Things that bother me:

Cell phone services. Especially stupid ones with a stupid annoying mascot like Verizon.

Parking patrol. How i despise you, parking patrol. 

Paying rent and deposits on apartments. I'd rather barter with baked goods than pay you money.

Girls who don't follow through. I should probably elaborate on that, but trust me. It's not sexual.

I know I've been a bit of a hermit. I suppose I'm still pretty bummed out about the being-in-this country-thing and not-hav

ing-money. As the sun finds a welcome spot in our sky, however, I find living in the real world becomes more welcoming, as welcoming as the world can be when you're not sleeping, that is. 

That said, I am off to visit the Land of Nod.

Today is my day off so I finally went out to dispute an outrageous verizon bill. After a few tears I think it might get sorted. My mother thinks I pull out the tears too much, but she just doesn't understand that I'm very sensitive. Death? No, I can handle that. A bill I can't pay? OMG, give me a tissue.

My little siblings sent me thank you cards for the gifts I gave them for Christmas so I went by the dollar store to pick up some frames for it. While there I noticed that the dollar store sold pregnancy tests and vaginal cream. It may just be me, but if I was in the position to need either, I think I would break for it and pay the extra ten dollars. Borrow the cash from a friend if needed. I'm just saying; it would make me feel better.

I am also going to attempt to find a second job today. Actually, I'm just going to walk down to Christos then set up an appointment to donate my plasma. My motivation level has plummetted with the temperature. I do sort of want a server job so I can make tips. 

Don't forget, I'm also working for Glaciers Cafe who will cater all your food needs no matter the budget! Give me a call if ever you need some delicious food for your next event.

Yay! I got my cell phone situation mostly sorted. DON'T Text Me! Because after the 22nd your text will be blocked as I cannot afford texting. :( The cell phone I bought on ebay never arrived. Fuckers. 

The new year came in well. I was voicing my thoughts on moving, leaving Minneapolis, to the new chef at my work and he and the owners pleaded that I stay. Ego boost, yeah, but, dammit, I'm not even salaried! I'll either have to start doing a lot more catering and seeing pay for it or get a second job if I'm going to end up staying there. 

In other news, I'm hanging art tomorrow at Salon De Pugh. You had better go check it out!

And that's that! I'm going to go get more prepared for my first hang :)

I hope you lovelies all had a spectacular 2008 and look forward to the year ahead!
