This layout was made out of love for Yana, who loves all things Sawyer, designer handbags, and stylish chicks. And look: CSS. Holy shit.
So I'm really sick of being a lazy procrastinator who neglects her blog (and yea, everything else for that matter). I almost forgot how to do this stuff, but cramming all I have been cramming in the last week or so (I still am trying to avoid actually transferring domain names and all - I am a wuss and just afraid of clicking the wrong button and deleting all my junk), but seeing as my jerk of a brother has gotten into this stuff, I am determined to make a comeback just to feel smug that I own him when it comes to this (he claims to be making over a hundred dollars a day in designing, so somebody explain why he won't just move out and stop harrassing Mom for money?).
I'm kind of excited to be in this mood; it's a rare one because I only remember being this productive once or twice before and enjoying it (namely when I first opened ba.net)
The library job is going well, much better than I could have hoped for. I thought it was going to be rough at first because I left a family of sorts over at the college, but I walked right into a new one, and it's like I was there all along. I've already established myself as the funny, spirited girl who wears the cool/funny shirts. My supervisor is fantastic. I think she really understands where I'm coming from, and she seems to know when I'm in a mood because she makes a point to ask me how I am doing whenever she thinks I'm getting too quiet. I really like everyone over there, and I'm glad they're a fun, easygoing group because I was beyond nervous when I was in training. I thought I would never pick it up, but I did, and now I can enjoy the sexy librarian jokes to the full extent.
Highlights of working at the library include:
» Free food almost everyday because the staff is a bunch of pigs and one of us is always bringing in something
» "You owe $25 in fines." "Can't you just delete that for me?" "......"
» Thinking I broke the the coffee machine and being mercilessly teased about it TO THIS DAY, even though it ended up that Mary didn't put in the coffee filter, which explained why the coffee didn't stop gushing out after I used it
» Trying not to laugh and being scared shitless each time I have to CAREFULLY tell someone that he/she has Meet The Fockers on hold
» Having a forty-something-gross-year-old come to me twice and try to pick me up, even giving me a card in the process, which my supervisor promptly tossed after he left
» Supervisor watching over me makes me nervous; supervisor must turn her back every time I stamp a CD case because otherwise I smear the ink or don't press hard enough
» "Michelle?" "I didn't do it." "Yes you did."
» DARK CHOCOLATE IS NOT THE ONLY CHOCOLATE SOMEONE GET SOME PLAIN MILK CHOCOLATE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD
Jezzy and Josh will be glad to know I finally immersed myself in Firefly and am now a HUGE fan, and in turn got Mom and Chris addicted to it as well. It's really a shame and a shock that that show got cancelled because it was so well done. The dialogue was superb and the cast simply rocked. Just another reason why FOX needs to shove it.
The Lost Season 1 DVDs came; delicious.
I won't let work suck up my life anymore, promise. I plan to be as active as possible, perhaps to the point of insanity.
