I got home classes and my neighbor's cat was sitting on my porch. She's adorable:

I'm going to start a container garden this weekend, and I'll be cultivating sweet peas (my favorite vegetable) and cat grass (for the cats in my life).

Later in the season I want to get some jalapeno plants and grow some peppers, but my mom wants me to keep them far away from her bell peppers.

And I've finally been bitten by the vidya bug. I started playing Tradewinds on Steam.
 
I'm having a shit day today. My boss decided they weren't going to consult me in changing my schedule around next week because my coworker is off and I end up working all day next Friday - which I specifically ask not to work because it's the only day in the week I get to spend with my boyfriend because of our conflicting schedules. I know this sounds petty, but they didn't even bother to tell me this until I heard them talking about it today and I only saw my bf for a few hours Thursday because I had to run errands for school Friday. Like, honestly I'm so sick of covering shifts for my coworker. I have about a month's worth of vacation time that I don't even get to take but they seem to have endless excuses to take off.

Also, someone that I used to be really good friends with made a really dick remark to me before about something stupid and I'm really just at the level of "fuck it all" that calls for copious amounts of alcohol and taco bell. And it's only Tuesday.
 
Hey guys, did you know that sleeve that comes with a hot pocket is important and if you don't use it and choose to instead wrap your hot pocket in a napkin while microwaving it catches on fucking FIRE!?!?!
The people I work with :lol:
No one was burned and the fire was contained in the microwave, the only bad thing is the whole break room smells.
Also the smoke from a burning hot pocket is yellow and not grey.
 
I'm getting nervous about being able to start the summer semester of classes on time. The school's all like, "oh, yeah, we want you, we totally have everything laid on, you're accepted--we just need an official copy of your transcripts!" But I had them sent two weeks ago priority mail and I have a receipt, a tracking number, and e-mail verification. I need to get my financial aid laid on before June at the latest, otherwise I won't be able to get my post-9/11 GI Bill benefits and I'm going to have to pay for things out of pocket and maybe pick up additional seasonal employment--which would be hard for my family. :( I hope everything comes together. Going back to the university tomorrow to follow up.

Also I'm taking a break from alcohol for a while but I really want a stiff drink. :(

On the upshot, I had an awesome day at work and I'm making a killer dinner for my family tonight. Homemade chicken parm, caesar salad, and garlic bread.
 
So I've been working like crazy lately and haven't had much time to post here.

On the bright side, the snowstorm we were supposed to have completely missed us. THANK GOD and the Bear. So sick of snow days.

Also, my new job is going great. Performance reviews from my managers have been overwhelmingly positive, and I'm finding myself loosening up way faster than I thought I would. Also, I can't express how much I like taking home envelopes full of cash every night. Who needs payday, anyway?
 
I mentioned my fear of telephone conversations, right?

Well, you know one thing that really doesn't help? "Too ensure "quality care", this call may be monitored." So they think tape recording my hideous voice which I already hate using on the phone is "quality care"? I guess there's a reason for everything, and the world don't revolve around what I hate and don't like.

Anyway though, today I managed to do my business over the phone without losing my composure or crying because my brain lost its focus mid-conversation (which it thankfully didn't).

In other news, my car is still grounded, but thats only because things take time to do. Especially living on an island community. Pieces need to be shipped via boat, etc.
 
One of my least favorite things to hear at work is, "Feelin' strong today, Nick?" *sigh* :lol:
 
I almost passed out in Lab. Think I might have caught something. Probably gonna stay home tomorrow.
 
So yesterday I was eating a big turkey hoagie and watching WrestleMania VII. I had a bit of a scare when I almost started choking. Afterwards I lol'ed to myself picturing someone finding my dead body next to a turkey hoagie with WrestleMania VII on the TV .
 
Paid rent, paid healthcare bill, bought new CTA pass for next month, swept floor. I'm such a grown adult right now I can't even handle it. It's like pulling off a Street Fighter combo.
 
Since my car accident in December, I haven't really had much use for my license 'cuz I've been getting carpooled. Well, I lost it somehow. Going to Motor Vehicle tomorrow to get a new one.
 
I'm up-to-date on YGO Abridged again! Now I'm watching DBZ Abridged.
 
still no job, but yesterday when walking along i found an ipod wedged into a dirty snowbank, where it had actually probably been for months. could be up to 7 months even, who knows. years ago in high school i found a weird cable out in the snow, and since i didn't know what to do with it i put it somewhere and forgot about it, but now i'm wondering if that cable would work with this ipod. because while i don't want to say what model it is in the microscopic chance someone will claim they lost it and i'd have to ask them its model, contents and where they lost it, but you can probably tell what model it is.

my tastes in music are extremely lacking and really dull and non-hipster, so this is the first time in ages i got exposed to a broader range of music. so yeah it still works.
 
Got my duplicate license, Chinese for lunch, and finished that stupid paper. Also my back hurts for some reason. So half and half.
