Can the money start rolling in? Please?

I don't know what the hell I was thinking when I thought having a part time job would be good for me. Uh..no. Especially when moving to a new apartment and such. I haven't had time to do any real art work at all. Plus my girlfriend was in town for two weeks and that kind of distracted me from getting other things done. I'm not complaining about the distraction....just need to start pulling money out of my ass to be able to pay rent and the bills for next month. Plus...getting into a car accident sure as hell didn't help the financial situation when I had a $500 deductible to pay. Oh fun. I wasn't hurt, the car is better, and I'm hoping not to get sued by the person I hit. They could try but I have nothing that they'd get from me. What would that be...uh...trying to squeeze blood from a rock? Ya...right. I did hardly any damage to her car. But she's claiming soft tissue damage. Great. My car was in the shop for 2 weeks. That sucked. I wish I had a photo. Damn. I wonder if my insurance has one.

Anyone know of any good paying jobs that I could try and get? I actually applied at Walmart last night. woo. Unenthuastic woo but hey it would be money. I should be getting a call back from a lady about doing photography part time for shows on the strip. They provide training and equipment. Woo! I'd prefer that over Walmart for sure. I think I'm going to call the owner of the company I used to work for and see if she'll hire me back. We'll see.

I'm supposed to have another part time job starting on the 15th but that's not for over two weeks and bills are due next week along with rent. I'd really prefer not to get evicted for not being able to pay first months rent. That would suck. Horribly.

Anyway...I should sleep so I can work at my part time job tomorrow and get a check to be able to pay rent. woo!

It's official!!

It is actually my last of day of work at the O&P shop I've worked at for 13 months. They aren't extending my time anymore and not even giving me a part time offer. I personally think they're making a mistake since two of the guys that work there don't know how my boss likes things done when he has braces made and he's fuckin' picky. Oh yes. Mwahaha. I'm laughing inside though. They're bummed I'm leaving...two months after my two week notice. I told them I'd come in and help out maybe if they really need it. I do have a part time job already lined up and I'll be working there only 2 days a week but hey...it's something. I have an interview that will be set up in two weeks, after the manager gets back from vacation, at another place where I'd be working full time if I'm hired.

It's kinda exciting leaving a job...bumming at the same time because it means...no income...but exciting at the same time. I'll have lots of time to get a whole lot done. It means I won't have to leave work early to go deal with social security and with medical insurance, which I have none of at the moment and there are doctor's appointments I need to get to.

So...yes. I actually went to the gym this morning for an hour and a half as well. I haven't been regularly for about 3 months or so now. I'll be laying in bed all day tomorrow not able to move. I wish. Too much to do.

Sad thing is...my boss is bringing in donuts this morning. If I have one...it kinda cancels out my whole workout. Just one. Tomorrow I start a real good diet and stick to it. Yes.

Anyhow....last day of work starts in 12 minutes. Toodley!
