Getting on with Life and all that Goodness
Been working for about five weeks on my feet and its long enough for me to conclude a few things. My foot is definitely broken or fractured severely enough that there's this sickening shift that happens sometimes when I'm on my feet for a while and walk the wrong way. Keeping the weight off my foot by shifting to the other isn't an option as it makes that leg's knee hurt. I really really need the insurance and enough money to get that looked at.
On the plus side of work, I really like my co-workers and they've really made that job as good as a food service job gets. I get free delicious bread extras, I get to make fun coffees and fruity drinks, and my thick skin towards terribly behaved children is returning. In WY kids had way higher standards for behavoir and there was a short time where I was one of those people who thought there should be a law demanding a certain base standard of behavoir for children. What can I say, we're all allowed to fall of the wagon once in a while.
I got my tax returns back so while I'm not poor, I'm not rolling in the cash either. I ate KFC yesterday and it was super disappointing. I think I've had too much fast food and indulged my whims on that front a bit much.
In other job related news I turned down a sales position and am in the second set of interviews for the environmental advocate position. That job the more I hear about it, the more I think it would be a dream job for me. I'm sooooo exicted and nervous for the interview. I really want things to go well.
In other not love related news, I miss the hell out of WY and will do almost anything to get myself back to Cheyenne, Denver, or Arizona...though the politics in some of those places are scarey, the people are really friendly and welcoming and the view is unbeatable. I miss the sense of space. I miss the hell out of the sun. I actually miss driving fifty miles to whole foods and relaxing because I'm with my people and they are all friendly and kind and welcoming. I don't know MA people think the same way I do but a lot of them are really cold and aloof and apathetic. I'm getting really tired of people either ignoring me when I jump into a public conversation or giving me death stare. If you don't want others to listen then don't speak in public damn it. I'm totally willing to brave the tornado warnings for the rest of the quality.
Saw K-dog last week and it was good. It's always nice to catch up with people and what not. Also, I think it's best if I keep busy. My dreams have been restless and I'm a bit restless myself. I feel like I should be doing a million different things and can't quite seem to keep hold on any one of those things.
Like I'm learn html but the process is slow and fast and slow again. I'm writing but it's here and there and very patchy. I'm applying and interviewing and then I'm not. I'm social and then I'm a recluse again. I've got no work hours and then I pick up a ton extra. I'm tired and then I'm full of life. I have a million things to say to a couple of people but when the time comes to say them or even just to write it out, I'm silent. I dunno, it's like I can't hold anything constant even for a few days. It's weird, and somehow probably on par per usual.
Zac's sister made it to the finals of American Idol Arkansas talent hunt, still seeing if she'll make the show. She and her hubby might be splitting soon as apparently he decided to take a nap instead of feed there couple month old baby. I don't know, she's always a lot of drama and sometimes she makes things up. Of course if the previous alligation has any truth, an immediate separation is probably best.
Zac's other sister has been in a bad car accident at which she was at fault for and messed up her knee, though she and everyone else should recover. Now she does very little talking, won't drive, and has problems being in a car or leaving her parents house. It's a shame beyond the wrecked car and the injuries because she just started a new job and I'm not sure how she can do that and deal with this. I feel for here and her family.
Zac himself is looking for a second job with no hope of ever finding one. He needs jaw surgery, and his hours at work have been cut back again to barely full time. Things looks desperate for him, and I feel bad for him. At the same time some little part of me is so beyond relieved that I'm not involved. I just couldn' handle all of this, plus looking for my own job and whatnot. It's too much for me and I don't know how he deals at all except to think that maybe he doesn't deal with it. I dunno, but I keep him and his family in my thoughts and prayers.
