Little Things

I got a pair of shoes today-- brown and light aqua blue skate shoes on sale at Payless for only $7!!! Two of my favorite things, new shoes (am I the only person who absolutely loves the smell of new shoes?) and great prices! yay!

I convinced Erik to look for another job. I had to indirectly threaten to kick him out to get him to do it, but he is finally looking for one. I really hope he keeps it up until someone actually hires him. The other day we went to McDonald's and I asked for an application for him, and he flat out refused to apply at fast food. That really pissed me off. I work at Taco Bell, and I am far more qualified than he is. I can be a receptionist, secretary, direct care staff, management, retail, cashier/ teller, and probably more than that. He has very few skills, namely direct care and cashier, and it really irritates me that he thinks he can be choosy. I asked him if he thought he was better than me, and he said no, he was just better than them. So I told him he was not better than anyone, and he'd better get off his high horse, because right now I could care less whether he likes his job. Right now anything that offers a steady paycheck is the goal. Hopefully he can find a job other than fast food, but if no one hires him, he better suck it up and take whatever he can get. I know that's gonna be a fight if it comes down to it, but I pray it doesn't come to that. I may even have to get a second job, and that is incredibly hard for me, considering that I get so tired working a full shift right now. If I had to work more than 8 hours, I don't know if I could pull it off. I hope things get better. I can't stand the constant fear of "one more thing".
