One hour into my “volunteered” 10 hour shift at the gym today. Although I’ve only been here for 45 minutes. I was late. I feel like hell. I killed the battery (which otherwise would be ok) on my cell. I’m guessing it died while I asleep. No alarm this morning. What’s sad is I have a clock radio. Plugged in and sitting right beside my pillow. I’ve had a suspicion that it no longer sounds the alarm. I’m going to confirm my suspicision tonight and possible invest a whole $6 at walmart tomorrow in a new clock radio. One whose alarm works. Thankfully the members at the gym were nice to me for being about 12 minutes late for opening the gym. I’m still going to have to deal with Lee – the MANAGER – but she won’t know until I tell her. At 4 p.m.
Ok 7 a.m. – Frank Hall, sweaty and owing $$, decided to scratch his back on the counter. Gross.
8:15 a.m. – Last hour flew by. Spilled egg white upstairs. Found the phone charger. Made tea. 8:07 a.m. – 4 minutes to win Madonna CD and possibly concert tickets was exactly when the internet went down. There is a contest every hour until 6 p.m., I’ll be listening if it kills me. Oh good 4 crazies just happened into the gym.
9:23 a.m. – Facebook let me back on and now chatting/message with cute boy I met on okcupid.com. I’m holding back from getting all flustered and such. It’s nice to say hello though. TV volume is cranked to drown out maniac member with rubber-ducky voice who just yelled out (about Rachel Ray) “she looks more like Oprah every day, doesn’t she, LAY-DEES??” ya no one heard her but me. Mission accomplished.
12:31 p.m. – ok have called VISA and my MBNA MCs. I’m in the hole people. A lot less than I was a year ago. But still in the hole. Have budgetted on Google Docs (cuz I can look at it everywhere and any where that way). I can afford my life as long as I stick to some kind of budget. All my paychecks from JP (ranging from $750 to $850 biweekly) have been listed as $400 because the rest goes straight back to my mom. I just don’t think during the week, this week especially I’ll have the time to go to the pool with Becky and Jenna unless I start work earlier on each day. Meaning waking up after working until 1:30 a.m., I’m working on this. I’m starving.
