Fingers Crossed

I am 11 weeks into my new adventure.
I'm sure you're all just wondering why even here in my happy place I have continued to be so HUSH HUSH about what's going on.
I have to be honest, I have been doing an experiment.
An experiment to see if for once in my life I keep my big fucking mouth shut I'll have some positive outcome.

So far so good.

Talk to me in 2 weeks and we can go over details.

As for everything else, new job is fantastic.. Having weekends off is fantastic. I couldn't be any happier. Whether or not my husband is going to think everything is fantastic when he gets my part time less money paycheck is beyond me.. That's another thing I am going to have to keep you posted on. I keep reminding him it's for the greater good that I took this new job and I also remind myself to thank him daily because with out his hard work and his paycheck we would not survive. So - Shout out to Brett Miller, I love you and thank you for being an amazing provider.

It's been miserable HOT here in the Carolina recently.. I have to admit to hot to even think about going to the beach. I know it could be worse to live in the opposite side of the spectrum but I'm just saying, it's fucking steaming out there.

4th of July weekend is coming up and we have tons of fun fun fun plans.. I'm pleased to report that I have a 4 day weekend as well! WHAT - Who would have thunk it?

Was on the horn with my mum the other day and she says to me " So what's the plan for the holidays?" I almost snapped at her  ( like I have in years past ) " Mom you KNOW I can't do anything over the holidays my work schedule doesn't permit it" but I stopped myself and reminded myself that this year unlike others I will in fact be able to participate in Holiday Cheer like most other people. Oh joy, happy happy joy joy...

I think I'll give Black Friday shopping a try - It's been ages since I've done that!

Vapor-RUB?

I am slathered in Vick's Vapor-Rub in hopes of shaking a bit of a sinus infection. I know you're asking yourself why I don't just head down to the Dr for a little scrip to fix this problem, but unfortunately ladies and gents I am unable to take anything these days due to my current "condition".

Tomorrow's my last day at Aeropostale and I couldn't be more ready.
If I didn't have to show up tomorrow I absolutely wouldn't - BUT - Because I love the girls I work with and because I want to leave in good standings I will stick it out.

My head has been feeling like a balloon ready to pop for days - Terrible!
I can honestly say that I've never had a sinus infection before and due to this I am a big baby about the whole ordeal. The throbbing never ends, my eyes hurt, my ears hurt and every few minutes I fear a bloody nose is coming on.

How cute would that be at my first day of work at the new J-0-B?

I am absolutely mortified about Thursday. Mortified, ready and excited all at the same time. I am so excited to be moving on with my life, so excited to be learning something new but also SO scared that I am going to be absolutely terrible at it. The anxiety of it all has my panties so in a wad that I am having nightly nightmares about the whole ordeal. Not good, not good at all - Especially since I am supposed to be leading a stress free lifestyle to date.

I keep reminding myself that my lifestyle will be so improved and that my over all happiness will excel..
So.. With that being said, someone remind me on Thursday morning to take a deep breathe and that everything will be a-ok?

I absolutely can't stand retail...

I will not, absolutely will not, I repeat will not ever work retail again.
I have 4 days left at my current employer and I have to continuously remind myself that I don't have the luxury of throwing my arms in the air and just walking out (( probably while screaming excessive amounts of profane words. )) I need to be sure that I have a good reference after putting in almost 5 years of service to a company that has been absolutely a pleasure to work for beyond their problem customers.

Today was the icing on the cake:
Any person that thinks they can just say whatever they want to a retail employee (ie; you don't know mathematics and you must not have graduated from highschool )) should subsequently be shot.. Well maybe not shot, but slapped at the least.

Wouldn't it be super beat if you could just birch slap the ignorant and then they would in turn learn their lesson, never to speak some foolishness again? Maybe I'll give it a try, see how it works out...

So if I bitch slap you in the near future you now know why :)
