so... i havent posted in a little while. lemme bring you up to speed.
working a lot. getting kinda nowhere fixing my money situation. breaking even, ya know? but breaking even isnt cutting it for the plans i have. remember friends, 2006 is the year of change. so it is written, so it is done. here is where i've applied to remedy my situation:
paul frank- customer service rep (meh, if the $$ isnt good, im not going here!)
Tustin PD- property/evidence tech ( nice $$$$!!! but wouldnt get it for almost a year due to background investigation)
City of Huntington Beach- meter repair tech (yeah i know, but dude, check it out-$3500 to start.and i get to be in downtown HB all fricking day. OUTSIDE. in shorts. i can also wear me peircings. and maybe color my hair not quite so disney. most importantly not in an office which i dread terribly. Muffy Vander Snatch does not do well confined to her desk.)
City of Chino P/T K9 Agitator ($25 to be bitten by police dogs. dammit i would kill for this job. this. is. my. new. dream. job. no kidding.)
some company in Newport beach as a human resources cooordinator ( i worry about the amount of computer work. stupid wrists)
Sole- human resources coordinator (again- heavy computer work)
who knows. maybe i will get hired somewhere. maybe i wont. i wont go anywhere if the $$$ isnt WAY better than disney. plus, if things go the way they should for my evil plan, i may stick around for a bit yet. i wont be rushing into anything. i cant screw this up.
oh, i also applied for my son to be a fitting model for Paul Frank. weird, it's like the gig was made just for him. he is the exact measurements they need. it's 2 days a week and a fitting model is just that. they would have him put on the clothes to make sure they fit right. i say if we do that gig me and jake split it 50-50, seeing as i am driving him and ...well...dressing him and such.
extra cash wherever i can get it. pay the bills and save what i can.
g.t.c.o. dont forget. i sure havent. i am lying in wait right now. laying low and taking it day by day. im not taking any bullshit. :)
i have spent a lot of time thinking this week about where my life is going and what i want out of it. im getting closer to something i think. i am definitely a lot more at peace with myself. i have been able to sleep more. not enough yet, but more. there are things that i will have to deal with that are unpleasant and make me sad, but in the end, i will be a stronger person for it. living with pain and hurt is only killing me. and i am just not built to accept defeat. so at some point, it will be ugly again. but not right now. not while i am in limbo. right now i conserve my energy. and wait.
i'm still not all there yet, things are still totally jacked in some areas of my life, but on a good note for once-i am starting to feel like me again, which fucking rocks because i havent been myself for a very long time. maybe even as long as a couple years. again, im just taking it one day at a time. im just enjoying the good times as they come- every second i spend with my kids, every phone call from a friend or sibling, every chance i get to hang with family or friends(which of course isnt all that often-with everyone being so busy, but hey, i take what i can get!!), a great day at work,or just going to the beach.. even the small shit right now like being able to pay a couple bills on time,or a great cup of coffee from starbucks.im just trying so hard to get away from the negativity and focus on the positive. i'm trying.
thank you to those who have been there for me. you fucking rock.
there is so much more i need to write, but alas, i cannot in this forum.
ok. done rambling for now. maybe more later. an update, if you will.
