In June I’m going to be taking a week long (hopefully!) vacation to Texas. I’m going to visit my grandparents and favorite cousin, as well as attend the AMD and Microsoft Tech Tour with a friend, Rem. It’s going to be fantastic, that’s for sure. Need to get a vacation, and I definitely needed to see my family.

I’m planning on saving about $50-75 from each paycheck, up until when I leave, so I can have money for gas, splurging and the desktop package that AMD is offering up for sale (for alot cheaper then getting each piece seperately!).
I also decided to start saving for my own macbook pro (2.0ghz.) I won’t start saving until after I come back from the vacation. I’ll save $100-150 from every paycheck. I figured it’ll take me at least 25 payperiods to get it, along with the 3 year PSP from work. I’m actually kind of excited, because I think I can stick with it, pending I don’t come across any kind of financial issues. This is also because I plan on acquring a second job with Insight.

Also I decided to save, since I saw that I’ve spent $1,100 at Best Buy since October, and I’ve SAVED $700, so imagine if I didn’t have a discount. Eeps!

LOL @ changing my address for work about four times.

LOL @ the fact I have to move again in two months.

I love being single. Srsssly. God I hate this website. I don’t do anything with it.

The past month has been rediculous. I was going to move into an apartment with a friend of mine, but he ended up being completely nuts about a certain issue, so he didn’t go with it (with me.) SO I lost $200 from the deposit, which I already e-mailed him to make him pay me back.

I didn’t want to move back in with Ashley and her husband and burden them… So I’m not currently back at my old apt. It’s different/weird being back here, but I don’t mind it. I’m closer to work, so I’m not going through a tank of gas a week (you figure $25/week). Which is definitely fine by me.

Other then that, I’ve been trying to get re-settled here. Bought a desk last night at Target, and it took me a couple of hours to assemble it. I got bored, and walked away and then I ended up getting it finished around midnight.

This entry has taken too long to write; I’ll try to keep this site updated. I kind of miss it. I do know that I’m going to be working on holdfire.net, getting up a new design and transferring it to a new server, so I can up the plans (prices) and offer reseller packages. Tiiight.

I definitely forgot about this website, but apparently not someone that I care alot about. Which is why I’m really glad I never closed down this website when I had wanted to a couple of months ago. Sometimes it really does count writing things down in public where people can read them, and understand how the other feels.

Aside from that vague little paragraph, things are definitely looking up from my last post. Work definitely got alot better since then. I started to get noticed alot more for my efforts, and I get praise all the time for it. Not only that but apparently the senior recently “stepped down” so I have a shot at his position, but I’m not sure if I’m mentally ready for it. I think I am, I just lack the confidence.

Also in the job prospect is Charter. I got a call back from them a week ago, but I haven’t been able to get back to him because I got sick on Thursday and I’ve been dead since then. Hopefully it won’t look too bad, I’m just going to mention to him that I got the flu so hopefully I can still have a chance with them. If not, I won’t be too perturbed. I was planning on going part time with them to see if I liked it or not. That and I wanted to stay full time with Best Buy.

I also move into my new apartment on Saturday. I’m most definitely looking forward to it because it’s been three months since I’ve had my own place. Since January I’ve been in Ashley’s hair, but in and out during February/March since I crashed at a friend’s house during those months. I really owe her alot, and I plan on giving her, scott and audrey something nice for their new house as well as money I owe them for some bills I promised to help out with during my stay there.

So right now almost everything is looking up with the exception of one more aspect. My love life. I’m not really sure on the stance of it right now, but I’m pretty sure that this past weekend will make or break it. I really hope it made it, because I’ll be extremely happy. I know in my heart that he is most definitely my soulmate, my true love… People make mistakes all the time, so why shouldn’t I forgive him and learn to move on from it? I guess I’m just scared of getting hurt again if things do go like I hope for them to go.

If things go as he and I had talked about, I really do think we’ll get together and make it happen this time. I’ve never felt like this about anyone, so I’m definitely not going to fuck it up, or let him fuck it up again.

Work is questionable right now. I’m tired of feeling like my managers are trying to get rid of me, but how can I not feel like that when it’s partially true? I’m not a bad employee at all–it’s been the lies that have been coming out of my Senior’s mouth that is tarnishing my image.

Because I want to make sure I have a job, I started to apply to a couple of places. One of them being a cable tv and internet provider. It’ll be a full time Tech Support position that starts at $11.25/hour with benefits. A co-worker in my dept. also applied there so we’re both hoping to get the job.

Other then that, I’ve just been working. My car has been in the shop for almost three weeks now so I really haven’t been able to do too much lately and it’s frustrating. Hopefully my car is ready tomorrow, even though I won’t be able to get it (I work until after the place closes) so I’m off Tues/Weds so I’m shooting to have it by Tuesday!!

I’m horribly obsessed with wanting to own an Apple. I have awful credit so I would never get approved for financing on a laptop. I’ve resorted to signing up for one of those “do an offer, refer friends to do an offer, and get this for free!” deals. I know I may never get it doing those offers, but it can’t hurt to try out. I might even offer free domain/hosting or paypal some money to those who sign up under me.
So, if you’re interested, feel free to sign up, complete an offer, and e-mail me at riane@atourworst.org and I’ll either set up domain/hosting, or paypal you $15 for signing up.
Worse case scenerio: I wait until the summer and beg my parents to let me use their credit, and I’ll pay off the laptop on my own. I doubt that’d happen.

I received my schedule from work for next week. Shockingly I am actually scheduled OFF for V-Day. I was expecting to work close that night for some reason, but who knows, maybe they really don’t hate me that much. Though I did get my final write up today. That’s two write ups in one week, after almost six months of not getting one. I’m slightly pissed about it, but there’s nothing I could’ve done. My car is in the shop, and I depend on someone else for a ride. They should at least have some consideration for me, but.. that’s life.

Other then work I haven’t really been up to much lately. I’ve been trying to get Kelly to take care of her application for the apartment, but she’s been putting it off. I was under the impression she at least brought in an application and just needed to pay the fee, but according to the complex she hasn’t done so. I was expecting to go in on Saturday, pay the deposit and have an apartment to move into next week. Who knows if that’s going to be happening anymore. I’m about to say fuck it and move into a place by myself. Of course if I do that I’ll have to look into a second job. But I have found some really nice efficiency apartments downtown (Louisville).

Once I get moved in I really need to sit down and figure out what kind of money I still owe my credit card comanies (First Financial Bank, and Chase). I really want to give them some kind of payment so my credit doesn’t get that bad, but it’s close to it right now. I’m sure it’s already too late :

I need to marry a rich man.

When I removed the old wordpress, I also forgot to save the pages. Since I didn’t do that I have to re-do all of the pages as well, but maybe this is a good thing. However, I did manage to get the “about” page finished.

Not only that but things will be slightly more organized then it was on the previous site. I changed around the permalinks, added better plug-ins, and I am also making sure the site remains as slim as possible.

Pages left to add:

• Domain
• Links
• Hosting
• Contact

Awesome new plug-ins:

• Comment Quote
• Recent Comments Posted
• Music/Mood/TV (website)

On another note, the auto-bio that is currently up is quite possibly the worst thing I have ever written. I’m going to do it again tomorrow when I don’t feel as if though my head is going to explode.

I decided to start fresh, and archive the backup of the previous version of wp. I just couldn’t find a solution to the mysql error I was receiving, so I took the easy way out and decided to restart the site. I’m also going to go through all folders and delete anything unnecessary and do a hostee clean up to. Currently I have four hostees, and I know for sure that I am keeping Christina. I just don’t know if I want to continue hosting the other three people that make no effort to contact me, nor do they seem to really update all that much (at least two of them, from what I can remember.) Off to install some plug-ins and get up a temporary theme set up!
