work, eat, breath, play, sleep … work, eat, breath, play, sleep …
I haven’t been blogging for some very good reasons. I have been living too much to have time to blog. Don’t feel I have left you or am ignoring you. Honestly I am constantly blogging in my head. It just never makes it to an actual post.
I start my new (second) job tomorrow morning. I am way excited. (if I wasn’t so damn tired) I am ready. The people are oh so nice and the customers are way different than the ones I deal with at my first job. I think I will actually be able to breath and relax and enjoy working at this job because it is a much more tranquil atmosphere. So much of the focus is centered around helping the customers and not so much task. (oh thank god) Plus I get to forgo the uniform and wear pretty clothes, heels and my make-up will not be in jeopardy of melting off from sweating from running around all idotic like.
The schedule will take some getting used to as I will go from my second job to my first job for a couple of days a week (and vice versa) but I will be earning my way to have the greatest apartment EVER! If you could see this place, you would know it is SO worth it.
RANDOM STORY -
These four guys came into work last night and were basically looking around all dumb like they just couldn’t find a damn thing. I kept asking if I could help find stuff for them and they kept asking me for things that were right in front of them. They were so nice that I gave up working and decided to walk around helping them shop for stuff. They were in town basically vacationing to get some golfing done. Oh and they wanted beer. After talking to them for fifteen minutes or so, I asked, “Where are you from that you have that wonderful accent?” One of the guys turned to me and said, “Quebec. Do you know where that is?” And for half a beat I drew a blank and knew I would be found out to be stupid because I didn’t know where it was. So to buy myself time, I looked at him and said, “Well I am guessing it is out of this country?” He laughed and then it hit me - “Oh Canada. Dontcha know.” Yes, I totally made fun of the accent and they loved it. Fun guys. I had a great time. How cool is that when I get to meet great people at work? (then again, I meet some pretty awful ones too)
Raindrop (formerly casual guy) has all of a sudden been picking up the pace with spending time with me. I think - and I’m only guessing here - he may actually like me. We went from spending one afternoon/evening together to almost three to four to five afternoons/evenings together. All on his request. I am loving it. Course, I am a total quality time girl. I read this article the other day (and I, of course, believe everything I read) that said the way to tell if he is interested in you is by the times of the day a guy contacts you.I get calls/texts from him all day - mostly early morning on his work breaks and after he gets off of work and now later in the evening. Before it was only random evening times. And I would go days without hearing from him. Now he not only initiates it, but he keeps calling to see me day after day. WOOT! That’s so cool because yes, I like this guy. I have noticed one of the reasons it is so easy with Raindrop is that he and I don’t try to change each other or push our feelings/thoughts onto each other. He has this crazy weird thing about his sheets being made a certain way (the wrong way, mind you) and that he puts his pillows in front of his closet so he has to make his bed before he gets dressed in the morning. When I have discussed this with him he is very adamant about it staying that way. Personally, I find it very entertaining (really, very entertaining), but truthfully I could care less. If it makes him happy WTF do I care? I mean in the long run of things what are the truly important things? He is nice to me. He is incredibly considerate and very subtle in the ways he shows he cares. He is an adult and acts like one (well he is a guy so as much as is possible). He has two jobs and pays his bills (on time) and has goals and ambition. He works his FN ass off and has a work ethic that may very rule my own. He is a nut job about cleanliness (which coincidentally makes me a better person because my place has never been cleaner and he has yet to come over).
Blah blah blah - changing the subject because really, I could go on
I am a complete wacko about Hummus. I haven’t ever realized that there are other people out there who like it. People I know. Yet, the moment I realized I liked it people started coming out of the woodwork. Course I have been talking about it too. I eat it with Wheat Thins or when I am out, Lays potato chips. I actually buy mine at the store because they have this really nice flavor with tomatoes, but I know many people who make their own.
And I am sure there is more, but I am bushed and have to go to sleep now.

Can’t wait to hear about the new job.
Guys are always more interested when they have to chase you a little. Sucks, but true.
And I like hummus too.
Hubby doesn’t but I do.

I used to work at a hotel front desk. I got some great accents, but my favorite was the yucky guys flirting trying to get a discount. However I loved the cute guys who would flirt too, and come back to ask dumb questions like where the buffet was, you know the one they just walked past twice
