 | Current mood:  restless Yay, so this is my first post on this thing. I'm listening to some fabulous music. I spent the majority of my day today downloading music and videos. I fell in love with the new Lindsay Lohan video for Rumours, so I got the song, but couldn't find the video. I also got the Gwen Stefani song, What Are You Waiting For, as well as a couple remixes. What else... Oh yeah, a Buffy episode from Season 2. I've also been searching in vain for a version of "You Were Always On My Mind" that I heard at Alibi, but no dice. So if anyone has it, lemme know.
So I've spent the majority of my day vegetating, and now I'm bored and think I'm gonna go out with David for a drink or two over in Tampa.
This is a random rant that I wrote earlier on my website: After The Rain
You can read it in its entirety there...
Anyways, work: I was working valet for this guy who didn't pay me any hourly wage and screwed me over several times in a row with crappy jobs where I didn't make any money. So I started working for a valet company that managed parking for the Marriott Waterside in Tampa. I guess it is the only four star hotel in Tampa, but unfortunately, that doesn't mean that people who stay there tip any better. Yeah, but that job sucked because I was only getting paid $2 an hour for 9 hour days, and it was obvious after a couple days that it was totally not worth my even being there. But I wanted to hang onto that job until I got something else, just because I didn't want to be completely broke, and even though it wasn't much, I would at least have enough money to eat and put gas in my car on the days that I worked. Unfortunately, I ended up spraining my knee one night at work. My leg had been getting progressively more and more sore throughout the week, but the last night, it was terrible. So I haven't been working there for about a week.
Last week though, I got a call about an interview that I had been on with a Florida state agency. I got the job and I'm starting on the 29th, which is less than a week away now, but it's driving me crazy not having anything to do in the meantime. I don't want to spend money I don't really have, so I end up sitting at home all day until boredom sets in. But I'm excited about starting this job, I'm gonna have my own office, and work with cool people, and get paid quite well. :)
So Thanksgiving is Thursday, and it's kinda wierd, cuz I won't be able to go home or be with my family. Thanksgiving isn't a major holiday for me, so I'm not too concerned, but I guess it's gonna be a practice run for Christmas, because I won't get my first real paycheck until right before Christmas and I'll have to spend it on other things this year. I won't be able to get a plane ticket. But right now, I think I'm planning on visiting in the spring. I don't know how it's gonna work, but I'll probably go up for some holiday and spend a couple days in Pittsburgh and a couple in Meadville. That's the plan at least.  | Currently listening:
