i don't think i ever want to retire. not that it is even a remote possibility at this point. but, what do people do with their time?
today i've gone to the bookstore. looked through about four publications for jobs. ate at subway. walked a bit. cleaned (very little). ugh.
all the jobs i've found are either shitty or too little pay. at this point, i have to make at least $13 an hour. anything less and i might as well take up residence with all these damn evacuees. seriously. it's getting tough.
oh well. life goes on, i've learned. in the end, it all works out, too. but it's this middle shit that is so rough.
wendell and i are going out to eat somewhere tonight. should be fun. i haven't seen him in about a week, i think. i've just not been up for company.
the key west trip was awesome... and took my mind off things. but now it's back to the real world, as leslee said. yeah, well i'm tired of the real world hassling me (i stole that from a musician).
tomorrow is matt's birthday bash at red chair. i talked to james earlier. he's gonna be there, too. jeanine, i'm sure, will be too. it'll be fun. besides, matt promises to get wasted. that should be hilarious.
there's another job fair friday i'll be attending. thanks to the fuckers at post, i'll have some nice clothes to wear. speaking of which, i went yesterday to pick up money they owed me for uniform alterations (they require dress clothes but stop at waist size 30. we all know mine is 29). seems they've hired a female to replace me. that only helps my argument that i believe david and his insecurities were partly the cause of my being let go.
nicki and nick were very cordial. joelle, kristina and david were their usual selves. bitches. david never stepped from his office, which probably was best. he'll get a piece of mind if i ever see him out. not a threat, but a promise. i doubt he'll ever know, though, because he's a recluse and a poor excuse for a person.
kristina can just go to hell. she's spineless.
enough of that.
there's many of you who i haven't been in contact with and promise i'll try soon. i always like to be positive and there's not much of that right now. as soon as i can make myself, i'll call and we'll catch up. try to understand and not hold it against me, meanwhile.
i need go. sports illustrated came in the mail today.

Are you really so bored that you actually have to care about those people that you hate at Post? I think you should just let it go.
victimhood doesn't really look good on you... you really think you had no part to play in your firing?
Be humble since all of us fall short of the glory of God. However, too few of us have a routine practice of rigorous self-honesty examination. Weekly, even daily, review of our heart and behavior, coupled with confession to God, is an essential practice of humility.
thanks. i know that i, too, fall short of the glory of God. however, i pray each day for strength and faith.
victimhood? sure, i'm certain there were shortfalls of my own. however, when a manager states that i wasn't a team player because i did not eat with the rest of the office, i doubt there are more concrete reasons. there is no doubt in my mind that i was fired due to office politics in addition to any part i might have had.
not that i must cater or explain to an "anonymous" person -- very brave, by the way -- but i had just received two perfect scores on mystery shopper reports.
i volunteered to be in charge of the office fundraiser for our fall food-a-thon.
i filled in at four other post properties in town, one just two days before i was let go.
sure, i may have had shortfalls to play a part in my firing. however, i had many more positive qualities that should have kept me in that office.
