All Hallow’s Eve

Wednesday, October 31st, 2007

Didn’t do anything horribly exciting today.

Went to work, they had a pumpkin carving contest.  No one won because no one really participated.

Went to my bf’s house to watch silly B-rated horror movies.

They were funny.

But ya, *shrug* nothing excites me on this night.

Happy new year!

The Matadors Doorman remembered me from 2 BMEfests ago.

The show was awesome. I don't think I'd ever been sprayed in the face with so many substances before in my life. Going home… I watched a drunken joint fall off the last step of the escalator, before making really stupid WWF/E imitations to a subway car full of people who looked at him like he was a drunken idiot.

This morning I purchased <3+.com

Decisions!

Two Thursdays ago I interviewed with a company in my field, that is on the up & up and expanding and growing in a good way. One Thursday ago they brought me in to hang out with someone to show me what the job would be, and I would be excellent at it. I should hear back at the beginning of this week whether or not I got it.

This afternoon I was called by my old company that fired me two years ago, then brought me back for a few months, then I told to screw off (Because I was pissed they fired me) asking if I was interested in working for them because my former co-worker ended up on sick-leave.

Either way, I want out of the bastard company I'm at now. I'm wondering how far I can push negotiations at both companies. HELP!

(Original forum unavailable, sorry)*

Stupid bastard exchange rates!!!

This is what PayPal just spit at me:

Oct. 17, 2007 Currency Conversion Completed Details -$21.09 USD
Oct. 17, 2007 Currency Conversion Completed Details $20.00 CAD
Exchange Rate: 1 U.S. Dollar = 0.948707 Canadian Dollars

WTF?? I just paid more in USD than I did in Canadian! By a LOT!

So I work a full day tomorrow

My work is so understaffed now they're asking for people to come in on Saturday. Only one problem, they won't pay overtime until you hit a full 88 hours in the particular pay period. Screw that.

Besides, I got myself signed up for some photography job in about 2 weeks time. All I need now is Phil's 7 megapixel webcam and I'm all set!
