Yesterday was fairly crappy at work, but Sundays seem to bring out the most inconsiderate in customers. I won't bore with details, but time all but stopped, and by 5 pm, the store was TRASHED. As if upon entering the store, people emptied their pockets of receipts, candy wrappers, etc, and intentionally moved stuff from one section to another to leave it there.

I digress....

Got a "talking-to" at work today, which is something that probably would have sent me in to a fit of hysterics, were it not over something I could give two shits about. I was holding back the laughter.

Lately, I suppose, I've been having some altercations with a younger employee who has technically worked at our store longer, but is still in high school, and...

Work has been going surprisingly well as of late- probably to do wtih the lovely weather bringing folks down to my god-forsaken tourist trap. But I've been pumped up about work- not moping around or anything, which is peculiar for me.

Shit. Gotta do my taxes. Gotta find my w2s, and call the IRS about the one that never showed up. Crappity crap. I'll do...

Work- not entirely wretched! Actually made a full 8 hours! Am stunned!

They did, however, re-limit my goddamn internet access. No more Digging for 4 hours. Boo.

Goddamn. I knew I should have jumped in the shower when I had the chance. Asshole roommate has been in there about 20 minutes. Will be in there another 15 primping, that jerk. I need to shower before 11, so I can make it to work on time.

GRAH. Just HAD to get myself caught up on Scary Go Round.

Now I have no hot...

Nah. We're gearing up for the busy season. I should know these things by now. 2 years in Old Sacramento, Christ, you'd think I'd have learned something.

Caught some of the Oscars tonight. Ellen, to me, is genuinely funny. (And fucking fortunate-- Portia deRossi? Shit, I'd probably go gay for her.) Mostly watched episodes of Miami Ink.

Surprise, surprise, bad roommate can't afford to live...

My soul continues to be sucked away working in Ye Olde Sacramentoe. Tonight flew by. When important people were at my work, I had busywork to do, and I even did something in Excel! WOO. As soon as my superiors left, I dredged my way through 17 pages of Digg stuff. What an exceptional timekill. Sold a painting over the phone, pleaseohplease say I get...

Another Rubi-2uesday. 2 dolla' pints at Rubicon Brewing Co. Do I feel like going? Not really. I feel like vegging in front of the tv and doing nothing all night. Will I go if Bryan wants to? Of course.

I thought quitting one job would make me pumped about my other job. Guess I just hated them both equally. Working in Old Sacramento is either...

Finally got a long awaited haircut. Went shopping with the WeedGnomes, always fun, though I always get sucked into their munchies spiral, and end up eating more than they do. Almost polished off an entire bag of Salsa Verde Doritos. Not cool, man. (However, they were oh-so-sinfully deelish.)

Tomorrow I begin my first week of single jobbitude. I don't know what I will do with...

I come home from my last day of barista hell to FIND poop on the landing in front of our front door. BITCHIN. I love me some puppy crap after an annoying day's work.

Naptime, then shower, then back to the tourist trap that is Old Sacramento to cover my coworker's shift at Retail Heck.

Tomorrow, though? Tomorrow is ALL MINE.

PS- Anyone else loving...

Just got a new computer! Woot. 'S'got the built-in iSight camera doohickey, hence the new pictures of duboius quality. The room behind me is an absolute disaster area. We've been trying so hard to keep the rest of the house clean that our bedroom tends to get trashed.

My second paycheck in a row bounced. Thanks asshole. Fuck Cafe Hell. I'm done with it. Things...

Life is not completely shitty! Just mostly.

I'm working too much, and it's making me crazy. Living with three guys is STILL a struggle.

More checking in than actually blogging. I am alive, I am far too busy, our computer went caput, and we are relying on a roomie's computer for internetting purposes.

I was unintentionally nosy this morning while cleaning our bedroom, and I...
