I finally got ahold of Southwest today. Why is it that every time I'm about to be hired the woman handling my hiring goes on maternity leave and, pardon my lack of eloquence, shit gets messed up? I FINALLY got to speak the woman who called me last week saying Jennifer' left me a message on the 8th and I never got back to her. The 8th was the day she told me I needed my drug test, and she got the ID number from me that Thursday. Yes, she DID hear from me. We spoke on the phone. The gist of today's conversation was, "there WAS a spot, but I guess she already filled it so OOPS...maybe we'll give you a call next month...your background check is on file for 11 months." I really needed that phone call to have a start date in it.
The stress level of the day has NOT gone down. There's supposed to be some big wig from the top visiting our store tomorrow, so we were in "clean and organize" mode. Sales were shitty, and I have never felt so uncomfortable in a work uniform in my life as I do now that this shirt thing is being enforced. Today I felt ugl, and fat, and dirty. It was just one of those days.
I tried to get Chris to have dinner with me at the mall, but that backfired. He's making dinner we can eat while we watch TV. I love sitting on the couch with him, but we never really have conversations unless there's something we have to do or there's something wrong. I'd like to sit and have a conversation over a HOT meal (which is another issue altogether) one night, whether it's mall food or not.

And now..the (phonetically stress relieving) coo de GRAAAAAAH.... we STILL have no hot water! I hunted down the emergency maintenance number, but they haven't come yet so I still haven't had a chance to shower.

God give me patience...or knock me out quickly tonight so tomorrow can start a better day...and rent...we'd really like that too...
No one's really around to vent to, which is probably good because all I've done is be a puling bitch. Meh.

Ok enough...time to edit some more photos from last night. I can't wait to post them!
