One of the things you should know about me is my distaste for a lot of drama bullshit. If you can see a train coming a mile away then common sense would tell your dumb ass to MOVE OUT OF THE WAY! So it is with drama. Unfortunately some people are blind, deaf and dumb when the drama train comes screeching down the line and they just sit there right on the tracks waiting for the light to turn green. There are a few drama queens out there and you know who you are. I happen to be one of those people that attracts drama queens. No matter how much common sense I throw at these poor helpless creatures, “Drop his ass like a hot potato” or “I wouldn’t go to that party if I were you. You are just setting yourself up.” They just go about their merry business headlong into a wall of disappointment, anguish, anxiety and God knows what else.

I, on the other hand, can see it coming. At least that’s the way I like to tell it. I recently quit working at the neighborhood bar that I frequent. Why did I quit you may ask. Well, first of all the boss made EVERYONE nervous when he walked in the door. Secondly, he only wanted girls with big tits working behind the bar. I’ve gotten a little fatter but not that fat. I could see the latter playing havoc with one of the bartender's psyche. He was sure the owner had it in for him even though he didn’t do anything wrong. I found out the owner did want him gone. The other problem was the new manager practicing a bit of cronyism. She fired a really nice guy to hire some goober (actually he was fine as hell) who didn’t know anything. When I asked her about hiring my friend back she had the NERVE to tell me it was because she needed someone with more experience behind the bar. OH HELL NO! I called her on that one right away. She tried to backslide a bit but to no avail. So with the impending train wreck heading right for me I did the only thing that made sense. I MOVED out of the way. I feel much better for it. Thank you.

Oh me, oh my! One minute (more like one year) I’m sitting at home watching the entire run of bewitched for the third time and desperately seeking employment (and something to do) and the next minute I’m up to my perfectly manicured finger nails (held high above my head for someone to rescue me!) with two jobs, a business and a position on the condominium board. I should probably start with the new position. The IT job is going well. Just got back from New York. I will discuss that in another post. One thing I’ve noticed is that people treat you different when you get a promotion. One minute I’m in the common area in my little cubicle and the next I’m in an office with a door. I never thought a door could make such a difference but let me tell you it does! I’ve been getting little comments left and right. They are all thinly veiled in humor but these folks are serious! I think their jealousy is derived from the fact that they all had offices with doors and now they are forced to reside in cubicles with their backside exposed to the world. GET OVER IT I say!

Next there is the new part time job working at my favorite bar Streetside. I started going there months ago and begged for a job the entire time until I was finally offered the prestigious position of barback. One night a week and it’s all cash! House music abounds in this quaint neighborhood watering hole. I’m still doing the treasury thing with the condo and all of its headaches. Unfortunately FASiT has been floundering. I just don’t have the time! But all in all things are going well. So much has happened over the past month and a half but I don’t know when I will find the time to make the entries. But don’t give up on me yet! There is more to come.
