The big problem like i mentioned in my prior blog on the subject there was no clear direction or advice given on what to do. You learned by making mistakes. Deadlines would appear, change, projects would begin, then end abruptly. My boss would deligate via instant messenger from his office. There weren't meetings... no discussion. you just showed up did something after doing something for awhile it got "better" if you weren't sure you asked your peers. Thats how he supervised.

More like inexperienced and incompetent boss but my friend becky's exboyfriend who worked there for three years said they were like that two years ago when he was there.

I am constantly disapointed with myself. I am amazed how many bad advisors I've had throughout my college career. None of my acadamic advisers would help me get an internship citing "thats your job to do on your own." Career advisers who work for purdue and alumni associations just say for me to make my resume bolder and use keywords. One suggested I apply for unskilled labour. They told me to get a job under a professor... I did that... twice. My grading papers job, and my current secondary job of telesurveying.... But I still can't get a real (ie salaried) job anywhere. I don't know what to do.

I got me a pretty used Toyota Prius (2004). Same Girl.

I like it! fun to drive, and maybe if I'm lucky, I'll save money on gas!

the wentz? seriously? nerd.

Discussion with ex was semi fruitful. at least I got my views out there. Whatcha doin this weekend?

see, im not the only one that thinks seeing him naked is a tragedy. nerd

is this a personal confession or just a general prediction....dont get me wrong i'd be pleased with either.....but the former is interesting if i may say so myself

Ha ha ha! I like to call my caveman self Gronk.

I picture myself more like the evolved cavemen of the Geico commercials.

Hahaha sooo true!
Some men just need a big slurp from a can of harden the fuck up

I hate it when my poo-by-mail arrives all shaken and broken.

= ewwwww!

if there's any snow up there, throw a snowball for me. I miss snow down here.

wish you could stop in Indiana on the way.

Wow, you still have plenty of time for your baby shower bits. No worries. Doing all of it while being tired sucks though.

i had changed my screen name during xmas/

Don't even get me STARTED on shit drivers lady, don't even think about it.... OH NO YOU DIDN'T damnit you've thought about it now ive gotta tell a story.

Every week or so I've either gotta drive to or from the airport to get to work or coming back from work. Its about a 40-45min drive depending on traffic and covers 4 pretty major roads in my lil city. I just got home from work yesterday and I'm very surprised to say that I actually wasn't nearly killed! Its been a long looong time since I could say that. I drive a little Suzuki Swift GL sedan, so its a fairly small car and I feel terrible every time I've gotta test its limits just so I avoid crashing the poor thing. I've totally forgotten the amount of times I've :
- Been cut off in a merging lane (you give way to your right here in Oz) because people don't check their blindspot when they merge.
- Had to take evasive action to avoid someone slamming on their brakes in the right hand lane (overtaking lane) so they don't miss their exit which theyve spotted way too late.
- Been thiiiis close to being sideswiped by the above while driving in the left lane because they just dont look let alone indicate.
- Nearly had a crash because STUPID FUCKING GODDAMN WANKERS think its smart to indicate onto a round-about while driving though it.... YOU INDICATE LEFT ONCE YOU'VE GONE HALF-WAY THROUGH IT, YOU DO NOT DOOOOOOOO NOOOOOOOOT INDICATE RIGHT WHEN ENTERING WHILE YOUR IN THE LEFT HAND LANE BECAUSE THEN IVE GOTTA SLAM ON THE BRAKES BECAUSE I THINK YOURE ABOUT TO CUT ME OFF THEN YOU JUST DRIVE ON LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED AND THEN YOU GET MAD AT ME WHEN I SPEED UP, CUT YOU OFF, EASE ON THE BRAKES AND BOX YOU IN LIKE THE SPEEDING, STUPID, NON-CORRECT INDICATING USELESS DRIVER THAT YOU ARE >=[

I'm not gonna even MENTION what I feel about people who park there cars on the road JUST ON THE ROAD in suburbs... "Oh im driving down the road lalala, oh heres the house im looking for ill just stop and park in the middle of the lane, im sure people coming around the blind corner 20m away doing 50kmh will see me"

*takes a few deep breaths*

Doesnt surprise me at all that last years road toll for my state was the highest in 7 years.


Good call on the pedometer though I've got one too, the other day at work I did 18,978 steps!! Pretty busy day that one.

Whoa, I just looked at one of your comments saying that drivers in Massachusetts aren't that bad. There is a reason that insurance there is one of the highest in the country (lived there for two years, I should know) Maybe if you stay on the highways things aren't as bad, but if you ever try to drive to the airport you'll discover some new expletives.

hah,yeah. where you been stranger?

In American Sign Language they are almost the same thing. (much like French actually)

But yeah I'm talking the lusty kind and not the Hannible Lector kind of hunger.
