Post

See, I posted... did I win?

Damnit, I don't know what computer to get.

Getting a computer at home...

Then I can actually blog again!

What do I look for in a computer?

What is the best bet?

Best for internet service?

I need ideas!

I wonder if anyone even come by here since I am such a naughty blogger by not posting in god knows how long.....

Alright, Alright Already

Sorry Lovely People,

FIRST OFF BIG FUCKING CONGRATS MY DEAR ZAN! HOPE IT ALL WENT WELL!



Been busy.

Got an A in my first class back at college! Still looking for a job. Just interviewed at a large non-profit as an accounting associate. However they wanted to speak with my supervisors and the ones that I had last are ass munches (they were only there for as few months before I was subsequently (ahem) removed.) But the ex-director gave a lovely response to them on my behalf (thank god). The house is going well, I have a shower now and the bathroom is done. The boy-toy is gone for the night (down at the lake of the ozarks working on a house, which means he will blow all that money on booze and going to strip clubs) Eh, as long as he pays electric and rent next month I really don't care. I am just going to be REALLY lonely, but, I am resourceful and I am sure I can find something that will help out.

Oh well, off to class!

Just Another Day

Got an interview tomorrow! HURRAY! Thanks for the tips on handshaking Mr. Rat. (for anyone else read previous blog). Its a progressive idea that when managed properties around here need lawn mowing, snow shovel, maintenance, cleaning, etc. Those managed properties call this company and tell them what they want done and the company finds the small companies to do it. Sounded spiffy to me. Thanks also Rat for the tip on researching the place.

Went to the bar on Saturday with the boy-toy, had two drinks a piece and then decided to go play $2.00 on pull tabs, I won $100, so went to the races for free, gotta love dirt tracks.

Got the tub surround.

Just gotta install it now.

Handshakes

How the hell do you do them?

I know stupid question, you put your hand in another persons and shake it up and down.

Or at least that is what I thought you did.

Apparently not.

Evidently there is some kind of artform to shaking hands. Since I am out and about looking for a job I have come across some doozies.

1. Women shake hands differently than men. Why? I don't know. Apparently I shake hands like a guy. None of that pussy half-hearted limp wristed shit for me.

2. In interviewing processes not only does the Interviewer check to see how you are shaking, but you sometimes they shake badly to see what your reaction is. (crap)

I have got to find a happy medium. Men say my handshakes are fine... women aren't impressed.... I don't really want to hurt them so I hold back a bit.

Resumes done! HURRAY!

Got job hunting is such crap.

Alice's Next Book

Alice's Must Have Next Book

Okay, so I'm a sucker for the Today Show... Basically because the Boy-toy so enjoys it, I usually am reading but will raise my head up for the occasional "uh-huh, that's nice, honey." However, today I caught this really spiffy What If scenerio of what would happen to the world if mankind suddenly disappeared. I can't afford it anytime soon, but, as soon as it hits my favorite Trade-a-book store (I have so much credit with them it's ridiculous) I am going to get it.

I wonder if the guy did his research on the subject... I'm sure he did, but it sounds like some good reading.

Quiz

My first quiz is due today... hopefully I do well. I am waiting for information on my fasfa loans... hopefully they get here soon, I SERISOULY NEED a TI-84 calculator. It is amazing how these days the teachers actually insist that you use a calculator to do the problems. When I was younger you were lucky if you were allowed to check your work with a calculator. I am almost being bratty about refusing to get one just so I can actually learn this stuff myself. Ho-hum.

On a lighter note, maybe I will go to a race this weekend. I have seriously tried to cut down on my alcohol usage.... (can't really afford it right now, which ironically makes me want to drink more).

Still need new floors in my house.

Still need a tub surround in my house.

Still literally need a kitchen sink.

But boy, is it quiet over at my new place.
