Change, now I need to wake up in the mornings!

Well, starting tomorrow, my hours at work change from afternoons to mornings. Darn, now I have to get out of bed before 10:00! No more watching Street Smarts at 11:30 PM anymore. Oh well, I'll live.

Anyway, I will be trained on how to use our brand new CD duplication equipment. Fun, huh? I get to burn CDs for hours at a time. I am looking forward to this change, but I wonder if I'll be able to still do my two other specific jobs, that I used to do in the afternoon. I hope so, but one of them has always been an afternoon job, and they'd have to hire me full time to let me do it. I hope they've considered hiring me full time, I've wanted to do that since Christmas time. My other gripe about this change is that I won't see my part-time co-workers much (if at all) anymore. Including the "hugger" (which to be honest, I think my mom is happy about, she probably thinks I spent too much time with him, anyway) and the other woman who was hired the same week I was, and I think the other guy who will also be trained on the CDs, too. Weird.

But hey! I'll have my afternoons free, like I did when I was in Bible college. When my best friend is in town again, I'll get to spend afternoons with her sometimes! That rocks!!! Yay! I also plan on taking up cooking, since I'll be home before dinner time. That'll be cool.

In case you wanted to know, my latest song "obsession" is Just the Girl by The Click Five. I don't know why, but I love that song. Also, John Steven's CD Red is pretty good. It's weird to hear This Love, the song that was done by Maroon 5 before as a slow song, but once you get used to it, it's good.

Till next I write!

Lotta writing going on

In the past 24 hours, I have written in my diary, my prayer journal, my dream log and my blog. I wrote about five pages in my diary last night, what I suppose must most likely have been a heck of a lot of nothing. I only wrote about two pages in my prayer journal, and not much more than three pages in my dream log.

A dream log is an interesting thing to keep. It works best when you start writing as soon as you wake up from a dream. It's surprising how much you remember about a dream as soon as you wake up, that you would probably forget in an hour. It's a weird thing to read over later, though. No matter how much detail you provide in the journal, dreams make little to no sense to your "awake mind". This morning, I was able to do something that I've never been able to do, I resumed a dream that I woke up during the middle of. I dreamt that one of my co-workers said something that shocked me awake, I opened my eyes and thought, "What?!?!" then decided I wanted to hear the rest of the conversation, so I went to sleep again. The dream resumed where I'd left off. It was weird. Sure, my waking only lasted a few seconds, but I've never been able to do that before.

Topic change! Boys, just to let you know, it can be really endearing if you notice little things about the girls around you. Ray, a guy I work with, asked what I had done this weekend, and I told him that I went shopping, and bought new shoes, which I was wearing at the time. He looked down at my shoes and said, "Those are Vans! Those aren't Skechers." He remembered that I usually wore Skechers. I found that really nice. However, on the other hand, if you do it too often, you might seem a bit like a stalker. As in most things, there is a fine line between really cute and really creepy. I have no idea what brought that thought on.

I got a book of poetry from the library tonight. First glance through it looked rather promising. It's title suggests that it is for children, but it had some well known poets and a few obscure ones, too. It has "If" by Rudyard Kipling, which I had to memorize for school. I may copy into here, because it's a really good poem.
We'll see.

Till next I write!

Now, updated!

So, my brother e-mailed me and asked why I hadn't updated my blog.

The answer, because nothing is really happening with me! My two best friends are out of town for two weeks, my other best friend hasn't called or e-mailed me since last tuesday and I know that one of my co-workers (a good friend) will be out of town soon, so I'm sitting around feeling lonely and sorry for myself.

That's why I'm not blogging, I'm too busy having a pity-party. I'll try to post a better, cheerier blog tomorrow.

Till next I write!
