Mordacious

I’m going to make this short because I’m going to spend some quality time with Skhi soon~<3

The good, I had previously submitted a resume to my Store Manager when a position opened up for Supervisor and I found out they were hiring from the inside.  I just found out today that I got the job. Hopefully this means I can step up to an Assistant Manager’s position when one opens up. The only higher position than that at my workplace is a Store Manager… kehehe.

So, finally I’ll get better pay!

The bad news: today we’ve got an official blizzard warning here in MN.

Work closed early for the first time in years. If we hadn’t, I don’t think I would have made it out of the store and been able to get home. I was this close to not being able to drive out of the parking lot. Some of the snow drifts were over chest height! Winds kept pushing the snow and I around, so visibility was shot. Man, it’s just nuts all around. Right now it looks like I could swim in the snow on my deck.

It makes me wish I was a kid again. I’d be suited up and rolling around in it! When I was taking the dog out to the bathroom with Skhi, for kicks and giggles I encouraged him to jump into one of those chest high drifts. He’s a little twenty pound dog, so when he did it he nearly got stuck and romped his poor butt out of there. He seemed to enjoy the excitement though, haha!

Alright, going off to have some fun!

Well, I just finally and shamefully broke down and watched Avatar: The Last Airbender with Skhizein… and I have to say it was alright. I most sympathized with Zuko and his Uncle. Everyone else I pretty much shrugged off when they acted depressed.

I have to say, though, I really pegged Zuko to be gay, haha!

I mean, May, really? I think he was just trying to make up for something.

Anyways, now that I’ve admitted my shameful secret, I’m off to watch Lord of the Rings while Skhi does his math homework.

//sighs/

PS: Zuko constantly reminded me of Dilandau in Escaflowne and the fire nation of Zaibach. I guess that’s probably why I liked him so much.

Hm, it’s been a while again. I wonder if I’ll ever begin to post reliably.

I’ve been busy with work mostly… and yet, not busy enough. I need to get working with some Veterinarians, seriously. Otherwise I’ll never have an edge when trying to get into Vet School. I’m really dreading the application process…

I’ve finally finished a resume for a promotion I’m hoping to get. I need some management experience, so I’m going for it… however crappy it may be. Most of my coworkers are rooting for me, partly because I’m overqualified and partly because the other ass I’m up against is arrogant and lazy. However, he has more retail experience than I, so we’ll see. I’ve been told by more than one person that they’ll quit if he gets the job though, haha!

My mood is alright… it’s better than it was. I’m not really feeling depressed… just exhausted and hopeless. Sometimes it feels like things will never go my way. Though, money has been better lately. I’ve finally got some saved up and so long as nothing gets fucked up, I’m hoping to get a second car here for my Skhizein so he can drive himself to school. Wouldn’t that be wonderful?

A little list of not so good things that have happened however:

• My Xbox 360 died… I plan to fix it on my own. Wish me luck.
• Both my laptops are going super slow despite virus and spyware scans… oh joy.
• The dog is having allergy issues…
• Winter came; self explanatory.
• Need to buy winter clothes because it is COLD.

I guess that’s it for now. I just wanted to do a quick update. I still mean to post pictures of the kittens… and maybe even a video or two if I get over being so tired. They’re the cutest things in the world though… seriously.
