Access Granted
And the training shall start
March 31, 2008
Tomorrow is my lucky day. To train my replacement that is. I have to show her pretty much everything.
I emptied out my cubicle today. Tomorrow morning before She gets there and takes over my cubicle, I have to restore my computer and everything so that it will be neat for her to start. Wednesday I am hoping to be able to start doing the data entry for Laura. I like doing it. I get to listen to my Ipod and just input random stuff all day long. Then once I do that, I will be able to work in the warehouse. I might take turns working in the warehouse and doing Laura’s stuff to kind of break it up.
I hope the Pierce College job comes through. Mostly, they really better just interview me. I’ve been qualified for other positions and they didn’t even interview me. I wrote a killer cover letter for this job, so I deserve an interview. Even though they’ll probably hire who I think they’ll probably hire. It’d be nice though, working 1 mile away from home, being able to lunch with my friends again, and sometimes Andrew. C’mon! How nice will it be spending like $40/mo on gas when now I spend probably $130?
Recently our cat has been howling at the sides of our bed for NO GOOD REASON! He wakes us up at all hours of the night howling or jumping on our pillows. It’s really got to stop – I’ve decided.
My friend Sarah is opening a baby boutique. Once it’s officially open I’ll link to it here.
&& Because I know you all love me so much and want me to succeed in my lifetime goal of owning my own candle company, I have added a “Donation” button to the bottom of my blog that I will put toward my company and name you a contributor!
I wish sunny meant warm.

But unfortunately, in this great state of Washington, that is rarely the case. Especially this year, since it’s been snowing. I hope this means we’ll have a great summer, with a beautiful July 4th Weekend!
We went shopping at Old Navy yesterday and I got som really cute clothes. I am thinking about wearing one of my outfits tomorrow to work. I am not really sure yet. Depends on the weather. I am not going to wear nice pants that I have to wear heels for on a day that it rains. I think it makes sense!
Andrew and I just finished watching Georgia Rule. All I can honestly say is WOW! I did not know what it was about, but wanted to see it because it had Lindsay Lohan in it. It is interesting, to say the least.
I am looking at different options for trips for our honeymoon later this year (not directly after the wedding). I am going to go and look at different trip options.
Probably when your boss tells you that while hiring for a different position in the office that has nothing to do with you, she’s found someone to take your job. I knew that something was not right for awhile now, and everyone kept telling me that I was being paranoid, and that I should not worry about it. Nope, sorry, I was right. So now, I have to not only look for a new job (duh), I don’t know how long RSM is going to be able to keep me on. I doubt I’ll be getting a raise, I mean honestly I believe I deserve it after all of the ‘undefined tasks’ that I have mastered, and for you not really letting me learn what to do in the role of your Executive Assistant, you just made me manage Customer Service which is really a lot of work.
But, she did give me the option to take over Customer Service, since I do have seniority, but Cara seems to like her job, and I would not want my life and hers to be altered. Plus, I do not want a job where I have to talk to idiots all day. Our customers are nice, don’t get me wrong, but there are some that just, should not be ordering things online because they suck at it.
I was told that our Purchaser does need a lot of data entry stuff done, and I could do that for as long as it lasts, once the new girl starts (she still has to be officially offered the position and accept it), then when that is done I can work in the warehouse doing miscellaneous things until they can’t pay me anymore or until I get a new job – which will hopefully be the Pierce College job.
I know I shouldn’t be so worried, but that’s what I do. I mean it is 3:30 AM and I am awake and trying to figure out what the hell I am going to do. Barely over 3 months until the wedding, and hey, let’s see how much we can make Jacklyn panic. I know I am complaining a lot, and it is very great of them to allow me to work in the warehouse for a while, (plus it’s really a work out) but really, guys, this really effing sucks.
And the job hunt begins.

I have a lot to say, my brain is just too exhausted.
The Ladies Room with Brooke & Monti
March 26, 2008
I love listening to Brooke and Monti in the morning. Lately though, it’s been getting me think a lot about my life and where it is headed. Today they were talking about how men who marry women who are equally as attractive or more attrative than they are tend to treat their wives better; thus making the relationship better. I can totally see this. I did date some foxy men in my days but they never cared about me, they just cared about what was ‘underneath it all’. It wasn’t until I met Andrew and started hanging out with him that I realized there is more to life than dating someone for looks… Why not go for the full package – some one who is good to look at and will treat me right.
They talked yesterday about how Monti’s mom was trying to get the 9 year old to call Monti and her twin and convince them to take him for the whole summer. I was so angry at this. You don’t get to pawn you kid off on other people for months on end so that you can have a vacation. Sorry to say but you should have thought about that before you decided to have another kid. I dunno it just made me so mad! And poor Monti was in tears on the radio because everyone was telling her to just take the kid, to not punish him, he’s only 9 and I was like NO YOU’RE WRONG! You can’t do that because that would be rewarding her moms awful behavior. Andrew’s mom used to do Foster Care and they wanted to adopt this boy whose grandparents have him call around his birthday or holidays almost as a way to get something out of them and it’s disgusting. The main reason I know that that was happening is because I took over his mom’s spot on the family plan and they kept calling my number even when I kept telling them it was no longer her number. OMG frustrating!
It’s dumping snow and I absolutely love it!
Pierce College – Please Hire Me!
March 24, 2008
I have written my cover letter for the position at Pierce College that I want, I will turn in my packet tomorrow. I hope they hire me! I would love this position! Wish me luck!
Probably not… and be glad! But mine does and it is prehaps the most annoying thing in the world… I have not been sleeping well due to stress anyway, but now that he’s discovered how comfortable my pillow is, there’s no keeping him off of it at night. He wakes me up by either breathing on my head, chewing my hair, or having a nightmare and digging his claws into my scalp. None of these are great things to wake up to.
When he’s awake, he goes 100 MPH running around and jumping on things and howling and cats he thinks are outside our front door. When I brought him in he was normal, now he’s just a crazy monster. And we have only given him catnip like twice. Don’t even get me started on how that turns out.
OMG the Ice Cream Van is seriously driving around outside! It’s still March! There was ice out side this morning GO HOME! LOL!!!!
I love Lego Star Wars, but the movies pretty much bore/annoy the hell out of me. Andrew has been making me watch them. I successfully slept through half the first one, and 90% of the second one, and I’ve just ignored the third one which is on now.
Not the one I am anxious to receive, it’s someone we already knew was coming, but it’s good people are responding so early!
Happy 100!
March 23, 2008
This is my 100th Post on my blog! I am happy that I have stuck with this as well as I have
. Thanks to my 10 registered users who make me feel like someone is genuinely interested in my blog
We have received back two official RSVP’s for the wedding. One from my friend Chelsea and her husband and one from Andrew’s mom’s ex-husband.
Anyway, I am sorry, but I do not have more exciting material for my 100Th blog entry. Though earlier I did post a semi-juicy prive post that only special people have privileges to read!
