It could have been worse - a lot worse, but it was bad enough as is.

Zoo summer camp was hectic, and this year seemed to be worse than all the other years I have worked there. Worse kids, worse parents, worse teenage volunteers, worse work drama! And somewhere in there, one of the higher ups in my department made an arbitrary (and illegal) decision not to pay overtime, even if the teachers worked overtime. If they hadn't understaffed us to begin with, nobody would need to work overtime....

I finally got another second job - working at another bookstore. This one is technically a warehouse - books are insanely cheap (Right now, everything is $2. EVERYTHING. Next week it all drops to $1.) The work is very easy (no computers involved. Only machines are a very old register, calculator, and fax machine, lol.)

I can see this becoming a serious threat to my bank accounts. Oh, and my bookshelves are already full. No room for more, but I'll find a way.

Most of you guys know how paranoid I am. Tomorrow and the next day, they are doing inspections at our apartment complex (we never get very much notice. Usually two days at best.)

I may have gotten a sunburn, and come home to mites in my house, but I'm feeling great!

My dad recently bought a restaurant - up in Michigan. I want to move home so bad. Already been promised a job there if I want it (I'll think on it)

Just visited for the weekend (family reunion) when I stopped in at my old (better-paying job) DQ, the manager I used to work with offered to hire me back as soon as she could (I left on very good terms, and a favored worker.) I told...

I have been trying to get healthy. My family on both sides has a very long history of diabetes, obesity, heart problems, and other weight-related issues. I'd like to avoid those altogether. A friend of mine from work is training for a triathlon, so I decided to join her, and we can be mutually motivating. If I have the spare $25 fee when it's due, I might even compete in it, who knows.

I'm trying to kick some of my junk eating habits, and so far, so good. Sugar is the hardest thing...
