Out and About

Desk Calendar with the word AUG on it.

Well, I have not updated in a while (what percent of blogs have a post starting with words like that?) Since the CONvergence post happened. Stuff like a Soul Caliber tournament held by Abby, Kyle moving to Florida, Darryl came back from Iraq again. My brother started college at MATC, and so did Tim. Bill’s mom got married and I was invited to the ceremony. I have also discovered the joy of Doctor Who (2005) and The Dark Night.

I need to update more often, it is hard to remember a good story line for old events. At the SoulCal tournament I did ok playing Rock. Won a few matches. At Darryl’s homecoming party we had some great food, a lot of alcohol and some fun times. I ended up staying up till 7 or so in the morning with Carry’s husband Bill. Second time I have done that. I have discovered how cool the Glass Nickel is.

This post is a bit of a mess/a list/rambling. But I am not sure how else to place it. Now to go draw something for an image to include.

I’m a Clerk now.

Well, I got the job. Last night I went in for the interview, and started right after it.

I worked with Darryl, and he showed me all the things I gotta do. Nothing too hard, its just remembering them all! I seem to have gotten the hang of the method the Cash Register works in, I just now need to remember where all the buttons are. The manager seems like a really nice person! She is flexible with hours, very trusting, easy to talk to.

And now I work Friday, then saturday and sunday. Then after that I have my first night alone on the 20th. I hope I get things all figured out before then.

Oh, and I am making $7.50 an hour, with it going up to $8.00 an hour after a month! $7.50hr is much more than I got at ace, and $8.00hr is just crazy! At least for a living at home College student. I guess.

And you know, the night before the interview I realised I would essentially be like the guys in ‘Clerks’. After spending a night there, it does feel like that.

Thanks again Darryl for the job!

Snooch to the booch!
