Yay, Laptop!

Yay, Laptop!

I got a new laptop over the weekend – another Gateway. My old (4 years for a laptop is ancient) literally committed suicide in July after my trip to California. Ken tried to fix it twice, but to no avail.

New Stolen Icon (I gave credit on my icon page)

New Stolen Icon (I gave credit on my icon page)

Ha. I stole this icon from a random LJ, but I just had to have it. I can’t tell you how many times while I was still working that I would hear (in a very gushy tone) “Oh, yessss, we saw The Ex-Husband over at the cafe at lunch today. He must be doing some clearing at FLAG…” (For those of you who don’t remember, I used to work for a $cient0logy company in downtown Clearwater, FL, a few doors down from the main ‘FLAGship’ CoS building). People like The Ex-Husband Cruise and Lisa Marie Presley were commonplace on the streets near there. I personally never saw them, but I always heard about my co-workers “running into them” on their lunch hour when they went to the CoS FLAG building.

Getting on with it…

Getting on with it…

Well, I did it. While all you bicker about who is the next president or who didn’t win I have been out conspiring with a greater enemy… $cient0logy.

Yes, I decided I wanted… no, NEEDED, to work again. This came as an impulsive idea right after my dialysis treatment today and I wasted no time acting upon it like a ferrel two-year-old with an instant-gratification complex. I took the easy way out by going back to the company I’d worked for for the last 3 years and let them hire me. I don’t know as of yet when I will start, what I will be doing, how much I will be getting paid or what hours I will work, but I will know within a week or so. Obviously I can’t work enough full-time hours to sustain myself 100% so I’ve opted to start off slow, work a few part-time hours, and see how it goes. I can’t make more than $800/month or I lose my SS Disability so I won’t be working all that much… but I could really use the $800 right about now. Especially with the holidays coming up.
