 Alive |

So I'm here in Texas, boiling in the humidity. Everything moves a little slower here, the bars close @ midnight and they don't sell liquor on Sundays.
But there's no laws about being naked and drunk on the river, so I've at least got some sort of outlet.
I was working @ Starbucks, but I've decided that although you're not a total sell-out if you drink their coffee, you ARE a total sell-out if you work there. Fuck a whole lotta corporate coffee shops.
Life goes on and I'm still looking for a place to call my own, be that a physical location or just a state of mind. I feel restless and unfullfilled wherever I seem to be, but there's always the promise of salvation around the next corner. I guess its true wherever you go, there you are.
But life is. And i'm doing.

BEST NEWS EVER!
Turns out the hr chick @ godaddy simply forgot to call me back, and stumbled upon this fact while thumbing through her planner... I called her back today letting her know the exact situation with my "Criminal Record" and she called me back within the hour to offer me back my old job!! My supervisor was really excited to hear that I'd be coming back, as he was very disapointed to loose me for such an inane reason.
Seriously very excited, as much as I love coffee, I didn't get free espresso, and I was making about half of what I did @ godaddy, plus I was busting my ass.
I'm really looking forward to getting those fat paychecks again.

So much for a career advancement...
I got a job @ the Coffee Plantation today. He was suitably impressed by my coffee experience and passion for espresso. He even mentioned they were looking for shift leads, so that could mean me.
Right now I'm doing the afternoon-closing shift, so that's great, I can sleeep.
seriously, I love coffee. This job is going to be juuust what I need for the time being.
I need to start thinking about school in the near future, but it always seems like I should have more money, more time, or more something... maybe I should stop waiting for the perfect situation, and CREATE a workable situation. there's always grants and student loans.

YES!
The Dodge spirit is in my clutches! well almost, tomorrow I'll pick it up after my first day of work. double Holla!
It needs a back window and I need to register and insure it, but the total cost to me is a whopping 700$.
he was gonna fix the window, but to expedite the process, I'll get the window replaced myself by one of those traveling window fixer places.
I'm really excited about the way things worked themselves out. I got a lovely 2 week break on top of it. hahaha. new schedule is 7-5, which is weird, but hey that's a 90$ day for sorting mail. maybe I'll get to listen to my headphones.

New job Maybe??
I've pretty much given up hope of being rehired @ godaddy, but I have a lead on a new job.
She made it sound like I pretty much have the job, they did a background and credit check, so things are looking good on that front.
It's a mailroom job @ a mortgage company, a pretty big one too, so this is a good way to get my foot in the door.
and just in time, I had my starbucks application filled out and everything...
also, I found a dealership that will finance me if I walk in with a letter proving I've been hired.
so after a small speed bump, I'm back on the road with my foot on the gas.

I'm buying a car!
for the mere price of 900$ I can have the FABULOUS 1994 Dodge Spirit! complete with newly replaced rear window, bashed in passenger side and only 40,000 miles! don't forget the air conditioning!!
haha, ok so it's not the BEST car around but it beats walkin, and any car that has 40,000 miles is pretty much a deal for 900$.
I guess this means I need an AZ drivers license. damnit.

take it or leave it
don't admit you need it
taste it touch it
hate it, love it
hungry, hollow, need to know
why can't i just let it go
deaf dumb, comfortably numb
need it, hide it
feed it, deny it
love to hate
this gruesome fate
die slowly
or live to find
replace whats mine
with silent comfort
cover the hurt
ready to die,forget to live
in the times between
don't know you
can't remember me
altered state
give just to take
who are you?
find out too late
too late to rewind
take back my mind
lost in confusion
ran out of time

So I sat at my desk and made paper airplanes all day.... I found some wicked ones on google... Like the F-16 Falcon, and the F-117 Nighthawk, What NOW!!
gotta love dual monitors, I used one for the for work and the other for paper airplane designs. sweeet.
Why so many airplanes?? I've got a friend in Phoenix who lives on the 18th floor with a sweet balcony. Next investment for juvenile fun is little plastic para-troopers... Plan for tomorrow, more sweet paper airplanes.
I <3 my job, or at least goofing off while getting paid.
sidenote- I have money in the bank, and even some in savings... I feel so officially adult.

So I'm working on SuperBowl. I don't even really like football, so time and a half for a lame sports holiday is sweeet. Plus they'll give us snacks and there'll be contests and so on. I also got a carpool buddy so I never haffta worry about missing work now.
I'm stoked on the 150$ I get for only two days of sales.
Molly and Ben are gone for the weekend to Mexico so I'm gonna be bored as fuck with only the bus and my feet for transportation, and also without a phone...
Messenger Anyone?

Color me PISSED.
So I had to miss work today. I called two cabs, and NEITHER arrived in the 2-3 minutes they quoted, I waited for almost an hour before calling in from a payphone at the gas station.
This is the lamest reason ever to miss a day of work. I hope I don't get fired over something this ridiculous... I'm still in my 90 day probation period, and for once I actually LIKE my job.
Fuckin Hell.

First day on the floor today, I took the most calls in my training class. 2 angry customers, but 18 pleasant conversations. Some gay guy called and said straight up he didn't wanna hear my voice anymore *hold*. Honestly I hope I never haffta deal with customers as nasty as he was. Yeah right.
tomorrow we're getting thrown right in the middle of the action with the lofty goal of beating one of the established teams. I feel so official, but I'm afraid that because I can afford food and sit on my ass all day I'm gonna pack on the pounds.
I'm seriously considering becoming a go-go dancer at one of the area clubs, but I can work out in the gym @ our apartment complex till that happens.
Hayden comes on the 13th and I'm too stoked. I'm seriously overjoyed to show him the way the sunshine melts your worries.
Sober and Clear headed, we're gonna see how it goes.

I can feel my wisdom teeth coming in. This is the first time it's been this noticable, and I can't imagine it will get any better.
but I still need to wait three months until my dental plan kicks in.

Ahh the walk of shame...
It was all I ever imagined, swanky club, primo spot, bottle of Grey Goose untold number of free drinks and drunken debauchery ensued.
get this, one of the guys from our group came up to me and said,"Can I make you in charge?" me-"in charge of what?" him-"in charge of being sexy." uhhh... ok?? who says that?? is there any proper response?? If I'd been sober I would have laughed. wait, I think I did... haha, douche.
I'm proud of myself for turning down extasy even in my drunken semi-stupor. that's self control for ya. Honestly I wasn't even interested.
I made a friend too! cutie little blonde named Sara. I crashed at her place and in the morning totally went to the gas station still in the clothes from the night before. TOO HOT. I know...
i AM the mac.
& to whom it may concern- I'm so freakin excited about our conversation... I really hope you're serious. keep me informed mmkay?

I peed in a cup today... I'm a liiittle freaked out, but hopefully its been long enough and I drank enough water...
this is the first concrete thing that drugs have kept me from doing if I fail.
wake up call?
maybe... but it only makes me want weed to deal with the stress.
fuck it all.
