Here’s what’s happening…

♥ I bought a pair of rubber boots online. I’ve been trying to get a pair for years, but I never seem to be able to find the perfect combination of the right size (11) and the right calf width (wide… really wide). I searched all over and found the crocs website and thought, what the hell. They come in 11 and they said wide calf. Well, the lied. The boot is super cute and it fits perfectly everywhere… except around the very top at my calf. I might end up just cutting the top of the boot and dealing with it. Fuck my life.

♥ I applied for the Assistant Director position at Davern and was super excited about it until I heard that several people from the past few years are planning to return. Suddenly, everyone is applying for resource and there are more people than jobs. I’m crossing my fingers that no one else decides to apply for asst. direc. but I have a bad feeling in my gut that someone will- or already has. The new director made a boo-boo and posted the staff facebook group to the public instead of it being private and everyone got to see who has already been hired. I happened to see someone who would likely be interested in asst. director in the group, but I don’t know what she’d been hired for. I’m trying to find out from other people if they know anything, but they’re all either tight lipped or they don’t know. My interview isn’t until the 9th of February and I would be VERY upset if they hired someone before I even got to interview. Not to mention it’s like a giant kick in the face- since I basically did the job last summer and I have the most experience. … I’m extra nervous about it all because I really want the damn job. 

♥ work is… meh. I’m crossing my fingers for a snow day tomorrow so I don’t have to go in. Last Friday was a snow day, but no one clarified whether I was to go to the Activity Center in the morning as usual, so I drove the hour to get there only to have my boss tell me to go home. Fuck you! I stayed for an hour and caught up on the shit load of paperwork I still needed to do and then I went home and went back to bed. I woke up with a sinus cold from hell that is still driving me nuts.

♥ I’m feeling the winter blues a lot lately. The weather is fucking crazy and it doesn’t help.

♥ My brother gets to go on an all expenses paid vacation to Jamaica in April and I am incredibly jealous. He came home today because he has a doctors appointment tomorrow to get his vaccinations. It’s the first he’s visited us since Christmas- he’s got plans tomorrow night back in K-town so he’s leaving early tomorrow. I’m pissed off at him because he’s only here for the doctor visit and there’s a bed here for him to sleep in. It would be nice if he made time to visit his fucking family. He was supposed to take time off to go to Michael’s Stag & Doe this Saturday, but he didn’t and now he’s working instead of going. I swear to God I’ll wring his neck if he doesn’t take the time off for the reception.

♥ Most of the time I feel pretty good, but for some reason, I just want to curl up in a ball and cry like a freaking baby tonight.
