Wednesday night I'm going to be away at a Valentine's party thing at a local nursing home. Every year we come and play games, eat cookies, etc...but also the one time of year I see a tentative 'friend' of mine who used to be in my girls group. She works there now, and we don't talk much...and I'm not looking forward to admitting that I like DGM (she has gotten me hooked on EVERY anime she ever liked, and I'm petty enough to be bothered by that XD).

Although all the same it will be nice to see her again. She was fun to talk to, even if she doesn't keep in touch. And I get sugary junk! Yummy, yummy sugary junk. Om nom nom.

Oh, that reminds me. I might be getting a job soon...fingers crossed that I will. Probably wouldn't be able to start until next fall, but that's not a problem for me. Newspaper delivering is okay for a few bucks, but a nice steady part-time job would definitely be welcome at this point, since I want to start paying rent to my folks (I'm legally an adult, and they need the money, so it would work out pretty well). I should get paid a lot for looking after the neighbour's cat recently for a week and an extra weekend before that,
which is great.

Anyways, that should be enough moneytalk for now. I'm still buried in home, so I can't promise I'll be on MSN anytime soon. HOLD OUT FOR SPRING BREAK! I'LL BE FREE THEN! =D

I am VERY close to quitting you. Not only is the pay lousy (and something I rarely get on time), but the fact you haven't delivered the papers yet even though it's way past the deadline really annoys me. Why didn't you give me any notice before that there were problems printing them?

But what REALLY bothers me is that you promised to drop them off today so I could deliver them tomorrow...and you have roughly one hour left to do so. Now, that's bad enough as it is, but considering I had an engagement tomorrow I can't break (I'm NOT missing the first meeting I've had with my best friend for three or four weeks!), I'm getting anxious. You haven't emailed, and I count myself lucky I even got a call back.

Worse still, it's probably going to rain. Like it has pretty much every time I've delivered them. And if you deliver them to my neighbour AGAIN (what is this, the third time?), I'm bloody well quitting.

I just thought I'd like to remind you guys that I'm not dead (yet) and I still haunt the internet. Things have just been going really well on the carpal tunnel healing front, and I've been so busy doing other stuff and avoiding the computer I haven't had time to do much of anything. Good news is, if my wrists continue to heal at this rate, I'll be back in no time! ^^
