Wow, almost a month between updates. I am a disgrace.
I am going to spoiler everything so you can pick what you want to read.
1) Jobs
SPOILERS! (Click to view)
Well, I keep finding jobs that I am qualified for but I cannot get an employer to call me back. I hate sending my resume out through email. It is so impersonal. Let me talk to someone and I am in. Only once have I gone on am interview and not been offered a job... and I have been on quite a few interviews. There are 2 jobs at Guitar Center which I indirectly interviewed for. Neither of which I am really interested in because they are a pay cut from what I make now and I don't make SHIT now. One has the potential of making decent money but I would have to move... again, which I don't really want to do. Unless it is to Anchorage, AK, Ireland, or maybe even Portland, OR
2) I pooped in a cooler... almost
SPOILERS! (Click to view)
We had a surprise birthday party for a guy I work with. Well the morning of the party the shitty neighbors threw dog shit at their house and car. It's a long story why but trust me it was no cause to do that. So when everyone got to the party, I actually heard about what happened. So me, being the good friend I am said I would go gladly take a shit on one of their cars. Found which car (actually it was a truck) it was and found a cooler in the back with some beers in it. Better idea. I will shit in the cooler and put it back in the truck. the next 2 days it was going to be hot so it would bake in there. Nice. So half way through the night, I went outside grabbed the cooler and took it around the side, had the lid open and was undoing my belt when I hear, "Hey! WTF are you doing?" Busted. Played it off like I was drunk and put the cooler back... poop free. Dammit! Word got around fast the next day at work and I was hailed as an instant GC legend for even attempting it. Odd... I didn't even accomplish the mission.
3) Turning 30
SPOILERS! (Click to view)
Well, September 7th I turn 30. I am going to New Orleans to visit my brother. Hopefully it will not be Dante's 7th ring of hell hot down there. Should be cool, pun completely intended. I am interested in seeing what it looks like now. Plus my brother knows where all the cool underground places are to hang out. There is only 1 thing I really want to do while I am there... Dunbar's Fried Chicken. Best fried Chicken ANYWHERE... hands down. But good luck finding it.
4) Girlfriend
5) Hair
SPOILERS! (Click to view)
I am going to dye (what's left of my) hair black in about 5 minutes. Growing up my hair was always beach blonde until I got to college and it started falling out. Now it is mostly brown but the other day I stood outside all day and it started turning blonde again. Wierd. Doesn't matter. It'll be black soon enough.
1) I say hold out for what you want jobwise. Don't settle. I've done that before and it only leads to a life of "this sucks". And think of it this way -- do you really want to work for someone who doesn't return calls? Naaah.
2) Pooped in a cooler -- that's a headline worthy of the tabloids!
3) I've been thinking about your 30th. I figured you'd have some kind of party that I could secretly crash. But now I've kinda blown the surprise so.......
4) What?!? I thought you were actively trying to date more. Just not finding the right someone?
5) I need pictures of the new do. Seriously.
Thanks for the PM the other day. Life is weird right now in big ugly ways but I'm hangin' in there. I just self medicate by working too much.
I agree with the above poster's comments: don't settle- either for a job or girlfriend. You deserve the best. If you'd have pooped in a cooler, I think as cool as you are on my list, you'd have gotten cooler (pun intended).
