Tales From The Office

So shoot me. I know its been ages. Just not into it I guess. I wonder why? I love my journal. There was a time when couldn't wait to get home so that I could write my entry for the day. Perhaps back then I had motivation and my site was a hell of a lot better than this. That's for sure. But nonetheless I loved it. I don't hold that same love anymore. And its funny cause back then I was losing all that weight and in a relationship. I was happy. Hmmm....That says a lot huh.

Well I'm still happy. Not losing any weight that's for sure, but imp happy. Somewhat. There are things I want back like that motivation I had back then. I would really love to have that back. That was awesome. But it's gone. I don't even know where to begin anymore. Anyway...

I've been working so that's good. Its boring work but its work. I'm struggling to keep my eyes open right now which is why I decided to do something else. I have this office to myself and so I can do this. The other job I had stuffing envelopes (mailing kits) was done and that was so much fun. Now I'm doing this data entry shit which is ok for now. But ugh b o r I n g!!!
Today should be my last day with this and I hope to god they don't have any more hidden around. I spoke to my "agent" (heh) and she said that there is another job waiting for me when imp done. Gotta love that!! This lady I'm working for is a stiff. The other job was so much more fun and our boss was very cool and hung out with us. The one I have now is just some old lady who barely talks to me.

So imp working on entering the data for these survey cards that they send out and my job is to input the data from all the responses. So when you get those cards in the mail asking you opinion someone actually does read them and your comments and can I just say. There are way to many people that are bored. You give them 3 lines to write an (optional) comment and they tell you their life-fucking story. I've gotten cards that had every blank space on it written with some kind of verbatim. And yes I do have to figure it out and enter it. 9 out of 10 times it has nothing to do with what the survey is about!!

It's also not your typical data entry job either. Instead of keying in the numbers, imp clicking. Which makes this process take so much longer than it has to be. I could have been done with this by day 2, but because I have to constantly look at the screen and click my options. Ughh.it Gets dragged out because the process is sooo slow. I wasn't kidding when I said b o r I n g !!!!!! Ugh..I'm falling asleep here. My eyes are burning from rubbing them.


Thanks to some psycho maniac killer, my hometown is now on the map. I'm sure you read about it. I actually found out when I got home yesterday and checked my email and my friend in Florida sent me the link to this article about the two girls who were killed about 10 blocks away from where I live. Two little innocent girls. What the hell could they have possibly done to make someone want to do this. You can't walk down the street for fear of someone kidnapping you or dogs biting you (yes this happened a few weeks ago to the roomie and her daughter) and now you can't even ride your f'ing bike in the park!! What the hell is happening to our society?? Its like you can't go anywhere or do anything anymore because you just not safe! You can't fly a plane without it blowing up, you can't go to McDonald without being shot, you can't even go to the f'ing post office for fear that some disgruntle postal worker will go insane.!! You can't eat the food for fear of poison, you can't even go trick or treating anymore without the fear of someone putting something in your candy. Why do we even bother to leave the house. Everyone is so quick to fight or kill. Nobody every thinks rationally anymore. The first instinct is to hurt. No thought. Just kill. I hope to god they find this bastard who did this. Last I heard, no evidence, no leads, and no suspects. Nothing. Which means that somewhere in my neighborhood. There is a killer at large.

Home Sweet Home.

Ok enough of that. So last Saturday Sarah and I went into Chicago again to finalize the admissions process. She got her schedule and her id picture taken now all we need to do is submit the paperwork for her housing there. This is kind of scary since we have to rely on her mom to get the paperwork done before the deadline. And well..Some things just don't take that much priority to her. So we'll see what happens.

The weather is getting nicer day by day. It's nice. The trees are starting to bloom again. Our backyard is looking really good. The room has been working her little butt off!! We now have a patio!! And she put down grass seed to some parts of the yard. There is still more to be done but so far it looks really good.

Its lunchtime now. I think I'm going to go take a walk. I've been gaining weight like crazy. One month till my birthday again. This is getting harder and harder every year. I really need to get this weight off again. It's killing me. I can feel it. But it's so hard when you're sitting all day long. The most exercise I get is getting to my car. Parking here is so bad that I have to practically park in Idaho if you don't get here early enough. And if that isn't bad just to get out of the building you have to walk 12 miles to do that! To get anywhere in this building is a hike. Which isn't a bad thing but when your sitting all day long and your legs are stiff and your feet hurt and you're so fat you can't breathe... It's a pain in the ass!!! But I manage and I get through it and one day I won't have these problems. Something will kick in and ill get that drive again. Blah blah blah...

Lets see what else has been going on. I'm still doing the work at home gig. Not as much. Mostly on weekends if were not doing anything. Its been a great help.

My car is slowly falling apart. It really doesn't do this commute very well. It hates traffic almost as much as I do. I pray that it doesn't break down on me on the highway. Sometimes it scares me a little and since I'm the only one in the world without a cell phone..I get worried. But so far she's hanging in there with me. I've had this car for 2 years now. I think that this is the longest time I've even had a car. Usually they are gone after a year. But she's a trooper. I just hope she last. Hopefully one day ill be able to get a decent car that I won't have to worry about. Like one or two years old instead of 10 or 12.

Well I think that is it for now. Hopefully ill be able to get this up on running on the site.
