Nothing to Say
While some may cheer wildly, I’ve really been thoughtless lately and, thus, haven’t had much to say. I feel so drained and brain dead.
Work has been chaotic, to say the least. As a result of one person changing departments and two people quitting, I am now the saleman in Home Theater who has been there the longest. It’s an interesting change in pace as I’m quikly becoming one of those “go to” guys when questions arise. While it’s nice and definitely adds security to my job, it means more stress for the same pay. The good thing is the timing, though. My review is right around the corner and with my value to the department increasing, so may the raise I receive. I do work for the money, afterall. We’ll see what happens. Worse comes to worse, I’ll burn the place down.
C.C.D. has finally started and I’m loving it. I have a really good class with some excellent students so teaching is easier and more fun. It’s still early and I know there will be bad days, but I love teaching and I’m just happy to be back in the classroom.
While I’m not going into extreme detail, the love life has been perculating a little. While Maria and I aren’t moving any closer, Alyssa has popped up again. Each time she appears, she’s a little less “crazy” than before and I finally find myself enjoying our phone conversations. Of course, if she does the usual, she’ll vanish next week and that will be it for 3 months, but hey, it never hurts to try. At least I know I’ll piss a few people off just by mentioning her name (haha).
To close it off, last week, another wonderful Neowin member tried flaming me repeatedly for working at Best Buy. I almost got upset, then, I realized that I have a job and I have a certain amount of power in my position. What’s to be ashamed of? Nothing, so I simply laugh at his pathetic attempts now. I love you too, buddy.
