the show for the 8th brought actual tears to my eyes.

2. the stupid bank charged me two overdraft charges which is complete baloney. don't they think i'm a pro at managing my money down to the second? it's simple: monday i schedule an online payment to occur tuesday. monday night i put the money in the overnight deposit box. tuesday morning the money is credited to my account and then the online payment occurs. ta-da! if i had the money sooner i'd have taken care of it sooner, but nooooo. so it turns out that my deposit got stuck in the top of deposit box and they didn't find it till thursday! psh. i called, they are going to take away my overdraft charges. i hate my bank. plain and simple.

3. i got a new job today! starting in a week i will be babysitting a one year old baby two days a week. so that ups my income by quite a bit. hallelujah! i told the store to shove it. no that's a lie. i told them i can still work tuesday, friday, and saturday. they can deal with it. if the interview works out then i'll quit the store and pray that the new job can work around the babysitting schedule.

4. i should hear about the interview in the next few weeks. i guess it went well. after the interview they let me into the center for free. one of the guys showed me the baby sea horses and the other showed me how they feed them. it was so cool! i got to wander around for an hour and a half before i had to go back home. good times. so again, good signs that they let me in for free and showed me cool stuff? i think they liked me....i don't know. i get so nervous and i doubt myself. why is it that i feel so completely inadaquate when it comes to jobstuff? i had a dream last night that i had finished my interview and was then sent downstairs to two old ladies who were assigning jobs. so i went down there with my paperwork and they were reviewing it and speaking in stage whispers "it says here to assign her a desk job or a paperwork job, she doesn't have enough science knowledge". and there you have it: my dreams speaking volumes about my confidence. even my dreams are teling me i'm not adequate enough!

5. i'm reading two books: Eat Cake by Jeanne Ray and The Dive from Clauson's Pier by Ann Packer (i think). strangely enough both of them have main characters who deal with stress in weird ways. one bakes cakes to relieve stress and one sews dresses. ha! i think i am both of those people. nothing makes me happier these days than to bake cookies! i'm perfecting my recipie. as the roommate's boyfriend put it "you're making cookies! you're damn good at it too". heh. i wish i could work out baking cookies for a living. or knitting/crocheting stuff. i guess they'll just have to continue to be my forms of stress relief.

yea i don't know why these are numbered.
