Ask and ye shall receive?

I have been in a hellacious mood this week....except for a few moments of silliness. Every little thing has been bugging me...I suppose it's just frustration from working two jobs and a pretty pathetic social life. Christy is the only person I've hung out with lately....and she is AWESOME and we always have fun...but me being busy and her being a mommy/fiance doesn't allow for much hangout time! All I know is that I'm tired of being miserable 75% of the time...and that is not an exaggeration.

I was just thinking the other day that even though I 'love' working at Starbucks, and I work with great, funny people...I really am sick of that whole environment...serving food/drinks, that is. But what else can I do and support myself. The puppet center is only a weekend job....and there aren't really any other full time theatre jobs like that available at the moment (believe me, i've been looking), so I felt 'trapped' . Well, Lo and Behold, my phone rings yesterday and it's my old boss from the RiverCenter in Columbus, offering me a pretty sweet job back there. Full time w/ benefits...and more responsibility! But it is more on the business side of things...which isn't my dream, but I do enjoy it and it would be nice to be genuinely financially stable for the first time in I don't know how many years...

And of course there are performance opportunities down there, too. And it's a great town.

But is it worth it to put my serious acting plans on hold another year or two? I've put them off for one b/c of money, and that hasn't improved yet....

I won't know for sure if the job is even going to exist...he said to give him a month to get the details worked out...and i would still have to apply and interview for it. But I'm at the top of the list and they all know me...hopefully I impressed them enough during the 2 months I worked there last summer! And hopefully they won't remember that one big screw-up I made that almost cost them a patron! haha....that was scary...but it was my first week! That crazy old lady tricked me into giving her seats that were already taken! OOOPS!!!

About to snap....

I can't wait for the day when I am no longer working in a 'customer service' type of job where people think they can talk to you any way they want and treat you like dirt...

I seriously wanted to punch some poeple this weekend...at Starbucks AND at the Puppet Center.

The customer is NOT always right and I really think it's terrible to make them think that they are.

Although I am worried that I WILL snap soon and get myself fired....

Ugh. Bitches.

I think my dad just called me hot...

My dad is a big dork...and while he can be pretty funny sometimes, I still get shocked by comments he makes that remind me of my friends. Several times in conversations he references the 'many boyfriends' he thinks I have...and I think he once used the term 'sluttin' it around town'. Seriously. Like, I think he's joking, but sometimes I think he thinks I'm a big hussy.

No comments from the peanut gallery, please.

So tonight, I asked him to help me go pick out a bike. I wanted to get an inexpensive one that will get me to work and back during the week to save on gas. I figured we could find a decent one at Wal-Mart. So we go look...looking at a couple, dad's doing the whole seat adjustment stuff, making me get on and see if my feet could touch, blah blah blah....then he starts getting all 'i don't know...it might not be safe...i don't think i should help you pick one'. So he tells me to go talk to someone at the bike shop - now, i know somebody there could help me better, but they will also talk me into buying an expensive bike! I'm a girl, I can't say no! (Hmm...speaking of being a hussy....) HA! But he told me to just talk to them about it and get the information...THEN he says:

'Cuz if you go in there, you know you can get a man to talk to you' and gives me that 'you know what i mean' look...

Really, dad? Really? Did you just pull a Joe Simpson on me?
