I'm so exciiiited... and I just can't hiiide it

It still hasn't completely sunk in that I no longer am employed by Target, although I've said it about a million times LOL :)
I'm just so happy and excited about it... I was feeling so stuck... like there was no other option for me. That I had to stick it out even longer in a place where I was so unhappy with and dreaded going to... and now, things are going to be completely different. I already know EVERY place will have things that irk you that you can't really control... I'm not that naive and stupid :P

There's already ONE thing I know before I've even actually started there... and that is: MY FACIAL PIERCINGGGG. They do not allow facial piercings. But I wore a retainer when I went for my interview... and she didn't even notice it until *I* pointed it out. I saw Chris today when I was at TARGET (hahah) getting some new work clothes and he told me she had told him today that I wouldnt be able to wear the retainer, either... but I'm going to do what he suggested, and that is, wear the retainer anyway... and if something is said, just be like, "Oh, my bad... I didn't know...". Because she never called me back to tell me what HER boss had to say about the retainer, soooo... :P



I really should be in bed right now since my first day is TOMORROWWWWWW ( :D :D :D ), but I just can't seem to make myself lol. I think I'm too excited to sleep. Plus, Matt's out with some guys so I can never sleep when he's not here. Blah. I'm gonna have to try soon, though. I can't be at work on the first day looking like a zombie. At least I'll be a damn good looking zombie if I did ;) lol That's another thing I'm kinda excited about... I can dress up if I want to! I got a couple button-up, long-sleeved, striped shirts... a black pair of dressy pants... and a pair of brown khakis. I will wear as less RED as possible, that's for sure :P

Something fantastical! (Edited)

So I'm very moody at the moment, but I have great news.

I HAVE A NEW JOB!!!! Yay. No more Target! I actually found out I got the job a couple Tuesdays ago. I did the right thing and put in my two weeks (and actually stuck it out :P). Friday was my last scheduled day. So I have 4 (well... now, two remaining) days to relax until starting the new job.

So on Wednesday, I will be working at Washington University in the Mailroom in the Pediatrics Center. So exciting!! The benefits are GREAT, the pay is WAY better than I was getting, and I can even go to school for half price after a few months if I want to.

In other news, we might have found an apartment, which is very exciting as well. So I'm just crossing my fingers hoping things continue to look up.
:)

Today when my mom and I were going to the store (SO SICK OF THE GROCERY STORE!!!! :@), we started to drive down the street and my mom began acting crazy, put the car in reverse and backed up. I was like, "WTF?!" I look over to my right, and there on the sidewalk next to a tree, was a HUGE hawk, tearing into a squirrel. o.o Mind you, we live in the city! This isn't something we see everyday. In fact, this is the FIRST time I've ever seen anything like that right in front of me. I know they release some in the city to take care of the pigeon population to keep it under control but damn. I wish I had my camera because I could have got some nice pictures of the hawk. I took a pic of it on my cell, but I know it's gonna be shitty quality. I feel bad for the little squirrel though, cause I love squirrels :( I opened the car door a smidge to see if it'd do anything but it didn't... just continued tearing into the little animal. But when I slammed the door shut, it looked up at me like it wanted to kill me. o.o lol Definitely something interesting that happened today.

I had my mom stop by Walgreens after the grocery store cause I needed some new bodyspray. To my dismay they didn't have SHIT. >:-L I did pick up some Mighty Putty... and one of those new Pedi Paws pet nail trimmers. I hope it works. BunBun needs her nails did. Mmmhm.

WHY... Do guys feel like they have to front??? Seriously. They end up looking like a LITTLE BITCH.
