So I went to that big event Sunday evening and I'm really glad I did because the person that invited me was really happy to see me. I ended up having to step outside twice to either keep from crying or to blot my eyes because I felt bad about even thinking of skipping out on it.... that and being around so many people that...

morning glory is that annoying flowering plant you see taking over the edgings around town. it's got heart shaped leaves and trumpet-like flowers. the purple ones contain enough of a compound called LSA, a close chemical relative of LSD, to make you see things. i plan on using it ritually to help hone my connection to the piscean things in life.
i was responding to your OBE where someone was scratching or tugging at your shoulder. the one that happened between 2 and 2:14 AM.
yeah. good day?

I'm having an insecure moment, or evening should I say. I hate these. They happen every once in a while. A couple things have happened where I'm unsure of my place with people despite my efforts and I'm at the point where I just feel like sleeping in way to late tomorrow and possibly skipping out on a big event tomorrow evening because that's one...

I take it back.
I didn't settle on dates yet for my trip to Europe.... I've added another week.
So now I'm doing 11 weeks in Europe and that should probably be final because I don't think I can afford any more than that.

New plan:
Ireland - 6 days
UK - 2 weeks
Netherlands - 4 days
Belgium - 3 days
France - 9...

I bought my first ticket for my trip the other night biggrin
I've finally settled on the dates for my trip... beginning and ending dates, fly days between European countries, and when I should probably move on to the next country once I'm in continental Europe. I've also decided to spend 2 days in NYC on my way back home. I've picked my tickets out and...

So my job ended a week and a half ago. The Monday after my last journal, I talked to the parents and told them that I was unhappy about losing so many hours unexpectedly. After some drama, it came down to them offering me 8 extra hours, which barely made up for another unpaid day off (2nd in 2 weeks). So I clarified with the...

Sorry to hear that your most recent job didn't work out. The whole idea that someone can take you on to do a job, whether it be to look after their child or anything else, without first agreeing how many hours per week they need you to do, strikes me as being very wrong. It doesn't seem right to take someone on in a job and then say, "Oh, actually we are only going to give you half the amount of hours each week now". They should agree that they want you to work X amount of hours and then pay you for X amount of hours and if it so happens that they decide that they wont need you to look after their kidlet on Thursday because they are off out on a family trip to the seaside, or the pantomime, or whatever, then they should still pay you (and why not, that's how it works in my job - if we get sent home early due to a power cut we still get paid). After all, if you are child minding, then the hours you are working make it hard for you to find another part-time job with which to supplement your income so you are somewhat dependant upon the whims of kidlet's parents.

Good luck in finding a new job soon. smile

I hate work right now.
I'm starting to really, really dislike the mom I work for.

So... grandma's in town (the dad's mom). She got into town on Tuesday afternoon/evening. The mom has decided that she wants to make me go home early and let the grandma take over once the kiddos go down for their afternoon nap (between 2 and 3pm). I normally don't...

My dog started barking this morning as I was getting ready for work. My mom looked out the window and saw a man dressed in all black with a ski mask on getting back into his car at the end of our driveway.
For once, that dog did something right... very right.
