Funny how the world works
So, I have my first temp gig tomorrow morning for Dart out in Mason, answering phones from 8-5.  Not a bad gig.  I'm kinda excited about it.

Today, I went to Schulers and started selling off my CD collection.  Good times there.  Mika has put me in a position where I need to make a move or get screwed, unfortunately.

Here's where it gets good tho :  I went to Claddagh to eat lunch, and Aengus came over to talk to me.  He asked me again if I was serious about leaving the Sales Manager position behind, and I said yes, as long as the money was so crappy.  I told him that if he and corporate wanted to keep me, they would have to offer me more money.  I could see the little wheels in his head turning as  I was talking to him.  Later this afternoon I got a text from him basically saying "what do you want"?  That was an awesome ego boost.

My bottom line was more money, gaurunteed hours, and two manager opening shifts on the floor, and to do the busser/host schedule.  I sent him my proposal and so I'm waiting to hear back on his thoughts.

This is the first time I've ever been in a position where a boss has wanted to fight to keep me, and, I don't often get the chance to toot my own horn, but, toot fucking toot!

So, there is a silver lining to every cloud.

Now, if I could only figure this living situation out . .. gaahhhhh..
