Filled With Work

I love working! I love love love it! I've become a workaholic.


I work at a day camp with 15 three to seven year olds from 8:30am to 12:30pm, Monday - Thusday. I also work at Tim Horton's five to six days a week. My shift is 2 - 10pm. I often work 12 hours days and I come home completely wiped out and tired, but you know what? I absolutely love my two jobs.


In the mornings I get to hang out with an awesome group of kids who love me and look up to me. They draw pictures for me and come to me for help. They treat me like a celebrity. Sure I am on my feet all morning and running around doing everything from art projects to underdogs and clean up, but its so much fun and such a work out. The only down side is
sometimes I'm wrist deep is poop that I have to wipe off some little girl/boys ass, but its not so bad.


Then I get an hour break before I have to head off to Tim Horton's where I make coffee and sandwiches and bagels and grab muffins and donuts. "Is that for here or to go?" I mop floors I clean counter tops and scrub bathrooms. I change over the soups. I clean the sandwich stations. I fill drive through orders. I stock shelves and wash dishes and I get to hang out with my awesome coworkers and I have a blast doing it. I love it, its great.


These are the best two jobs ever. I make ten dollars an hour for day camp and 8 bucks an hour from Tim Hortons and I have so much fun doing everything I do that when I come home and pass out and wake up in the morning and realize its my day off and I have nothing to do. I become so lost and don't know what to do with myself. I love working THAT MUCH.


Usually my friends are all working too so on my day off I don't do anything. It sucks. I wish I could go into work on my day off and keep working..... I think I'll talk to my supervisor about that. I don't think they will let me because he already gets upset when I don't take my half hour break.


I haven't seen Meg-Meg in ages. She's working or with her boyfriend or I'm working. Times haven't seemed to meet up right just yet. Kayte is in England and Jamie works the morning shift at Timmies so I don't get to see her except for an hour on the change over. Kelsey just left for Europe as well. I don't mind though, I'm making more friends. Kyle, Patrick, David, Chelsea, Rob, Emily seems nice.


There is Sam... but he's hard to work with because he's sexist and a know it all... he also NEVER thinks before he speaks and has an air about him of "Whatever you are going to say, I'm still going to think you're an idiot." He's quoted for saying "HA, I like that I have the power to piss off all those girls"..... right because making us dislike you is "power." Go suck your cock some where else.


P.S. <3 I can't wait to take time off work to see you. xo

Getting Even Better

So yesterday I finally got my drivers license. After working myself up into a fit about how I know I was going to just fail my test again, to my surprise I managed to parallel park perfectly on the first try. I drove around with this very by-the-book kind of man, he didn’t even want to chit-chat other then to brag to me that he did nearly 2000 drivers examinations just last year alone, but made a point to say that he didn’t get paid extra for it. He kept his voice void of any emotion the entire test and gave off this feeling of I’m just going to fail you.


So when the test was done and we pulled back into the DMV and I parked the car he announced to me that I had achieved driving status by saying. “You were one second away from failing this test.” I asked him what he meant and he told me that when we where at a stop sign intersection I started to pull away to make a right turn on red in a no right turn on red zone, when suddenly the arrow flicked to green and made it okay for me to drive out. He said that if I was a second earlier then he would have had to fail me, which to him sounded like it would have been fun.


But now that I have my license I feel so much better.

So Happy

So today I went into Tim Horton's just to talk to Kayte while Jamie and Megan got something for lunch. I was just standing around when the manager comes out and asks me about my application I had put in a week earlier. Five minutes later I am sitting down in a short but simple interview with a man name Bob and he asks me some easy questions and followed by the “So why do you think I should hire you question?” I told him.


“Well, I have had some good experience with cranky customers and their picky food orderings because when I was working at a hot dog stand I had to make sure I got it right when the little old lady I was serving wanted her mustard on the bottom under the hot dog or on top, or when the little kids just want the hot dog, and the bun, but separate. Also I’ve been working for years with very small children which has given me more patience then I could ever need.”


He seemed to like this answer and asked me all the hours I could work, as soon as I could work, and what size I would need for my goofy little uniform that I will be forced to wear. He said I was exactly what he’s been looking for and put me on for the 2pm to 10pm shift seeing as I will already be working mornings for the Back To Basics day camp. I’ll also be working weekends but by the sound of it, it seems relatively easy to get off of work so planning to go visit mike shouldn’t be too hard.

I got to talk to Mike tonight on the phone and I have to say, he’s wonderful. We are miles and miles apart and I miss him terribly but the long distance isn’t hard to deal with. I absolutely love hearing from him and even though we don’t talk on the phone every night or even on the internet every night. I don’t feel like we have slipped away from each other at all. Our conversations are always fun and I can tell he misses me with out having to ask him if he does. (Though I have asked him but that’s only because I wanted to hear him say it. Hehe.) He’s so good to me. You hear stories about how the distance just rips people apart but Mike and I seem to have this unspoken level of understanding. We both care about each other, so why should this time apart change anything.

Filled With Disappointment

I can’t, I just can’t believe she’d be so stupid. It kills me to say it because I love her, but god damn it Jamie you have been making some of the worst choices for yourself lately that I have ever seen you make, and it really makes me think a lot less of you.


Now I know we all do stupid things from time to time, and I’m not one to talk because I sure have made some poor relationship choices in the past. Like dating Kinger… but Jamie, you know Ash is a horrible choice for you to make, you have even told me he is. You have admitted yourself he makes you nothing but bitter and angry.


Why, after he has tossed you around and used you for TWO YEAS that you would agree to dated that ugly Cro-Magnon piece of shit? Has he benefited your life in any way since he has come into it? I highly doubt it, because you and I have both said that his bad points far out weigh his good points.


What really scares me now is that you might actually have sex with this creature. You have told me the only reason you haven’t is because the two of you haven’t officially been dating. Do you really want to give that monster sex, not to mention your first time, when he doesn’t disserve it?


“Well he does offer to buy me food when we go to Terra Cotta.” Yeah? Does he do anything else for you? No. Mike has been very kind to buy me food at Terra Cotta too, he’s also driven me all the way to Rochester in the rain because I mentioned I had a craving for Ihop. Has Ash ever done something like that for you? NO, he hasn’t.


The last thing I remember him doing at Terra Cotta was him being a whiny ass hole over the phone because you were not up in the suits playing World Of Warcraft. He actually told you to stop hanging out with me, who you hardly get to see in Alfred, so you could go play the shittiest game known to man. Then, what do you do? You reward him by saying “Well I’ll bring you something back from Terra Cotta.” So you bring him a Jones Soda and when he gets it, he is an ungrateful piece of shit and says that it’s the wrong kind but he’ll drink it anyway…


What’s going to happen when you go over to Italy, Jamie? Are you going to do what you have been telling us, which is do a lot of growing and find a good man? I doubt it. If I know you, you’re going to have an even harder time letting go of this stupid relationship you’re in because now that you have it you’ll do anything to keep it.


Go ahead, try the long distance, you and I both know it wont work. He’s going to smash what ever is left of your heart and walk away and get another girl, like you know he is so good at doing. Need I remind you of the time that he fucked another girl in the shower while you two were trying to start a relationship?


I’m done, I don’t want to rant anymore, its making me cry that one of my best friends could do this to herself. When she knows it wont work and is only going to hurt herself.

Cold and rainy day

So yesterday was strange day. It started off by being harassed more and more by Morris on AIM. I just ignored it and called the police. They talked to me got my story and told me that there really isn’t anything they can do about it.

I just started crying and cleaning everything in my room as fast as I could and I even went into the kitchen and got everything ready to bake cookies but I realized we didn’t have everything I needed. I was so distressed. After that though I went and hung out with Matt and Sean for a while. It was actually very nice.

Then this morning, Morris messages me again, and I figure. Since the police can’t do anything, why not just talk to him. So I spent the entire morning talking to Morris. At first he was angry and the same old harassing statements but I talked him down off his high horse and made him understand. Now he’s back to normal and apologized for everything that he said to me. We have been chatting casually since then. Its actually kind of nice in a weird way. At least I don’t get told I’m a slut every day now.

Hopefully later this evening I will get together with the girls and hang out.
