Shady Clearing

Woof.  Hey there, whomever you may be.

Working for Wal-mart isn’t too bad sometimes.  Other times it’s enough to make you wish you could just fly away.  Friday was somewhere in between.  The fact that it was friday to begin with was a sure sign that it was going to be a tiring day.  Sure enough, it delivered.  Between people in the motor carts screaming about not being helped (largely because we couldn’t see they were even there, which was their own fault since they could have walked if they wanted) and stupid people who couldn’t comprehend the fact that it’s ok to get less than a pound of something at any one time, my brain was rather racked by the end of my shift.

Then, right after I got off work I had to leave to go home, grab some clothes, and take off to fly to Princeton with Garet since he had an appointment with the doctor.  He was late, but oh well.  After leaving from there we went for some dinner at Los Aztecas, then came back to his parent’s place to shower.  After refreshing ourselves and getting on some clean clothes, we ended up going to Heritage Days, a festival going on here in Princeton.  For me, it was actually rather boring.  I didn’t know anyone there, nor did I have any interest in any of the many shop booths.  Granted, it wasn’t all that fun for Garet either, so no big deal.  We went from there to visit his friends at the theatre before coming home.

Now it’s saturday, and I’m off.  However, it’s going to be a long day as well.  Around 2:30 we have to go to Adam’s.  We’re going to have some lunch at Pizza Hut, then go to band practice.  I’m not part of the band, but Garet is.  Also, for anyone that’s wondering, the band is named Autumn’s On Fire.  They’re more of a hardcore/heavy metal band, with a pretty decent sound.  Check out the link to hear some of their stuff or see their schedules shows if you wanna see them live.  After practice tonight, they’re performing at the Friendly Fire Cafe in Bridgeport, IL.  A good time, to be sure, but I’m going to be really tired when it’s all said and done, and I’ll still have to come all the way back to kentucky and do laundry.  YAY! (Bleh.)

That’s all for now I suppose.  I’ll probably update some more after I get home tonight. Ta~

Things have been interesting lately.  In the time that’s passed since I was last using this thing, I’ve managed to become not-single, maintain my job at Wal-Mart, and gain some presense as a computer consultant.  Overall things haven’t really changed much, but it sure seems like it sometimes.

Wal-mart…well, it’s a job.  I still work in the Deli as I have for a year and a half now.  The pay is alright, though our management is as disorganized as ever.  I would love to get out of that place, but for now it pays the bills and I can’t complain too much.

Computer consulting… I make it sound so important.  In actuality, I’ve been repairing more computers than I’ve been building, but that brings in more money than building them since more people break their computers than buy new ones.  It’s fun though, and provides some extra money that I otherwise wouldn’t have, so I’m happy for that.

All in all, I’ve found that I have way too many thoughts running through my head throughout the day and night to just keep them inside.  It keeps me from sleeping well, and affects my mood.  So I’ve decided to force myself to start using this website like I used to, posting every day.  Here’s to hoping I can keep up with that, and seeing if anyone notices.
