A (Long Over-Due) Update

Boy, it's been a while since I've written in this thing! What's my problem?! Well... Been really busy at work, with the holidays and all. Been getting fed up with work through the holidays, too. The grocery store (ever been there?) is fun, don't get me wrong, and the people I work with are awesome, but the pay there is nuts! It has to be the tightest company I've ever worked for! I got my annual raise, a couple weeks ago. Guess how much they gave me? 18 cents more an hour! 18 CENTS!!! Back around the first of November, I was, secretly, saying that I was going to quit, if I didn't get a good raise. I'm sure 18 cents is a big deal as far as the suits at the grocery store are concerned... I mean, I only got 12 cents last year, and 6 the year before that! So, I'm moving up in the world! But, yeah, my days at the grocery store are numbered. I'm sorry. I can't take it anymore! I work too hard there (we're seriously under-staffed, and one person usually has to do 3 or 4 jobs at a time), and I'm not getting paid nearly enough. And, by the way, I re-newed my profile at the Job Service-thing, today, and put in an application for a cool-sounding job at the Memorial Hospital. So now!

Umm... Another little adventure of mine... I've been single for a long time now... I'm 29 years old, it's time for a change!!! So, I registered with Yahoo Personals, and I've got my eye on a gal there. Cool, huh?

The most exciting time of the year is now upon us. Tax season! Yippee, man! Yeah, that crap is back with a vengence... I've been donating, pretty much, every spare minute I get to Ford... Again... Already... Sucks! Hey, only 3 more months left of it! (By the way, in case you didn't know, I'm a grocery store slave by day, and a wild, partying accountant by night... Both jobs suck. The grocery store just happens to suck a little more.)
