La Dolce Vita?
Hello, hello. Today was a good day. I had minimal work to do which is a plus. I think I'm getting a big head at work. Actually I know I am. I've been there the 3rd longest and we have a bunch of new hires. It feels so great when I'm asked a question and I can answer them. The newbies are like my children. I just want to mentor them appropriately and raise them right. I think we have a few Brit-Brits in my group. I sure hope they get fired. Oh. Did I say that? I mean promoted to another department for a better earning opportunity. Yeah that's what I meant. Anyway. I talked to my roomy who is also my brother's partner. I have better insight into how he operates. I approach him with kid gloves. He shuts down and then becomes angry enough to throw things. Then I talk to my brother so that he can act as a go between and messenger on what the actual problem is. We have a group discussion where my brother mediates two introverts attempting to get whatever is bothering them off their chest. After 10 minutes of non-accusatory and non-confrontational probing my brothers partner relents and then I get some insight as to what is bothering him. We talk and process what we've said and then make jokes. It's weird but somehow it works. I just wish it could be more direct and less lengthy but whatever. I'm just rolling with the punches. Bottom line is that he knows that he owes me but as to when I'll get paid... I have no clue. So I'm going to do whatever I have to do make ends meet.
My dad is doing great. The doctors wanted to release him from the hospital today. I guess the hospital is short on cash and they need to make room for new patients. Where's there are patients, there's money! Good grief. He just had his hips replaced. That's the equivalent of moving into your new apartment and getting an eviction notice the next day. Oy. Damn doctors. I'm still working on the transportation thing. I will make a one tomorrow.
I'm also going to take steps to better my life. I'm going to sign up for that Oprah Million Viewer Challenge

(Can you say photoshop? Oprah couldn't even take a picture WITH Bob?)
It's time for a change. I was going to sign up for tonight but then I remembered that I had a packet mix for oatmeal cookies. I want to eat those first before I better myself in anyway. Hey I never did say that I was smart in this blog now did I? Anyway I'm going to do some things that are out of my comfort zone. I'm not ready to give up on school. I will call those bastards at the university and see what is taking so long for them to give me Financial Aid. Also my co-worker is scaling back on her hours so I will receive hers come January. I'm going to take 3 courses for school instead of 2. I think I'll be nucking futs and shoot for 4. We'll see. I'm just upping the ante right now. I'm going to join a group or two that's oriented with film. Women in Film and Television Atlanta http://www.wifta.org/. Which is a chapter of Women in Film and Television International http://www.wifti.org/index.cfm The other group that I'm thinking about joining is National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences-Southeast Chapter http://www.natassoutheast.tv/. They are in charge of the Emmy's. I wish that they had a Film Society down here. Basically all they have are groups for whores like me to go to a free movie screening from time to time. Okay I'm knackered. I'm going to go and ignore the filth that I need to clean and watch "Junebug." I'll also be fiddling on my phone and try to brainstorm new posts to ad to this blog. Some of my posts are utterly depressing! Let me go pop some Xanax and get happy. :-)
Kidding.
