Keep your friends close and your enemies closer

My shit list is not a good place to be.

| Here I leave my Xanga....
.... I know, I've had it forever, but I have had a revelation:
People who I no longer speak to, enjoy their company or even like read this blog and relish in my bad days and misfortunes and it's ridiculous.
I will post earth shattering news such as receipt of diamonds, graduation, stellar new jobs and the like, but otherwise, I have moved on to another blog (most of my close friends already are on there) and if you really want to know about it, let me know...and I'll still read my subscriptions- I can't just quit cold turkey ; )
Otherwise, I'm done with the highschool bullshit. Live your own life.

| I have a new lease on life.
I no longer have to:
-Work weekends
-Work at all for that matter
-Wear business suits
-Wear pantyhose
-Wear heels
-Schmooze with rich assholes
-Take orders from people without degrees
-Take it when my assistant manager oogles me
-Pretend I'm something I'm not
I had the most fantastic weekend of going to Foo Fighters/Weezer in Dallas with a good friend, sleeping in, lunching with friends, drinking with my mom (she took a jello shot with me at the bar for her friend's birthday!!) drinking coffee and shopping with my sister, visiting my family and playing with my puppy. The only thing that would've made it better was if Steven wasn't at work at the lakehouse all weekend : ( but he did call me a little typsy (ok so he didn't work the entire time!) and tell me how much he adores me and that if I want to call him my fiance, he's ok with that (I said no way, ring first!) but it was pretty cute. But I hadn't had a weekend like that in so long, it was glorious. I will miss (some of) the people and the diamonds but other than that, I am SO happy- they really did me a favor.
It came at a good time b/c I really need to focus on school. It's been such a crazy month- got a puppy, turned 21, had my dad leave for Mississippi for who knows how long, lost my job and started research... I have so much to do everyday its nuts. I have to dogsit for my sister's boss today- thursday, which means i have THREE dogs to take care of at two locations and I don't get to sleep next to Steven. He has been so so SO great for the last two weeks- I honestly think our fighting was b/c he was scared of what was going to happen when I turned 21, but now he knows that I'm the same and that I'm not going to go nuts like his ex did, and so now we're right back to the way we were. He had a job offer in Misssissippi too, $300+ a DAY for a month doing storm work, but he won't take it b/c he "emotionally, physically can't be away from" me... Hes so amazing...
On a side note- I love my AOII Sisters Who:
Text message me during chapter- from the same table
Lunch with me @ Cafe Plaid
Support my unemployment
Give me huge hugs everytime they see me
But I have no respect whatsoever for my AOII Sisters Who:
Don't pay their dues or come to chapter but eat the food on Tuesdays- WTF?!
Anyway, I need to do homework- yes I realize its not even 8am but I didn't fit any homework into the work-free weekend. Love ya'll. Have a good week! | | |
| Didn't see this one coming...
...I got fired.
On the phone...
Apparently they have to terminate all part-time positions. i.e. me. So, after I've been there for a year, making sales even when I'm part-time, they're letting me go, without saying goodbye to my friends, without getting my shit out of my desk, without getting to order my birthday watch, without calling my favorite customers...I don't know if I'm pissed off or just upset or what... I mean, I have never been fired, not once. And on the phone? Would you dump your bf/gf of ten months on the phone? And like what the hell, I make sales (20g not even 2 weeks ago) and I call my customers from home and hand sales over to people who will be there during the week, just like i was supposed to.
And what about my friends- the jewelers and all the girls in the back... So will everyone just find out when I'm not there Friday?
And the fucking money i WONT get to make at Christmas? Yeah, like 5 grand. At least I still have 2 pretty big commission checks coming. This is just ridiculous- I can't wait until they figure out that they fucked up- Meredith has already told me that she won't stay there if I'm not there, plus all my customers and everything.... shit.
I guess it's good b/c my parents don't want me to work this semester anyway, and my dad is making a ton of money doing hurricane cleanup, but i like to work and i loved my job... I'm going to apply to some jewelery stores around here, that would be easier anyway less driving and everything, but I might also like to do something that doesn't require a buisness suit and being professional...
Ok well that's my story. So no,I can no longer help you find your dream ring, I'm sorry girls... But guess what, I'm out the discount on mine too. | | |
| Last night was perfect!!
40 more guests @ Isis (about 10 had been at the Mont too), meaning I was lucky enough to celebrate my birthday with about 100 of my loved ones- how blessed am I?! Isis is an amazing bar with three separate rooms full of pillows and art and comfy couches, and the food and drinks were fabulous (seriously, best margaritas ever!!) and everyone had a great time. Several people brought me bottles of wine (looks like i need a wine tasting party soon!) and picture frames and photo albums and CDs, i totally was not expecting presents! My parents brought a cake, how adorable is that- my 21st birthday party at a bar and I got to blow out candles on a cake that said "Lyndi's FINALLY 21!!!!" (until we cut it and it said "ndi's ALLY 1!!!" haha )....and Steven was so wonderful, I've remembered in the last two days what it was like to fall in love with him. We had a rough week last week, there's no denying that, but we've made it through and things are great again.
As the chaos of starting back to school and everything's settling down, and with all the tragedy in our country right now, I can't help but realize how lucky I am. I love my life, my friends, my home, my family, my puppy, my boyfriend, my school (even though our football team forgot to show up Saturday, I still love this school), and I even love my job again (I did after all make a $20,000 sale all by myself yesterday!) I'm sorry to be so cheesy, but things are going so well, I have to sit back and count all my blessings.
Love you all!
