My Life Thus Far
Ain't Irony A Bitch?
***
I'm not ready to add a 4th star. My days aren't that
great. I'm just getting by at this point. Nothing
wonderful is happening and nothing terrible is happening.
I'm just kind of floating on a breeze. Just barely getting
by.
This morning Kiki kind of gave me a scare. I went in to
get her dressed and her face was was red, her eyes were
swollen and crusted shut. I had to stifle a panic. My
rational mind remembered that the same thing happened to
her last Spring. So, we dropped Annie off at school and I
brought her home. I wiped her eyes with a warm cloth
(which she seemed to like, even though she hates having
her face wiped. I think her eyes must have itched). Then I
gave her some Zyrtec (which initially makes her very
sleepy). We laid down in my bed and watched cartoons for
awhile and she fell asleep. So did I, which was nice. I
woke up around noon to an empty bed. Kiki was up and about
playing with her toys and eating cookies. Her eyes were
still a little puffy and red, but they were open and not
crusty. I decided at this point I wouldn't have to call
in. She'd be okay. So, I dropped her off at daycare and I
went to work. Crisis averted. Now I know to give her her
Zyrtec again every morning. I didn't do it during the Fall
and Winter months, but I'd better get back on top of it.
Work was good. I was put back in my comfort zone. The cash
wrap. I rewarded them with 3 cards and a couple green
segments (that basically means we made more than our goal
for a 2 hour period). I make it a point add something on
to everyone's purchase. Every dollar adds up! Anyway. I
guess there had been some drama before I got there. Jessi,
one of the older girls who've been here longer than me,
was a little sore that I got offered the management
position (old news, really. That was last week, but okay).
So, she went off at Tamara (never a good idea) about how
she's been with the company for 3 years and SHE deserves
that promotion. I don't know why she was so sore about it.
I turned the job down. I guess it was just the fact that
she wasn't even asked. So, she put in her 2 weeks and
doesn't want to speak to me. Bitch. She smiled in my face
last time I worked with her. I'm not upset about it. She's
just jealous. Tamara told me her behavior just showed her
that she wasn't ready to be in management anyway. I think
it's kind of funny. Her I am not even wanting the position
and she's got her panties in a bunch because she can't
have it. Ain't irony a bitch?
I have nothing left to say, so I suppose I'll close for
the night. I want to take a shower and get to bed at a
decent hour. Kiki has therapy in the morning and I don't
want to be late. Ciao.
