Tomorrow I have an interview for a job in my field. For fear of jinxing it again, I won't mention the specifics, but I will mention that I'm excited about the prospect of earning good money again, with good benefits and a consistent schedule. And, of...
Oh, I forgot to mention that Jaimee and I took Jack to Chuck E Cheese yesterday as well. Man, that kid is so cute it hurts. Sarah and Robert had been telling him that we were going to take him for pizza and root beer, so when we got there to pick him up,...
What a weekend. Jaimee and I joined the crew at Donnely's for a few drinks and some hot wings on Friday. Afterwards, she went home to sleep and I went down to see Fabish and Amy at Jimmy's. Good times. Jaimee left on Saturday morning to go pick up her...
Wow. Big day at work today. It was mostly uneventful until around 4:00 when Kieth got back from a short meeting with some of the upper-ups at the company. He walked in, a bit stressed out compared to when he left, saying he wouldn't be working at the...
Ah, sweet rain. A sign of Spring, and also a sign that I won't get another god damn customer for the rest of my work day. I went jogging this morning and found myself locked out of the house when I got home. I took the oppurtunity to do some yard work and...
Everyone should check out [my moblog][1] to see my awesome bowling scores. While I realize they're not exactly clear, they ready 128 and 181, respectively. Because I rock. Hardcore. [1]: http://wasson.textamerica.com
I have to say, [this is the sweetest thing ever][1]. I've said it before and I'll say it again. Everyone should have a camera phone. [1]: http://wasson.textamerica.com/
Reasons I hate working in the mall: The rock-hard stool I have to sit on with no backrest. People always asking me where stuff is. People always asking me what time it is. People always asking me everything about every cellular service that has ever...
I sent my resume to a company last night to fill a position as "Production Artist". I called this morning to annoy them, and I am in the pile of "considerations". I'm stopping by another company on my way to work to drop off another resume. Peace out,...
Jesus, I hate my fucking job. I hate retail. I hate knowing I have to go back tomorrow. On Monday I went into the store, already a bit pissed off because this week I start a new, shitty schedule with fucked up hours so they don't have to give us overtime....
Hoops last night for the first time in a long time. I love Hoops and I love the pizza and on Wednesday, I love the price. Jaimee and I got out for $12 which included 2 beers, 2 sodas, and 4 slices of the world's greatest pizza. Plus an encounter with the...
Today at 3:23, my second nephew, Peter Joseph, was born. As of right now, it's unsure whether or not our matching middle names are a coincidence. I'd like to think it's not. He was big by some standards, but not by Wasson standards. 8 lbs, 12 ounces, and...
As much as I love snow and wish we had a huge snowstorm this year, I'm ever so happy to see it melting and be able to walk around without a coat on without feeling cold. Even though it's still February, Spring is in the air and I can smell it. Ah,...
God, I want a new job. Any new job. My second nephew is due any day now, and I can't wait. Tomorrow I'm painting a mural in his new room. Tonight I'm working out. For at least a half hour. I haven't had a customer walk into the store in 6 hours. I'm...
2 things that make me so mad my head falls off: First off, work. Fucking work. I hate everything about it these days. I work almost every day in the shittiest hours, 1-9, at the shittiest location. I never get any sales and, therefore, no money. There's...
Every single night I work at GP, the fax machine rings. Every single night, it's not a fax, but a lonely voice on the other end. The machine simply beeps, and I hear this voice talking to her son's answering machine. The messages get more desperate and...
After a horrible January, sales for February are already grand. It's been a really cold few days, and yesterday was when it really seemed the coldest. Jaimee and I woke up to a house that was around 48 degrees, a little colder than we usually keep it...
So, my eBay auctions all ended today and I made just enough money with them to cover my heating bills for the month. Just over $200. I've still got quite a few things to sell, thankfully, so maybe I'll have some eBay money to burn instead of just to put...
I've got bills to pay and money to pay them with, which means the world is good today. Big plans for my day off today. I'm going to wash Jeepy, pay some bills, work on Optimus Prime, and pick Jaimee up at 5 to go to the poor people sale downtown. That's a...
It was 49 degrees in the building when I got to work today. That's way too cold if you ask me, which you didn't. It's been rising steadily since the repairman left, and it's now 62. But it feels way colder than that. I cut open my face yesterday shaving....
