Monday Ramblings...

Today was a good day =-). I am actually closing out the evening with very pleasant feelings about my today. It started out with mail! Yay mail! Although I was rather nervous to see a thin envelope from typo-job =-(. I called out to the job gods for it please not to be over yet, and then I opened it. It was a lovely form letter, which is never good....but in this case they were just letting me know I met "the minimum requirements" and was therefore being forwarded on to the hiring department. Yay minimum requirements! I'm not used to getting a letter telling me something like that.....but maybe that's because I usually don't pass that hurdle =-(.

My other piece of mail was ridiculously fabulous =-). My cousin sent me some terrific mail that really made my day. Her letter was a Dr. Seuss-like poem written just for me and I loved it =-)! It also had a pin that says "Party Ghoul" and some other things - including a collage with her trademark Monster and some booster words! Yay! Plus she gave me some money and told me I had to spend it on something fun - not anything like bills. Okay - if you insist! So I bought myself a "Bite Me" shirt, some Sesame Street undies (I really wanted Superman ones, but they didn't have the color I wanted), and then I used the rest to go see a movie at the cheap movie theater =-). Yay!

Before that fun little festival of goodness, I met my Pal for a round of Samples at Costco followed by a famed Costco Hotdog and Soda (his treat- woohoo!!). I followed that up by traipsing into Dollar Tree and buying myself two hats for little kid heads (I have hopes that they can be adjusted to fit my Shabbler-sized noggin), but....upon going to the craft store - I found a lovely purple pimp hat that was 70% off and totally goes with a Pimp Coat I got a few years back. Big Pimping!! After the movie (a romantic comedy that did not appeal to either of my male friends ;-p), I met up with my other friend for yummy goodness in the form of a Chocolate Malt and Nachos.

So all in all I had quite a lovely day - but maybe that was because I didn't work ;-p! They tried to call me in, but I told them I had plans....which, even if the plans were to go to a movie by myself, they were still plans =-). And - considering two of my three shifts as a server so far have had me getting off work 4 hours after I was scheduled to leave.....I knew I wouldn't make it to my movie. So I'm ending today quite happy =-).
