FFFC, Rants, Vets, UO?
I'm having a horrible day already. The mom from my last position called me yesterday to ask if I would sit for her work Christmas party on Dec. 15. I said sure that would be great! It's 100+ that I could really use. Well, my girlfriend just told me today that that will be the night of her bachlorette party. Dammit. I called/texted/emailed the mom right away so she has plenty of time to find a replacement, but I'm sure that will be the last time I hear from her. Which is fine by me, but I hate burning any bridges. To top it off, my girlfriend is now kinda ticked at me since I should've known that would be her Bach party since her bday is the 15th. I didn't tell her I had taken a sitting job, I just said that I thought her bday was the 12th. Oh well.
I also found out today that I'm basically going to have 16 days off in a row starting next Thursday, which is awesome, but that's also two weeks of little to no pay. I really love this job but it's ridic that they don't pay me when THEY go OOT. I've never had a nanny job that did pay vacation when it was their fault and I'll never take another one again.
I'm really really pissed at my mom and it's taking everything I have to not throat punch her. It sucks because for 10 months things have been awesome and then 2 things change that I have absolutely no control over and she flips her crazy switch. It feels like I'm highschool again when she wouldn't let me get my nails done because I lived in her house and I couldn't waste my money on crap like that. Ugh, it's ridic.
It's been a really rough week and I could use some retail therapy, but now I have to monitor every dime and penny like a hawk. It sucks.

Let's add first world problems to the mix here. My tweetdeck freaked out this morning and was down until just a second ago. I was way more bummed than I should be over that.
I just thought of another confession. I'm seriously considering letting some family friends take Pepper. I've known them my whole life and they probably treat their cats even better than I do. If I have end up moving out, 3 pet deposits will royally suck and I know she'd be in good hands and I would get to see her often. She'd get more atenttion with them and it would just be a better place, plus I wouldnt have to worry about a litter box in an apartment. The whole idea of giving away my pet though is ripping me apart. I know I would flame someone else for this and my pestie side is saying YOU CANNOT DO THIS! Ugh, it's breaking my heart.
First World Problem- TweetDeck crashes on me almost every time I use it.
Vent/AW- DH and I had an arguement this morning b/c I wanted to watch Glee and he wanted to play his game. We're going shopping for a 2nd tv this afternoon.
ETA: Vent - My MIL said she was going to transfer me money for my birthday and I still haven't gotten it. I'm pretty sure she forgot since the transfer would be instant. I want to go shopping with that money. Grr.
Tweetdeck sucks. Move on.
Both my bosses are gone for the day. Yeah. I will be getting NOTHING ELSE done today.
I may or may not be slightly hungover. Damn $1 slices & draughts.
I love being able to access my FB and twitter in one place. I don't want to give tweetdeck up!
Im going to have exercise some serious will power to not put the box set bluray of the HP series on my credit card sometime this weekend. I know someone will buy it for me if I just wait till Christmas.
When I got back from vacation I somehow forgot to submit all of my time card. When my paycheck was posted yesterday I noticed that I'm short 3 days worth of pay.
I'm lucky that we got a bonus this pay period but I'm annoyed that my boss didn't bother to say anything when she approved the time card. She saw me there... obviously I came back from vacation.
ME TOO! Love it though. Love.
I'm drooling over pictures of Christian Ponder.
ETA: I just found this. I die:
Who is he? I like.
Christian Ponder. I
Him. He's FSU's old QB & now Minnesota's QB.
Oh my...I think I love him even more.
