Ramblings of a Girl

a little bit of this, little bit of that…

The whole school thing March 19, 2007

Filed under: Everyday — Liz @ 9:20p

I have been really doing my research. I would like to go back to school this fall, but the only way would be part time. I am looking at a AS in Digital Photography. It would give me a degree, also giving me more knowledge in a field I am very interested in. My whole thing is that I would be starting from scratch. It has been almost 10 years since I have been in a classroom environment. The money thing kinda scares me too. I know there are so many options out there. I really don’t want to do a student loan, and I really don’t think I would qualify for Federal aid. I could always ask my mother in law to help out since she is a militant when it comes to school, but this is something that I want to do on my own. I have more cons then I do pro. It would give me a degree but it would not be associated with anything out there in the job market. What to do, what to do?

 

Chatty Bitches March 8, 2007

I work in an office. My job is great! It’s easy, no stress. Well except one part of my job does have some stress to it. A bunch of chatty bitches. These are women spend more time bitching about office politics then actually working. I keep telling my supervisor that if they spent half the time doing what they are suppose to, then we would meet our numbers everyday and blow the competition away. Apparently every little thing that happens in the office should be talked about for weeks on end, and then when we have our monthly meetings, nothing gets said. It is getting to the point now, I just want to stand up and bitch slap every single one of them. I would like to just come in do my job, get paid and go home, with out listening everyone bitching about how this one got do this and that one got to do that, or we can no longer do this. I should take all the lemons I bought for Mr. Fabulous and start using them. Chatty bitches make great target practice. :-)

 

I am ready to give up!! March 5, 2007

So I have been in my new 2 bedroom apartment for 2 weeks. The little one for the first week slept like a dream, going to bed every night at 8pm, and sleeping to 8am the next morning, no fussing, no crying, no screaming… nothing she just went down. This second week has been hell! Still falls asleep, but downstairs, she will sleep through picking her up, carrying her up the stairs, but the minute I lower her down in to the crib, you would think I was beating her the way she starts to scream. I leave her and close the door hoping she will just cry herself to sleep, but no avail. That child will scream and cry for 30 min without getting tired, I am sure she could go longer but that is my breaking point, 30 minutes of screaming is all I can tolerate. I am not sure what is wrong, the only way the child will sleep is in my bed. I know most of you must be thinking that is my problem, but the child has never slept in my bed. The only time she ever slept in the same bed as my and my husband was when she was nursing. When she started sleeping through the night, she was in her own bed and has never been in ours for nothing longer then a half hour. I am finally at my breaking point and made an doctor’s appointment for tomorrow. I am sure the doctor will tell me to just let her cry it out, but for how long, I can’t see it going on for hours. I have neighbors. One works for the local new station and needs to get up early, the other is a business women who sometimes does long business trips but “loves her sleep”. I am so frustrated!!!!

 

It’s finally HERE!! March 2, 2007

I finally got my damn iMac!!! After all the fighting I had to do with Apple and FedEx I am glad that it got here in one piece. I do have to say it is pretty. The screen resolution is amazing, it just a step down from HD, which I can’t really complain about, and my husband is so happy that he has a new toy to play with. It will keep him out of my hair for at least a little while. I do have to say if you have an extra $1900 and you want to invest in to something that is worth while, a iMac is it. Just don’t get the free shipping, cause that means it comes FedEx home delivery, and they are independent contractors who don’t give a shit about your packages and just leaves them where ever they want. Hey I would just say fuck FedEx they suck… I will never have anything shipped from them again. My husband waited 12 hours on a Saturday for a FedEx Home Delivery person who never showed up. The excuse there was no address on the package. BULLSHIT! how did even get in the shipping system without an address, how did even get to my city with an address. So I had to go and pick it up on a Tuesday cause the pieces of shit are closed on Monday, and guess what the address was all over the box. Douche BAGS!!!! But I am happy with the product it’s self just not how it got here. We have Vista installed on this, and I find myself using the OS X side of things more and more.
