Yay For Weekends
Currently Listening To: A Pirate Looks At Forty- Jimmy Buffet
I went to a tour, and a job interview with UPS this week. It was all kind of a blur, I really didn't want to apply, but Chris sort of rushed me into it. So I have a few weeks before I'll hear from them again, but I doubt I'd get the job. There were a few guys who were buffer, and with more experience than me. Which is fine, because I think I want to look for a slightly less hectic job. It was nice that the job involved me just loading a truck all by my lonesome, able to listen to my music, not wearing a uniform, and the benefits were awesome, but I seriously doubt I could keep up with the ridiculously fast pace the job demands. I'm not able, currently, to be chucking packages at a rate at 1 package after another for 4 straight hours. At least, not right now. Anyway, it's probably best that I find a slightly less demanding job, not to mention a job that's a bit closer, rather than about 10 miles away *L* A job that I could ride my bike to until I get my license.
That's my main motivation to getting a job right now, anyway. I want to be able to afford insurance, so I can get a license and not be tempted to drive without insurance. A few friends of mine, including Chris, had made that mistake, and they're paying assloads of money for it. Chris, fortunately, got insurance right away after he got his ticket, and they waived the fine. But I'm not stupid, I learn from others' mistakes as well as my own. It pays to pay attention now and again.
I'm crossing my fingers that maybe, just maybe, a music store will be hiring. Even for just a stockperson. That would be super-fucking-amazingly-awesome. I've been missing marching band a lot lately, and maybe if I found something based in music I'd ease that ache a bit.
If not, I'll find something. But I'm a bit nervous. I'd have to ask for a week off in September when I apply, and that never goes well. I'm afraid that it will hurt my prospects. But I suppose I've just gotta keep my fingers crossed and keep on trying.
Even though this week's been fairly light stops wise, the week has felt hectic and crazy. For two days, I got up, rushed to job interviews, rushed out of job interviews and rushed back to working with Chris. Not to mention it's been hot and sticky all week. Blaaaaaaaaah. I'm glad it's the weekend, 'cause I plan to plain veg out.
It keeps catching me off guard: My wedding will be in 2.5 months. O.O It seems so far away, but I know those months will pass by before I realize it. I'm so damned excited! Oh! I finally got a hold of Brian, and we're taking Dom in to get her dress fitted and bought this weekend. Also, Chris and I are going to shop around and figure out where we're gonna register.
