I'm a human wedgie.
Tuesday, 1 February 2005 00:55Another busy day at work...I actually sold my first two contracts since coming back, so I felt happy. I also just got my days-off request in time. However...something happened at work that made me a little annoyed. My manager won't approve any days off for March, because the first week he has a meeting, a week-long Wal-function. Then, in mid-March, he becomes a daddy, so he'll be gone for some time. This pissed me off, why? Because I had intended to go to Oklahoma to see Sarah in March...however, if he's not approving days off in March, this means I can't go. And I'm not going to have my hopes smashed without a fight, not after I already put the trip off once. I'll have to go to a higher-up, probably one of the co-managers, personnel, or store manager to do that, and hopefully I can get time off in March to see Sarah.
I miss her terribly...we haven't talked on the phone at all for nearly two weeks, and we don't spend too much time online talking, because usually I'll go to bed, or she doesn't come online. And I'll be damned if we start drifting apart from each other...I am not losing a friend like her. It's hard when your best friend is nearly 2,000 miles away. It's hard when nearly all your friends are at least 300 miles away, let alone 2,000. I'll probably write her a letter, too. Hard enough that my April's far away, as is nearly everyone else. I don't know if Sarah misses me as much as I miss her, but my strain is great. This is one of those times that I feel my heart being pulled, one of those lonely times where I long to be among friends.
So, there's that.
So far, I haven't received any payment for the books yet...I'm expecting them this week. In other news, got my 3 W-2s, so I'll be doing my own taxes shortly. And what I expect coming back to me might be equivalent to one paycheck, maybe more.
That's all from this neck of the woods...
Nighty night, all.
EDIT: Apparently, the trip to Oklahoma for March won't happen...Sarah also finds herself in a situation where an employee is also having a child in March, making it so that taking time off for her will also be impossible.
Now I'm depressed...
