the one where he cuts and pastes

got my first rejection via email this morning. its from lowes. i’m both happy and sad. happy because home improvement stores are so out of my element, but sad that i have my first rejection.

so yeah. its raining. and i’m home. i’m truly going to try to get some housework done today. have lots of clothes to put away, and just some basic cleaning. plus i have no excuse. i have a laptop and wifi so i can movie my computer to whatever room i’m in.

everyone is telling me that my situation is probably a blessing. i wasn’t happy there for a while. in fact, it was pretty much a relief when i was let go. its just frustrating. yanno? i didn’t feel appreciated there. while i don’t mind repetitive jobs, i could tell you what i would be doing down to the second, because for the most part, the mornings were all exactly the same. i don’t miss the place, but i really do miss some people there.

yesterday, i had to do some running around. picking up applications to different places that i wanted to put some face time in. i had to stop at the super centre to get some cat litter and cereal and milk, actually parked next to my old store managers truck. i had no idea what he was doing there, but i made sure i was on the look out, because while i don’t want to avoid him, i have nothing to say to him. while i was sitting at lunch i saw him drive by.

almost every morning i would say that i wish i was at home. so much stuff to do at home. i’m home now, and all i want to do is sit my fat ass on the couch and just sit. i would always say i have such a list of stuff to do at home. well i still have this list of stuff to do. granted, its not a lot, its just some time consuming stuff.

alright, i should finish my cup of coffee, and try to tear myself off the couch and do some laundry, and put away clothes, and actually be of use around here.

wow, i can still be long winded when i want to huh?

Good morning everyone.

So its 2012 now. Only 3 more years until I get my hoverboard.

I have coffee, and I don’t plan on getting too dressed today. while I’d love to go to the mall today and maybe spend my gift card, I really don’t feel like driving into Providence today.

Was bored, got dressed and drove into Providence, and spent my gift card. Got a new coffee mug today, few movies (reefer madness, the big lebowski, and full metal jacket), and moustache socks.

We get home, and I see this on the front page of the Huffington Post. Oh happy days.

the one where he remembers he has a blog

it sounds like a classic radio station is broadcasting from upstairs right now. my uncle has been painting, and the music just changed from led zeppelin to every rose has its thorn.

its been a long week at work. in a store with mostly brand new assistant managers, its been difficult to say the least. there’s so much freight coming in, and no one can explain why its coming in. other stores have has numerous no truck nights, and we haven’t had one in at least three months. the store is bursting at the seams with layaway, site to store, and just regular stock.

set the tree up last week (i actually forget every night to turn it on, until i’m sitting down). we’re slowly gearing up for christmas here at casa mcbride. i think this weekend, i’m gonna try and convince crystal to get some pretty clothes on and we’re gonna take christmas pictures to send to my family back home. for this i think i have to find the tripod to set up her camera. maybe then we can wrangle some cats into the picture as well.

tomorrow, i buy crystal’s gifts for christmas. i’m 99% sure of what i’m going to get her. finally its gonna be a good christmas. we have money for gifts and everything. thankfully i got my 4th quarter bonus today, so that’ll help out _so_ much.

ok, i doubt anyone read to the end of this, so i’ll stop it now!
