Got into a stupidfight with my mum. She decided to walk into my apartment with her friends while I wasn't here. I decided this was not okay. She apparently didn't agree. Fuck her very much. She posted on my wall with my brother's account, telling me to have a good life. Whatever.

She also left me a voicemail saying she hopes I have to walk to work in the cold and snow. I wish her a happy life. I'm buying a new cell phone next week. I'm excited. Unlimited text, talk, and web... and a new number. Which she will not be getting. Unfortunately that means my baby brother and sister can't have it either...

If I do well at work tomorrow, I'll actually make the bonus level for the first time ever. Pretty hyped. I'd be cool with just getting my fucking base rate finally... the way it works is weird. You gotta make your committed hours, 1 sale per hour, and 2 free newsletters a day just to get paid 7.75/hour. If you get over a 1.05 you get a bonus on top of the 7.75/hour. I'd like that. New phones are expensive...

But yeah. If ya'll want the new cell number just comment or tweet me? I don't get it until the 18th but I don't wanna miss anyone who wants it.

I know it's ~cheating~, but I've decided to rewrite Mischievous Souls into a novel version for this year's NaNo. If all goes to plan, I'll have well over 50k anyway, so... oh well? I figured out names for characters, since I won't write it with Changmin/Yunho/Siwon... I'm having a little trouble though. Changmin I changed to Maxwell Fuller, and Siwon to Salariel Kane. But Yunho's name just isn't sitting right with me... I need to figure out a good name for him. Considering the other Retrievers are named things like Moore, Kinzella, Kin, etc... Gerry just seems far too, I dunno, plain? It doesn't fit him.

Help.

...and the first thing I thought was "It's daddy's birthday!".

And then I remembered that you've been gone almost five years. And I didn't want to get out of bed. But I had to, because I've got a job now.

Did you know that, dad? That I'm working again? It's not the best job in the world, but I'm not bad at it, and my coworkers are nice. Some of them are bowlers, and every time they mention it, I remember how good a bowler you were...

I think you'd be proud of how hard I try at my job. My managers say I'm too nice... can you imagine that? I was such a brat before, but now I'm too nice?

Nicole's graduating this year, and I wish you could be here to see it. I think she's like me... she messes up a lot, and she's far from perfect, but she tries. And Becky's doing really well... she passed her boards and now she's a licensed dental hygienist! She'd have another reason to tell you off for smoking now.

I really think you're the only one who wouldn't laugh at my dream or discourage me from trying. I miss how encouraging you were. I miss how you used to pinch my cheeks like I was a little girl even when I was sixteen and a 'grown up'.

I miss you. And I wish you were here.

Happy 48th birthday, daddy.

I started a new job today, as some people might be aware. I'm working for a company called PBP; it doesn't pay all that well, in comparison to other things, but 7.75 an hour isn't bad when I was living off $880 a month from unemployment for how long.

This first week was training. I made calls out the ass to god only knows how many executives; I got hung up on more times than I can count, and ended up making 27 sales over the entire week. Which was better than they expected me to have done. It was over 1 sale an hour at least, and one man asked if I could call back Monday for an answer. He said he would ONLY talk to me. Nobody else. Which was awesome.

My new coworkers are fun; most, like before, are middle-aged women, and they're all really sweet. The training manager, a younger woman named Tawny, said that she thinks I have the potential to make a lot of money there. Hopefully, since I'm in a fucking hole like no other and I NEED to go to uni to work in Korea as an ESL teacher.

Considering finding a second job nearby. There's a diner open 24/7 nearby; I should walk over there and see about working a few hours a day there. I need to work 60 hours over 2 weeks at PBP, so 30 a week on average, which is 6 a day. They said I can work 35 hours a week if I can handle it, which would make me 8.00/hour... it might be better pay to work at the diner though? I dunno. We'll see. I could work there weekends...

Gonna cut this off before it gets too long; I'm on my phone and can't remember HTML tags for on Dreamwidth, so I might have to manually edit my LJ entry with cut tags. -____- I'll figure it out later. Duncurr, you'll all live, etc etc. Just wanted to ramble about my life. :3 Hope everyone's well.
It's been a rough few days. So, for the first time in a long time, I figured I'd actually use my journal, rather than letting it fester.
