Big Birthday Week for the Roommate!

Every so often I actually do something good for a customer and then find I have a renewed zest for my position here at Hugs and Kisses. That usually lasts……oh, maybe an hour or so until something stupid comes up to remind me why I hate it here. I do something fun and actually in my job description and feel good about it and before you know it I'm back to cleaning up someone else's mess, which believe me, here at H&K it ain't pretty. Imagine cleaning up after a circus elephant with a stomach virus, that kind of fun. The fact that it doesn't seem to matter if I show up or not doesn't help any, either. I keep looking for the job fairy to pay me a visit and plop down some very attractive position somewhere with a very attractive paycheck attached but that hasn't happened in the past few months, and I've been looking. Goddamn paycheck, it's the ONLY thing keeping me here.

Hating Shawna for her good fortune. Just kidding---congrats chica! Hope the grass is actually greener since mine turned out to be astro turf, all fake and plastic and uncomfortable. You lucky wench. When you send the job fairy a thank you note, put in a good word for me.

Other than that, a whole lot is going on as very soon it will be the Birthday of the Roommate, a grand 8 day festival filled with good friends and booze! What a way to ring in his fifth decade (since he's turning 40! Doesn't look a day over 39 and a half if you ask me, snicker snicker). It's all hush-hush at the moment but soon I can share. And I'll take pictures!
