Damn Face of the Earth…
May 6, 2008
I keep falling off it! I know, I’m sorry. I was away from home for a bit…hanging out with Booth and the Dragon. By hanging out, I totally mean working my sassy little butt off. We’re trying to get the shop up and running by May 15th. The dry wall just went up today; and since Friday we’ve been cleaning and knocking down walls and puttying etc etc. I’ve been a busy girl!
My [extended] weekend was awesome. Sunday was my mom’s birthday (as I mentioned) and we all made her dinner, and ate by candle light. It was pretty awesome. Then we watched Desperate Housewives 
The rest of the days I spent with Booth at Dragon’s, either working at the shop or hanging with the boys.
Tonight I had my second last drivers education in class lesson. We had another test (which I completely forgot about until like 1am this morning). I hope I did well, and I’m pretty sure I passed…knock on wood. I can’t wait for these in classes to be over. Just one more…then all I need to do is my in cars. Which start May 16th.
I still haven’t heard back yet from the rec group…and I’m not to sure what to say if I do. Apparently, the Program Director that I really liked resigned, effective immediately. Which means I will basically have no one on my side. Which means that the board will push themselves even more in the involvement of everything we’re doing, including scratching our asses and picking our noses. The rec group has gone down hill thanks to the board, and I don’t know if I can handle the amount of stress this job will have, especially now that there will be a new Program Director getting trained. There will be so much shit to deal with and I don’t know if I have the stamina to deal with it…you know? I’m sure old readers remember the thousands of issues I had over the summer (new readers, you can find me bitching and moaning about that job if you go to archives and then click on basically any of the posts from June 07 to August 07) with that job. I don’t want to deal with that again!
So maybe, just maybe…I’ll wait until I get my license, then apply at any number of the local group homes. The pay is just as good…if not better. The job would be less stressful (in the sense that I wouldn’t be worried about the whole organization going under while I’m in the payroll, cause that would be B-A-D!) Or Dragon offered me a job at the tattoo shop…as a receptionist or the part time piercer. Or both. Or maybe I’ll babysit full time for her, since she has two boys with special needs and once the shop opens she’ll be needing a full time babysitter. The boys can’t stay at the shop all day!
Anyways, I’ve got to catch up on some reading…and then go to bed. I’m not feeling well at all. I blame Rockstar Energy drinks and McDonalds, because since I had that I’ve been feeling like ass. No more Rockstar for me, no matter how good and wholesome it tastes. And I don’t care how cheap McDonalds is, NO MORE!

***Apparently there was an article about teen bloggers in Sugar Magazine. They interviewed me ages ago, and I was really looking forward to reading the article about it but I searched the website and can’t find it. Perhaps they don’t have articles available on the website? That’s probably it. If they did, nobody would buy the magazine…right? Unfortunately for me, Sugar Magazine isn’t available in Canada - or at least not that I’ve seen. So if anybody has a copy of it, could you send it to me by email or something? I really wanna read it! Just email it to oh.sarcastica@gmail.com. Thanks!

Can you email the person who interviewed you and ask them?

Avitable; I did a while ago, after the interview…but she never responded. I’ll try again though!

Ahh, you’re back! You sound pretty busy anyway. The rec group sounds like trouble, but at least you have several back-up options!
Ah, MacDonald’s my dear friend. How cheap, how tasty, but with it comes the regret and disgust. Real love/hate relationship there.

If the rec group is giving you this much trouble don’t bother, like you said you have other places you can apply after you get your license. Having a job and getting money isn’t worth your happiness.
But don’t listen to me I just went back to MY old job that I couldn’t wait to leave. Just because I’m a slave to the dollar doesn’t mean you have to be! Ha.

Jessica; Yep I’m back, for now anyways…who knows where I’ll fall next? Definitely a real love/hate relationship with McDonalds. Blech!
Sarah; It would be easier to work at the rec group because I know the job and all the clients…so that’s why I might fall victim to being a slave for the dollar
meh, money’s money and work’s work…most jobs are crappy. Mine is just literally crappy!
