Change of pace
Wednesday. 12.9.15 5:20 pm
Day one with access to everything was kind of nuts. There were so many changes that came in first thing this morning on top of the normal work we have to do that I was a little on the frustrated side. I barely got to touch the assigned work that I had for today; I made the tiniest of dents in it. So I'll have that to catch up on tomorrow. Hopefully tomorrow isn't as crazy. Despite the fact that I already know how to do a good portion of the work, I am still new at this and I've yet to form a routine; that tidbit is exactly why I was so stressed out today. Once I get that down, I'll be fine. Or, at the very least, less stressed than today.

This morning before work was interesting. My alarm went off at 6:15. I silenced it, rolled back over to just lay there for 30 more minutes, but I saw this flash of light. Well, that was weird, but whatever. And then another flash, so I turned over and that's when I heard the thunder. I got really excited because we rarely have lightning and thunder. About 2 minutes later, that's when the hail started pelting my windows ... I was super glad that my alarm woke me up before that happened. The noise coming from that probably woke most people up. It stopped just as quickly as it started and all occurred within about 20 minutes. It had completely stopped raining by the time I left for work.

I would love to have that happen more often {maybe minus the hail} but this place is too wet all the time to have the static in the air required for lightning. Oh well. It was nice to be awake for the brief storm.

It's been decided that the only plan I have for this weekend is the training on Saturday. I'm okay with that, though. I was hoping to get together with my friend for a repeat weekend, but he's already busy. Kinda bummed, but this gives me an excuse to stay home in my pajamas.

Until tomorrow. . .

It's about damn time
Tuesday. 12.8.15 5:27 pm
Two weeks after the original request was put in, I finally, finally, have the access that I need to actually do my whole job. It took way too many people today to finally figure out why the two programs weren't connecting and by the time it was fixed, it was less than an hour before I went home. So tomorrow, as long as it's still working, I should be able to actually do the base part of what my new position actually is. Ugh.

Anywho, not a whole lot to update other than that. I did actually drag my ass out of bed with my first alarm this morning so that I could wash my hair before going in to work. As soon as the rice I have on the stove is finished cooking, I'll be taking another shower to wash it again and then putting on pj's before getting cozy with YouTube. I have a little bit of catching up to do, but I may reserve that for the weekend.

As of right now, the only plan I have is the training on Saturday morning. I was going to try to make plans for Sunday, but I have a feeling it's not going to work out. I'd really like it to so fingers crossed. I'm okay still being behind on some videos.

Alright, I think the rice only has a couple more minutes. This was just a quick update on the status of access for work.

Until tomorrow. . .

Caught up
Monday. 12.7.15 7:05 pm
With the exception of gauging my ears, I did everything today that I was supposed to do yesterday. I went grocery shopping, put gas in the car, and now I just put my clothes in the dryer.

I have enough food to get me through the next two weeks. I'm hoping that with everything I've already paid, I'll still have enough left over to go to lunch on Friday. If not, I may have to postpone it to next Friday. We'll see. I'll have a better idea of the finances once everything actually goes through in my account.

So, that guy I mentioned I'd been curious about off and on for the past several years, the one I thought I blew it with? Well, he's the one I hung out with Saturday night and I actually really like him ... like, to the point where I can see it going somewhere. This excites and terrifies me at the same time because I don't know if he feels the same way. I mean, it was really fun getting to hang out with him, but it wasn't exactly a date. I kind of want to just go on a date and see how it goes. We'll see if I can work up enough courage to ask.

I still don't have the access that I need for my job. It's bullshit that it's taken this long, but whatever. Perhaps by tomorrow, though, at this point if I get the access before Christmas, it'll be a miracle.

I really don't have much else to write. I wrote up most of it yesterday. I'll provide an update on access tomorrow.

Until then. . .

Heh, oops!
Sunday. 12.6.15 12:19 pm
Six days in to this challenge and I already missed a day. I knew I should have written something up earlier in the morning when I was still home, but I didn't know that I'd not come home last night.

So yesterday was fun. I met up with a couple friends and we went on an adventure up north to Nothing Bundt Cakes. It's an amazing place. If you have one near you, go. Right now. Like, why are you still reading this? Go! They're amazing.

After we got dessert, we went to Olive Garden. Dessert before dinner. Yes, that's the kind of adulting day it was yesterday. Once we stuffed our faces to the brink, we went to the mall in the area because one of my friends had never been to that mall. It was a good excuse to walk off some of the dinner that'd we'd just had. I got new earrings that I was planning on putting in today, but I think I'll wait until next weekend. I need to do them on a day when I don't have work the next day because they're big and not allowed. And I have to keep them in for at least 48 hours to allow my ears to stretch before putting in the squishies.

After the mall, we headed back to their place and hung out for a bit. We watched a couple movies, they played some video games, we all had a couple drinks; it was a really nice to just hang out. When it started getting later, I text another friend just kind of out of the blue and asked if I could go hang out. Surprisingly he said yes, so I made my way to his place. Once there, I continued drinking and ended up crashing there; I was way too drunk to drive home at that point.

This morning was nice. We woke up and watched the first half of the Seahawks game; he's a HUGE fan. Which is fine, I was more entertained by just how excited he got watching it. He was supposed to meet up with a friend of his to watch the game, but I kind of messed that up. Hence why we only watched the first half together. This way he could still go to his buddy's place to watch the second half. I'm not sure when we'll get together again, but I look forward to it.

Now that I'm back home, I really should do laundry, but that involves a trip to get quarters {I forgot to get them Friday and yesterday} and now that I'm back home, I really just don't want to leave again. I have enough outfits clean to get me through a couple more days, but I'll get quarters while I'm at work tomorrow so I'll just do the laundry then. I also really need to put gas in my car; the light will be coming on at some point very soon. But again, I just don't feel like leaving. Maybe I'll do that on my lunch break tomorrow...

I'll have to make sure that the next few Saturdays I write early because I have plans every Saturday until the new year and I don't want to miss another day because of it. So here's to hoping that I can keep on top of it.

Until tomorrow. . .

Quest
Friday. 12.4.15 8:06 pm
I'll be on a quest this weekend to find a new touch sensor floor lamp. Mine finally died. It lasted almost 10 years. The lamp itself works, so long as I use the plug in order to turn it off or on. Which is a huge pain in the ass. I may actually end up just buying a couple smaller ones and putting up shelves in the corner. We'll see what the outcome is tomorrow.

I was up in the call center again today. For whatever reason, it's taking way too fucking long for me to get the access that I need so I was sent to do busy work. Monday morning there's already a plan set in motion for me so that I can refresh my memory on doing the other parts of my new position. Something I learned 4 weeks ago and have long since forgotten.

I haven't any plans for Sunday, except the usual laundry, so I'll probably take advantage of that day to just hang around in my pajamas and let my brain rest before I cram more information in to in on Monday.

These daily entries are much nicer because I can update little bits at a time and not overwhelm anyone with super long entries, detailed days/weeks at a time.

Until tomorrow. . .

Productive?
Thursday. 12.3.15 6:13 pm
I still didn't have the access to the one program I need access to, so I took some offline work and went back to the call center to learn about the departments I still don't know yet. At least I felt like I got something out of today.

Tomorrow is finally Friday. I'm meeting a friend for lunch and we're going to be getting Mexican food from this place a bunch of people have been raving about. It has 3 1/2 stars on Yelp, so it's not horrible, but I'm not sure if it'll be as great as everyone I've talked to about it says it is. Which, I'm not super concerned. I'll be getting some decent food with a friend I haven't hung out with in ages. That alone will be worth it.

This is just a quick entry. I'll write more tomorrow. I'm tired and my brain kinda hurts from actually learning things today.

Until then. . .
