Things

Many things have been going on in the last couple of weeks. Good things and hard things...

I have struggled with some things on the inside working to mask the pain and frustration I am feeling. On top of that the world seems to be hurtling at me like a 16 lb. bowling ball.

Last week, as I was struggling to get a GINORMOUS story done and in, my editor informes me that they are cutting my hours at work. Something about labor laws and me working too many hours without benefits. I look at it one way, saying they could have let me go. At least I still have a job, but it is hard for me to hang out on days I don't have to work.

I ended up working at the end of the week last week anyway trying to get my story done and following up on other things. This week has given me some time to edit photos and get my laptop cleaned off (I was down to 6 MB of space today...). Tomorrow will be my first day at work in a week... it will be interesting to get back in to that mode.

Thankfully, I have had great people around me to help me forget about the small things that aren't going right at the moment.

Trevor came with me as I worked elections on Tuesday. It was very kind of him, considering he had family of his own who would be awaiting results. The night was longer than planned because there was a missing card and another corrupt card. We left the building around 2 a.m. Both of us were hashed...

Today was another leasure day. I helped his family clean out the garage and we went car shopping with his sister. I also plugged in to his network and picked up another 800+ songs. feliz...
