Man, today is both good and shitty. Good cause I get to see some snow. That’s really about it for the good. Shitt for several different reasons.
1) I REALLY dislike my boss.
2) Work keeps piling up and the dumbasses here don’t understand that we need to do all of it and not just some of it.
3) I found out that 2 teachers from my highschool died over the weekend. Mr. Bowman and Mrs. Estes
(For those of you who knew Mr. Bowman…he was the coolest band teacher ever. I’ll see if I can get more details.)
4) I have to pay the bills
5) Just when I thing I have the policy figued out…I get it wrong and then get in trouble.
6) Stupid emails like this:
I meant to send this out earlier today, but I just wanted to say thank you for your dedication yesterday. We produced so much business that Support was able to deliver $148k yesterday. That is more than twice a very good day.
You folks continue to amaze. Keep up the outstanding service.

All-
Please let’s stay focused on producing as much business as possible today, so we can get it to Support to deliver.
Today is the last day of Feb and I would like to end with a bang!
Thanks,

7) Satruday marked 3 years since Katie’s sister died. It was an untimely death and it is still hard to think about it.
I’ll probably have more later. But for now that’s it.
I wish people would just shut the fuck up. I work with this guy (he’s old, crabby, and gay). No matter what, he complains. It’s a fucking job! Either do it or get the fuck out. For example (if you are reading this and have no idea what I’m talking about then that’s fine), but I guess that we were told to look at document X for a list of the products that we should be working on instead of looking into program Y. Well since I’ve worked here I always check both. I’m gonna run a little test to see how long it would take to look at them both. Oh look the test is over. By the time it took me to type that I could have looked at the document sitting in front of me AND then taken a quick glance up to look on the screen to see what was there. If there is a difference the I would have addressed it with the person who put the information in. HOW FUCKING SIMPLE IS THAT!
DAMN I’M ANGRY! I’m having a really shitty day and it’s only 7:48. I’m going to keep a running tally of my thoughts during the day and then at the end post. No one ever reads my stuff or comments so it doesn’t really matter if I put something up. But hey, now I can reflect back on things and cry alone at night. Back to MY story. I have to wear this gay ass AT.c shirt today for this lame “ribbon cutting ceremony” for a new location that we are moving to. Well, I’m gonna get back to work, until something else pisses me off.
Last night I went the Mardi Gras…again. I go at least once a week now (some times alone and some times friends join me). At this point it’s not for the girlies that are there. I go for the atmosphere and the friends that I’ve met that work there. Last night I was joined by friends taht I had never had the please of hanging out with. I had a blast. It was funny to watch Chris’s face when he was getting a dance. It was like watching a kid in a toy store. I think he had a good time, I mean he did walk out of there with a porn DVD.
Annie (my waitress everytime I go) is really cool. She takes care of me and I take care of her. I don’t have a real desire to “be with” any of the women that work there, I’m just glad I made some new friends. I know a lot of them by first name, and they know me when I come in the door now. It was suggested by Annie that I should become a bar back. This really intrigued me and I’m gonna go talk to the manager this week and get some more info. I could do it on Fri and Sat and get a pretty good ammnt. of money.
I have a few favorite girls there and as I was telling Dion (I hope I spelled that right). My taste in women is not based on their looks. Granted it’s nice but for me there is much more to a woman than her than just the way she looks. Take for example Heather (Cricket), she has beautiful eyes, a smile that make you HAVE to smile, and she is really a nice person. For me, the first thing I notice about a woman is her eyes. They are like a window to the true person. A lot of the girls that dance there won’t look at you when they dance. I’d rather look at a dancers face than her body to be honest. Oh well, to each their own right?
I’ll go back and I’ll spend more money, but that’s life. If I can’t have fun then I might as well not be alive.
On a side note, I would like to thank my ex for breaking up with me cause I now know how to be me…and I like the me that I am now!
For those of you who know (I’m mainly just putting this down not really worrying if anyone else replies or not), but Kathy called me the past 2 nights. Kathy is a great person, we decided to “just be friends.” But then again, you never know where life will take you. I’m up for anything and if she calls or needs me for something…I’m there.
Man I love being free.
