Today I had a series of good events happen to me. I'm just going to lamely chronicle them as I wait for my brother to finish getting ready so we can go out for some fun on the town with my gf. Booze! lol. Or something to that effect.
1. Gainful employment!
That's right folks. I have a job again. An actual job with hours instead of me just going in whenever I get a phone call at the bar or the motorcycle shop. Because I'm going back to school at UMSL for writing in some delusional girlish dreams hope of maybe being able to do something with writing, most likely editing, for a living I've decided to simply go back to the tried and true work that is retail management. I'm the Assistant Manager of Things Remembered in Crestwood. Ohhh ahhhh. Tomorrow I go in and work out my salary and benefits details as well as make sure they know I want to go back to school so I can't work day shifts for at least two days during the week. I'm pretty sure they're going to give me everything want so I'm feeling good about that. My friends can't believe I'm working at this store because it's very... well... here, I'll link the website:

It's very sentimental and sort of girly but goddammit, I'm secretly girly! Or not so secretly girly. I dunno. But retail is retail and I like working in specialty retail stores. It's a lot more easy going and way easier to meet all your budget and sales goals. Plus the staff there is really nice. Although it'd odd I'm working with old ladies. And I mean old as in my manager is sixty something. Ah well. As long as they give me the starting salary I was told in the interview I'm happy. Oh yeah, and if you're reading this Pat this doesn't mean that I wouldn't take the FEMA job in Baton Rouge. I so would.
2. Edumucation!
I finally got the acceptance letter from UMSL. I was getting fucking nervous for some reason. Also my mom was staring at my crappy laptop this week and told me for my birthday she's getting me a new one so yay! I can do my writing on campus in between classes and use my laptop for taking notes in class. My handwriting is fucking notoriously bad. Ughhh. It's not good. Plus I can write fanfic on it and any other number of nerd things I love computers for.
3. Free at last!
No, I didn't break up with Michi because I'm feeling stifled or something. I found out I passed all my courses and all the paperwork has gone through so as of March 12th I'll be done at Sanford Brown and I'll have spent money on a degree I probably won't use and I would get pissed off at myself but what is the fucking point in that? Instead I'll type really long sentences in here and just be happy I'm out of that damn school and going into yet another school. My god. I swear to god I don't like being in college constantly. I'm just... what? A loser? Sad? Fucking aimless? Yeah, all of the above. But whatever. I don't like to fixate on what sucks about me. It's depressing. lol. Lets focus on the good. Uhm... I have large but still very firm breasts. 38 D! Woo and hoo.
4. Baby bro!
My little brother, Patrick, who I love probably more than anyone else on the planet, is home for spring break and we're going to be hanging out and seeing concerts. Yay! I love Rick so much, seriously. I'm seven years older than him and my mother planned having us that far apart so we wouldn't be competitive and it worked. We're really close and honestly, I just adore him. I'm so happy he's home. We're going to figure out when he has time off from school and look up bands we like are having concerts in the general area so we can decide who we want to take a trip and see. When I was sixteen I told him that I wanted to make sure we stay close no matter where life takes us so I asked him if he would like it if we took a trip every year together. Just for a few days or a week and we just hung out together. Just us. No parents, no friends, no gfs. From that year until this year we always went to Anime conventions. But we're not so much into that anymore so I asked him if he'd like to go see a concert out of town somewhere. I think a lot of our hanging out time over spring break will be picking what show to go and see.
5. Skinny bitch!
The first part isn't technically true but the second is fucking true as all hell. lol. I finally gave in and bought a scale. I haven't ever actually owned a scale. I mean, like ever. lol. But I bought one and I found out, since I step on other peoples scales all the time, that I've lost fifteen pounds since I've started my nerdy Roller Derby training regimen. Yay. I need to lose weight. But you know how I talked about my big boobs? Well, usually when chicks lose weight they lose their breasts, right? It's fat or whatever and they shrink. But since I'm a fucking freak when I lose weight my breasts get bigger. I'm fucking serious! It sucks because I'm really anal about having comfortable bras that support well because I'll be damned if I have saggy and freaky scary breasts that dykes like to flash at Gay Pride. Bra shopping with me takes hours upon hours. I usually go by myself for that reason. But I'm fairly sure I'm going to have to get at least two new bras soon. Bah. But still, losing weight!
End List!

no subject
Good deal about your boss. First step is interview but you know me, if I was offered a job the whole situation of moving wouldn't stop me from accepting it. I like moving. lol. Too much, I think. But dude, we should definitely go somewhere in the summer.
