I've been in pain all day from working every single day this week, and pulling stints at other stores to make extra money and just a random search of my email popped up the most out of nowhere sidebar information. One of my favorite bands My Chemical Romance is finally splitting. Fucking seriously? Read it yourself here...
Anyway, that is not the kind of news I could want to find out of nowhere, just adds to my frustration of my bands either going on "hiatus" never to return (NSync) or going on hiatus to come back for one more album and then fuck off (MCR), or even hiatus and come back as 2 separate bands (Panic! At the Disco and The Young Veins -they only lasted for one iTunes only album). I HATE the word hiatus. It ruins everything.
Luckily it didn't fuck with Bon Jovi or Fall Out Boy (yet). I'm just having a shitty week to be honest with those of you viewing my page. By the way, side note, I have more views in Germany than America... You guys are awesome ^^. Back to my issues...
Nick the fucking weasel has been pissing me off more and more and this other girl, Stephanie, she's the most annoying tea cup chihuahua I have ever met. She barks at me for no damn reason even though she's been told by 2 people in management to knock it the fuck off, even actually put her pawas on me today and almost got the shit beat out of her if Mike, a scruffy greyhound, hadn't stepped in and told her to fuck off. Over pizza labels.
You heard right folks. Pizza. Labels.
The labels needed to go on the right pizza boxed so whoever boxed the food knew what boxes what item went in, and Mike had asked for one of us to do it. Her run is up and I have nothing to do, so which one of us should do it? Me. I go over there to start and she snaps at me about it not taking two people to put labels on a box and actually put her paws on me to move me out of the box/register area when I erupted about this little chihuahua bitch fucking touching me. I almost hit her and honestly if Mike hadn't come over when I raised my voice, I just might have opened my jaws and ripped her fucking head off her shoulders.
Anyway, I'm just tired, and sore... I'm going to visit Mary and go to bed... Much love to you all.

Mary is a good friend of mine, especially tonight when she helped out with my pain. I don't know what it is tonight, but every now and then a little random shoot of pain will erupt somewhere in my body. I think it might have something to do with the fact I've been sick for the past couple of days. I usually do get random shoots of pain when I'm feverish. Just part of being sick I guess : (.
Nojuan was the one who suggested we go and see Mary since she usually has what I need when I hurt.
I hate the weasel i work with by the way. I told Nojuan most of the story that happened with him tonight so I need a little to chill our from it, but what I will say is this. If I was the manager I would have snatched his hat off his head and tossed him out the door. Lazy good-for-nothing -puts-a-bad-name-to-weasels bastard. I'll give details tomorrow or later today, who knows lol.
I saw my views from Germany again! It makes me happy each time.

A little bit of glee for me.
So the awesome thing about the blog site I go through is that it lets me view where my blog is viewed. Aside from the obvious hits in the US apparently Germany is viewing my blog. Thank you Germany! :3 Makes me feel special in a weird little way.
But anyway, sadly tonight was a slow one at work. I thought that with it being St. Patrick's Day we would have been slammed, but honestly I spent most of my time in back doing dishes, and only doing 4 deliveries before I got told to go ahead and go. There were 7 of us there for half an hour with nothing do and slowly we got picked off one by one until it was my go. I brought home less than $20, which is the least amount I've brought home since I started. I brought home more than that on my first night there even.
I had more $1s than a junior stripper XD.
Also, another down side. I woke up feeling terrible. A headache to start and then as the day went on I started getting nauseous, and a little dizzy. Realized I had a fever and I took a small nap before I went in, while Nojuan when to get as lunch to eat together before I left. I only got down half of my sub when I had to go, but I still felt terrible.
Kind of glad I got to go home early, considering how I was feeling. I'm off tomorrow but what I'm going to do is wake up early enough to go through and do my apartment secret shop and work after. I know I'm off but all I have to do to make money is call the Sandy Springs store like my boss told me to and I can get some extra time in there since they're low on drivers. Apparently one of our workers is barely at our store since he's always at the other one. I was thinking maybe some days go in and pull a shift at that store before my shift at my base store. It would definitely be a good way to make some extra money until I can get in a second job with more stability.
I figure since I only work 3-5 hours a night, getting some daylight work in at another store would do me good. I need to call the local paper and ask about open routes so I can deliver both pizzas and newspapers. Wish me luck, I need it, that's for sure.
Well, Nojuan wants me to join him for a little time with The Happy Creation so I'm going to get off of here.
A special shout out to those viewing me in Germany! Thank you for your views! They make me happy!

I hate uniforms. I always have and I have a new reason
Been a stressful past couple of days while I try to figure everything out. I only recently got my job at Domino's so I haven't gotten a full first paycheck, only something to help out to rent. My car payment is due tomorrow, so is my insurance, so I need around $530 to avoid a lapse in insurance and keep my car. Rent is due today and to make it last a week I need $186.
I've saved what I can but yesterday I got hit with the news that my pants that I've been wearing since day one were unacceptable. Why? Because it took them a week to notice they have very fine dark grey pinstripes that no customer could possibly notice when I drop off their pizza and run back off into the dark since I work the night shift. So to meet company standards I had to go out and buy a new pair of pants.
I searched high and low through every thrift store in town, and they don't have anything my size in what I need. If they had my size and what I needed, it wasn't black, which is what they have to be. So I went to Dollar General, they just didn't have anything. I went to Ross, hoping to find something, but nothing. I tried Target, saw the prices and walked out, there's no Marshall's near me, so I caved and went to Wal*Mart. I tried every clearance rack they had, but nothing. So I ended up having to spend $20 on pants and luckily found a pair of shoes that were work appropriate for $10. I almost bust tail at work in my old shoes, which made it get brought to attention that I didn't have non-slip work shoes. I still don't, but I wasn't paying $40 for a damn pair of shoes when I could spend $10 on new shoes with better traction than my old ones.
Again, I hate uniforms. That's $30 I could have towards my problems, but instead had to get spent on stupid clothing and shoes.
Other than the uniforms issue, work at the new job has been going great. I get along with everyone but this one Weasel, and that's because he's a slacker from Hell. He just walks around doing nothing until his drive is up and we're supposed to be helping out in the store when our runs aren't up yet. Like the other day I was folding the pizza boxes since the stacks were super low and he says to me as he saunters on over, "I guess I can make myself useful." Yeah, I guess you could, you annoying little rodent. He acts like doing any kind of work is a big chore for him and it's irritating. He's almost as new as me and he just acts like he owns the place even though he's really insignificant.
Other than that, the rest of the team is awesome. I kind of have a thing for this one guy, he's a red-headed mutt, who is brave enough to wear a kilt to a work meeting. He's a sci-fi guy and he's got a sense of humor, I mentioned being a football fan and he didn't act as if the world was ending, even when I named my team. He's definitely attractive even, but I see a ring on his left hand... Damned taken men being appealing.
Anyway, I'm venting to my fave folf right now so I'm going to get off of here and talk with him some more. He's going to be moving in with Nojuan and I to try to help out, and get his folfy butt out of FL.

It was a short night at work tonight, and I only got jipped on one run. Of course I'm not always going to be lucky enough to only lose money on one run, but it was definitely nice getting tipped instead of jipped. My foot pads are killing me though from all the hustling I did tonight. I managed to get 8 runs in tonight in under 3 hours, which was a great record.
It's looking like I'm going to need to get a second job though, because I'm only working a bare part-time shift and I can't afford our weekly rent and my monthly car payment/insurance and cell phone, which I use the internet for mapquest so I don't get lost. I just need a find a place that's hiring nearby so I can still save on gas. Here's to hoping for that one though.
Came home and Nojuan was fast asleep, so this won't be long. We try to stay on the same sleep schedule so one isn't awake when the other is asleep, and trying to keep the TV on low, or noise in general low.
Wish me luck on finding a second job and best wishes to all of you.

So, now that we're back home, I can tell you a little bit more about me.
I've mainly lived in FL my whole life, up until 2011, which as I mentioned is when I came up here to GA to watch my friend get married. Back in FL I lived in Palm Beach County for 3 years on and off, but the rest of it was spent in Volusia County, which is best known as being the home of Daytona Beach. I'm not from Daytona itself, I'm from an area North of it called Ormond Beach.
I grew up there, through numerous tourist seasons come and gone, I made it through without a mishap during all of the events. Bike Week, Biketoberfest, Spring Break (when they still allowed it before it got banned), BCR (Black College Reunion for Bethune Cookman College), the list goes on a bit, but you get the gist of it all. If you're from the area then you know how much of a hassle it can be to get through those seasons.
Speaking of seasons... I would rather have hurricanes than these tornadoes.
I've bounced from job to job before I finally settled in at 7-11 for 4 and a half long, torturous years. You know, it wasn't even the work that was hard because I loved going in every night to bust my ass so hard I didn't notice the time flying by. It was the managers. I only had 3 good ones out of 9 managers, 3 district managers and 1 regional manager (who was the one that got me canned in the end). Of all the things to get fired for, going over my allowance by $1.31 is what does me in. It wasn't the stealing -only food never $$ like the retards go for- (cos I was just too damn good) or the texting on the job, or the personal calls at night, it was the damn payroll deduction which everyone got away with. Let me explain what payroll deduction is.
At 7-11 you get paid bi-weekly. From each of those 2 weeks you are given an allotment of $40 that you can use -OF YOUR OWN MONEY- to get drinks or food if you have no money between checks. It can only be $40 and $40 from the 2 weeks, not $30 and $50, even though it adds up to $80. One of those weeks I spent $1.31 OVER the $40 and I got fired a few days later. Ain't that about a bitch? The thing everyone gets away with, I do once on accident and I get fired? Thylacine hating bastards. It's okay, even the state agreed with me that it was bull, because I got unemployment for it from them for it! HA! Take that 7-11!!
Sorry, they insight a little bit of a rage with me when I think about how they screwed me over. I was out of a job for 6 months after that. That was in June of 2011, and in October, on the 30th, I came up here to GA with Nojuan (roommate) to watch his little brother/my friend get married. In November we got offered the chance to stay here with his family until we could get on our feet and here we are!
Well, I think I'm chatted enough for tonight. I need to get to bed so I can wake up in the AM and take a shower.

Hello!
First I would just like to say thank you for taking the time to read my journal. If you ever have any questions about anything posted here, be it clarification or just curiosity, please feel free to let me know and I'll gladly respond.
Second, I would like to properly introduce myself. My name is Lily and yes, I am a Thylacine, or Tasmanian Tiger if you need the regular title. There are very few of us out there, and I'm one of the ones bold enough to post in a public place. I'm 27, and I'll be 28 in July on the 27th. I live in Georgia, north of Atlanta, and I've only been here since October of 2011. Came up here to watch my friend get married and then I ended up staying here.
I'm originally from Florida, though I wouldn't go back if you paid me to, aside from getting to be around the friends I had there. I recently settled into my new job, working for Domino's Pizza as a delivery driver, and so far I love it!
Although my species has been hunted to damn near extinction, which causes those that remain of us to hide in the shadows, I'm a very social being. I love working on the team that I do, and being a part of the family in this store. The last time I had a job I was actually moving and being constantly on the go was back in June of 2011 when I worked for 7-Helleven as my co-workers and I called it. For the past year I was working in a Verizon Wireless call center, dealing with all kinds of hate, hell and discontent....On my ass. I BARELY moved, unless I got up and started pacing as far as the chord on my headset would let me, so of course I put on some weight, which I'm not pleased about.
My metabolism took a major blow during my period of inactivity. But all of that's over now since I'm constantly jogging from car to door, door to car, car to store, store to car and running around in the fast-paced store in general. You can imagine the pain I'm feeling in my legs since I'm using muscles I haven't used since 2011. Hopefully during this time I can also work on getting rid of the weight I gained at VZW.
Well, that's all for now. My room mate (a husky mix) and I have cabin fever and are going to go for a small jaunt.

Lily
