the boss is in town today. the office manager informed us that we will be having a meeting with the boss tomorrow about our raises/bonus checks. we are to receive bonus checks every december and july. lately, we have been bugging him about our raises and bonus checks. i'm wondering why it has to come down to a 'big' meeting tomorrow? hopefully, the meeting won't be bad news. i'd be pissed if we find out we are not getting our bonus checks and i'll be REALLY pissed if we don't get a raise. we were supposed to get our yearly raise in january. what month is it now? it's freaking july! dang, my boss can be a real shit head. this is one reason i put my ass through school.
yesterday, they exterminated the whole apartment complex. the memo the office sent us told us to clear out all drawers, cabinets, and closets. we had to bag everything! it took me 5 hours on sunday to do this and it was my day off. i actually felt like i was moving out of my apartment. the kitchen was stripped. there was nothing on the counters, nothing in the drawers, and nothing in the pantry. i really don't understand why they had to do this. i have not seen a roach in my apartment since i moved in. i moved to this apartment complex in february 2001. they also posted that they have to do a follow up in 14 days. however, i do think that someone must have been infested with roaches and they were afraid they were going to migrate into other apartments. this was such an inconvenience for me because i had to take my kittys away for a day in order for them to do this and i will have to probably do it again in 14 more days. dang...
i have 13 more days until i finally finish school. yipee. no more 12 hour days for me anymore.....actually not for a while that is. i think i will keep this job that i have as a part time job working from home because i probably need some extra money to pay my tuition off. anyway, i gotta go. the boss is walking around here some where and i don't want to be caught.:)

i know i haven't been blogging much these days. i feel so drained all the time, and since i sit in front of the computer most of the time, i think i just got fed up with the logging on logging off deal.
i ditched school today and decided to come into work to try and make up some hours that i missed. we have a long pay period, which consists of 12 days, but so far, i've missed 2 1/2 days. i wonder when i will actually get a full pay check? i don't think it will ever happen. i usually get tired within the first or second week and decide to miss a couple of days. blah. they don't say shit about our absences so i don't really care. i would probably care more if they would get after us, but they don't. i like it this way and hopefully it won't ever change.
i have a bunch of pictures i took over the father's day weekend, but i haven't had the chance to reinstall all my programs back into my computer since i formatted my computer at home. dang, that is such a drag. i lost everything! so far, all i've installed was winamp, winmx, office 2000, norton antivirus, and yahoo messenger. i need to get on the ball and start installing my crap before i completely forget.
i've also added a new addition to the household. i got a new kitten. his name is zoey. actually, i'm not really sure if it is a boy or a girl, but i sure hope it is a boy because that is what we wanted. i don't really know yet, usually, you can tell if it is a boy/girl until it's about a month or two. my gigi hated the kitten when we first brought it home, but now she is being motherly. she sits there licking the heck out the kitten. the kitten even tries to suckle on her stomach. it's so cute. i will post the pics up sooner or later, but for now i am taking pictures of them as the days go by.

i had to format my computer, which totally sucks. i spent my day trying to get my cable modem to work and trying to install all my programs i had on my computer. i still haven't finished installing every yet. i was so frustrated today. i was listening to music early this morning and then i had opened up two different programs at the same time and then my computer locked up so i restarted my computer and then the computer didn't want to load up windows any more. i am so sad. i lost every thing that i had saved on my computer. i almost ended up driving to fry's electronics and buying me whole new computer. i was that frustrated. i should be okay tomorrow though. i have enough time to load every thing back up. i should be leaving back to the reservation after 2pm tomorrow. i hope you all have a wonderful father's day because i know i sure will.

i worked on saturday and when i got home i practically plopped on the bed and fell asleep as soon as i layed down. i guess i was really exhausted. i remember at one time i thought i was dreaming i was at work. i think i was delirious. i didn't get much done that morning , but i don't give a damn really.
after i woke up from my long nap, brian and i decided to make our way to walmart. we decided to visit the walmart at the spectrum mall (christown). the bbq grill was our main reason for visiting the place. i hate going to that walmart because you can run into the weirdest people there. often times you will run into soliciters who will try to sell you tamales or either a person walking around wanting to sell you an 18k gold necklace or bracelet. i tell ya, this place is getting to be really ghetto. i try and avoid that walmart at all times, but i was too tired to go to the other walmart that we usually go to. anyway, we make our way into walmart dodging people and avoiding all chaos until we made our way to the back where the bbq grills were displayed. we found the bbq grill we wanted, but we noticed that the grill we wanted wasn't on the shelf , so brian had to go and flag a fellow walmart employee down to ask if there was any in the back. there was only 3 left. i am so fortunate to get a grill in time because those things were going quick. i got it on sale, $160 buckaroos. my dad will definitely love this new toy. i just know it.
on sunday, we went to go watch too fast too furious and finding nemo. i enjoyed both movies, but i enjoyed watching too fast too furious the most. it was funny, interesting, and you get to see all them cool cars and trucks. i loved tyrese's humor and mmmmmm...he looked good too....oh did i say that out loud?

i was told the other day that women can have one breast larger than the other........i've heard of fingers and feet being like that, but breasts? i don't know about that. anyway, i'm here at work. i got in around 1am and now its about 1:45. i haven't started on anything yet. i've been surfing the net and checking email ever since i came in.
yesterday, i turned in my employment application at a nearby hospital. i'm crossing my fingers hoping that i will get in. i've been surfing the internet looking around and getting ready to look for jobs since i'm graduating in a couple of weeks. i need to get out of this so-called job that i have. i've been here too long and its time for me to move on, don't get me wrong, the pay here is good, but i just need to be in a place where i know there can be advancement opportunities. you definitely will not get it here unless you are a man. this so-called place that i work at is dominated by men! they are not the ordinary kind of men, they are freaking pigs and can be so inconsiderate at times. i don't understand how their women can put up with their butts.
i'm probably going to be leaving today around 9am. i missed a couple of days this week so i'm trying to make up some hours. i hate working on saturdays, but i know i have bills to pay. i know when i get home in the morning i'm going to go straight to bed. i've only had about 3 hrs of sleep and i know it will soon take its toll on me mentally and physically.

ohhhhh....i cannot wait until father's day weekend rolls around. i have one more week to go. brian and i decided that we would take the truck back to ft. defiance to try and get some rez mud on our truck. lately, i have been seeing a lot of rez trucks driving around town. i wonder what is going on? i can usually recognize a rez vehicle because of a native sticker or red rez mud plastered all over their vehicle. usually, when i see one of them vehicles, i try and imagine where they are from and what they are doing visiting a place that is as hot as an oven. i miss the reservation, i have not been back to my father's house since christmas, so going back on father's day will be such a delight. i haven't informed my dad of our visit, so it surely will be a big surprise. i can't wait to see his expression on his face when we pull into the drive way.
I'm not really sure on what to get him for father's day. i'm contemplating on whether to visit a christian store or a store that sells bbq grills. see, i usually try and call my dad every sunday or every other sunday and so far on the sundays that i do call, he is usually in the process of bbqing or he had just finished bbqing for the family. sheesh, ever since my dad purchased that bbq grill he has been the bbq king. he can probably bbq any thing in the frig. anyway, i've been looking on the internet for some and here's a few that i've been looking into getting for him: Thermos Quickset Charcoal/Gas Grill, Fiesta Optima Gas Grill, Uniflame Premium 40,000-BTU Gas Grill. i'm still looking, but more than likely it will probably be one of those that i listed.
i was also given this link and this slot game can be so addicting. For one, you are actually playing and winning and two you are not playing with real money, now don't you just wish those machines can play like this in a real casino? sucks huh?

awwww........i have nothing really going on. i didn't do much this weekend. i'm very frustrated with my insurance company. i mean, if they are short on staff, why don't they hire more people? i called them on monday to have them add another vehicle to my policy, but i have not heard from them. i had to go out of my way to call them. it's crazy, i mean, don't they realize that they are going to lose business because of their inability to get back to their customers right away? tomorrow, will be the third day i will be calling over there to check on the status of my policy. dang, it just makes want to go over there and raise some hell with them. arrgghhhh....i'm so mad right now...... i will probably go home and sulk. brian will come to my rescue......
