I got the job! Well, if you can call it a job...basically I'm the Monday night gym girl, chillin out at the counter and yes, working out while at work, grahahaha. It's not a very busy place, and apparently I can use the equipment during my shift provided that I help out anyone who needs a hand or some advice. It just opened a few months ago, right downtown, super clean and the dude is a really laid back personal trainer who's gonna show me the ropes. In turn for 3 hr of work a week I get a full membership and am paid for the odd saturday. Was hoping to find a job with a litlte more income, but I was looking for a gym to go to anyway, so this is kind of killing two birds with one stone.
And did I mention I saw the Peppers last night?!
And now the sad news...I told Seth about the mishap with Smiles (aka Miles, but c'mon, Smiles is way cuter)...I didn't have a # to call him at, so I sent him and email telling him to call me when he got it. I didn't think he would receive the email that night so I wasn't expecting a call and therefore had more time to collect my thoughts and to, well, stop crying! But of course, he got the email right away and called about 15min later, so I was completely unprepared with what to say and tried to delay it as much as possible, "so, how ya been? new job? that's great! just wanted to see what was up, dum dee dum, bla bla bla..." It felt like one of those scenes in a movie where a dude wants to break up with his clingy girlfriend but doesn't know how to say it and tries to stall and delay as much as possible...Yeah, I almost didn't tell him. But eventually after much talk of the weather I did, and he was upset. He had to comfort me more though, because I was crying and sniffling the whole time, lol. Yep, sissie, right over here. Like that one time, when we hit a kangaroo...I went back to see...I found him lying down alone in the quiet darkness under the stars in the Australian countryside. Between his heaving and suffering I pet him softly, telling him it would be okay; I just wanted to give him a big hug but I was afraid he'd kickbox my face in with his giant feet...
...And then he was put out of his misery with a shovel
