Happy yet sad...

The Rah's and Boo's of a half-finished week...

I'll go with the good news first-One of my friends at work found a new job and will have to quit her night job because of it. Guess who she suggested to take her place... That's right, moi. This will bring in a nice chunk of money for me for only six hours of work (give or take) per week. I'm nervous, it's something that I've never done before. But WOW will the money help. And it gives me an opportunity to explore an occupation that I have been interested in for a long time. Yay. I need to do some paperwork and pretty much train myself. I think it could be a trial by fire, but WHEN I succeed the rewards will be great.



The bad-I will really miss seeing my friend every day. Yeah,
she'll be around. But I'm going to miss her. That is always a
bummer. It just won't be the same. But the opportunity for her
is just outstanding. I certainly can't blame her for taking this chance.
And if it looks really great, maybe she can take me along in a year or so!


Other happiness... VH1 Best Songs of the 90's is on for four glorious hours tonight. 'Nuff said.

Other boos... My dad has been unemployed for almost 6 months. I really don't want to share my happy news because I know that either A) He'll feel crappy and sulk because I walked in to a new job and he can't find one or B) He'll totally rain on my joy by bringing up something I don't want to talk about like tax brackets. Yeah, he can suck that way.

So. Rah and boo. Giggle and cry. Day of ups and downs topped by chex mix for dinner. Things could be worse.
