Another birthday.

First thing I get to do later on my birthday is.... go try to get my license renewed, again. Don't ask.

Then, see what, if anything I get for my b-day, or if anyone specifically notices.

I need a job, but I can't get off my now-38-year-old ass to find one. I do NOT what another call center job. But, what else can...

I've no idea what I want for my birthday. Well, there are a number of things I *want*, but they're kinda out of the realms of possibility:

1. A 2010 Tornado Red VW GTI with everything except the leather seats package.

2. A job paying much more than my last one so I can comfortably afford #1

3. Insert wish for soulmate/wife/mother-of-children here.

Problem is,...

You know, this job search is going to be a nightmare.... I look at my resume, and realize I haven't actually used any of the skills on it - my last two jobs were in call centers, helping stupid people fix their pcs.

But, I need to look for a job... the job in Rochester I was told about, would be a minimum 90 minute...

Well, my new iPod nano showed up today! It is appropriately awesome... but I'm a sucker for a new red nano.

I really hope things turn around for my brother, though - his car was leaking transmission fluid, so I followed him to the dealer. When he parked it, it was literally spewing it from under the car. He's had a pretty rough summer financially...

I chickened out calling Angelica... more like I didn't even try to get around it.

I mean, I'm 37 and single, and every time I've tried to guess what a woman thinks of me, I've been wrong... so when I think Angelica may like me... that thought is immediately shouted down.

I wish I'd gotten lucky just once in the 37 years before now. Cause...

I need a new job. hope my brother's co-worker gets back to me soon. He already knows I don't want another "call center" job. I want a job where they bring the patient to me.

I want to call Angelica (from work)... she got fired from the same call that fired me. 37 years old and I'm still too scared to call girls on the...

I hate being paranoid.

Someone blocked me in SG chat, and I've no idea why. The person looked at my cam for a second, and then blocked me. I was just sitting in my chair without a shirt on. Nothing strange, and I'd talked to this person a few times, and never got any signals that I was saying anything inappropriate - heck, tonight, the...

The customers didn't get any smarter past three days. Tomorrow's my Thursday, so hopefully it will be nice and dead, without many callbacks to do.

I'd like to thank Alyss for her gift tonight, and I can't wait to see her sets!

So, I picked up CSI season 5 on DVD, and not only did fye charge my card TWICE for it because their system was messed up, there's a spot on disc 1 that pauses for several seconds on my 360, saying "Currently trying to read media", then keeps playing, but plays flawlessly on my PC's DVD drive.

Three days off and I didn't get anything...

Wow... so many great sets went up today. I think I'm going to run out of the word "Awesome". Must find others...
