March...so far

Well, March started off pretty bad. I was at Club Eden for their Foam Party and around 1am on the first I got my toe nail ripped off and went to the ER so I could prevent it from getting infected. It really sucks. The owner of the club did say I have life time VIP into the club, which is nice lol. But I HAD to work the next day and for those of you who don't know, I'm a Manager at a deli and am on my feet the entire time, so of course my foot hurt when I left work. Luckily the relief manager was able to take Sunday so I didn't have to, but I still had to work Monday and Tuesday. What really sucked is that I had a note from the hospital saying I couldn't be on my foot for 3 days, but I had to work two of those days. I hate my job, that's why I'm getting another one.

But on a good note. One of my best friends just called me up and asked if I'd like a pair of tickets to go see one of my favorite country singers in concert at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo :) I'm so excited. I so wanted to go see Kevin, but I knew I couldn't afford it. It will be weird seeing him in concert then not really being able to hang out with him after the concert like I normally do. Maybe he'll be doing autographs before the concert and I will be able to meet up with him and get my hug or as Kevin says, his hug.

Oh, and my birthday is fast approaching...19 March

Starting 2008 sick

Well, the new year has come and gone. It was hardly noticed except for my friends and I going to Club Eden and drinking and dancing, but then it was back to work the next morning. I didn't care though. I made sure I enjoyed the night. I had been working three weeks with hardly any days off and dammit, I was going to have some fun. During the midnight balloon drop I managed to get two VIP tickets, a free Eden t-shirt, and a $25 bar tab. I was pretty damn happy.

Unfortunately, my new year has started out with me being sick. Everyone has been coming into work sick and one lady brings her baby in when she is sick, so it's no surprise really. Right now I just feel like falling over.

Oh, on a side note I have started learning sign language.

zOMG I'm still alive!

Yes, I know you've all been wondering if I'm still alive and I figured I'd drop in to say that I am. I've been pretty busy with work and other shit in my life. My management job takes a lot out of me. I'm sad to say that I've hardly even thought about doing any type of art lately and I'm glad that my wireless mouse died or my Wacom would just be sitting and collecting dust, but instead I do everything with my stylus instead of a mouse and find that to be pretty convenient.
I finally got my Canon PowerShot A70 repaired and am quite happy about that. I miss having that camera. It takes such wonderful pictures and was my first digital.
I'm currently transferring old videos to DVD for my parents, and of course for myself. I rented an old super 8mm film projector and have had bad luck with it lol. The first one came with a broken belt so I traded it out and the second one worked for about an hour before a different belt broke on it. Now I have to talk to them about trading that one in for a third, but I don't think they will be open again until the 26th, so I'm working on transferring the old Hi8 to DVD, which luckily I can do since we located my dad's camcorder.
Oh, I've also gotten addicted to this site called Furry Paws. It's a pretty cool site and is kinda like Neopets in a way, but not really. If you check it out and want to join say that user #606927 told you about it. ;p

But yeah, like I said, I'm alive.

ttfn and until then...

Humberto update

Well, The Houston/Galveston area was spared. Luckily we didn't take a direct hit from Humberto. We didn't even get the 10 inches of rain that was predicted. I'm glad about that. I wouldn't be able to drive anywhere in a Firebird if it was flooded...

Finally some good news

I finally got a new job. I'm currently in training to be a weekend manager at the local Schlotzsky's. So far I've been enjoying it. My feet are tired cause I'm not used to being on them so much, I'm used to sitting behind a desk for the most part lol. The people are great. I've only met a few of the people who will be working under me and they seem pretty cool. After this week is over then I'll be done with my training and will be going to weekends, plus a few week days so I can get my 40 hours, or close to it.
