I haven't been updating much, as I've entered zombie mode. Work 8:30-5:00 Monday-Friday. Every day go home, play with Dagmar, maybe watch a show or a movie. Eat. Go to bed. Do it all again. Weekends aren't much better.

It's hard to make friends when you live in a bigger city and work in a small office.

Speaking of small offices.

My co-worker Daniel quit, leaving me completely alone with my boss (who I like, so it's fine) but this is an incredibly busy work environment and my anxiety level has been HIGH since he left. We've gone through two temps who hated working here and I've taken on 9 projects. It's overwhelming. Thank goodness for overtime.

Speaking of overtime.

I was supposed to become a salaried employee when I started full time this March. But I guess there was a glitch (of course there was a glitch) and I was being paid as an hourly. Which was totally fine, as hourly workers get paid bi-weekly and salaried employees monthly. I wasn't happy with my salary, however, as Daniel made more than I did, even though we hold (held) the same position. So I brought it up to my boss, who put in for a raise for me and yayay I got it. But now I'm salaried, so no more overtime pay and no more every other week paycheck.

But it's worth it.

I'm hoping my life will improve once Edward gets here, as I'll have a companion and someone to go do things with, other than my two sisters who both have significant others and retail jobs. Both make hangout time difficult.

Anyhow. I'm here, writing this now at 5:20 instead of heading home because my boss ended her mediation at 5:00 and I'm concerned she may want to debrief. I called her and haven't heard back though, so I guess I'll wrap it up, go home and watch The Godfather.

Yay.

My apologies for the poorly structured entry, it was kind of just a brain dump.


Never mind, just got an email from my boss. She's coming back here with a group from the mediation (maybe the whole group?).

Damn.

Sounds rough... I kinda like my job.. more than I liked school anyway tbh.

When does Edward arrive?

Did your sisters ask about me? If so, tell 'em I said heeeeeeeeeey

GO MAVS
WHOO
GO MAVS

and um.. yeah i can't think of anything else i wanna say.

Oi, stressful times at work = :/
Hopefully you'll find someone that fits Daniel's position soon to help with workload.

Nine projects?! That sounds mega intense. D:

Also, brain dumps are fine! I... pretty much never structure my entries, but so far nobody has raised a ruckus about it. :P
