Many Things

It is amazing how fast time flies when so many things are going on. And the thought of the holidays only speeds things up. And my thoughts has been so consumed in my work and school assignments. But school is starting to wind down, so it looks like I'll be writing more!

The work environment seems to be getting worse and worse. Every night I come home from work, I always seem to be complaining about something. And yes, every night something new has come up to make my blood churn. But something has brought light on the situation, something I really didn't expect.

Rumors have circulated that I have made employeeo of the month! I know that sounds so cheesy, but it means alot for some reason. I guess it shows that my work there is paying off, and people are noticing it. I have never expected recognition from my coworkers, because it really only matters that I do my job, and I know at the end of the day that I did it well. But when people come up to me, like they did last night and say, "Congrats, we are proud," it really means alot. So I'm hoping that this recent turn of events helps my attitude towards the sour environment there.

I'm wondering if you enjoyed Black Friday. Did you even go? I was disappointed to know that alot of people just slept in. For me, I was in the heat of battle getting any sales that I could get my hands on. At Walmart, there were items that were only supposed to be released at midnight. But there were so many people, that people were tearing off the plastic that was concealing the cheap DVDs and Wii games.

I took a moment and wondered if I wanted to play fair or dirty. If I played fair, I would get nothing good, and if I played dirty, I would get almost all I wanted. I played dirty, and yes, I got all I wanted. I fought for the cheap TV DVD sets, movies and got them all. I was also one of the crazy ones and waited five hours to get a Xbox 360. I probably will never do that again, but it was certainly worth it!

One of the prized that I got during that night was the first 2 seasons of Smallville. For those who are a fan of Birds of Prey, I was one that resented Smallville for it's success while BOP was on the chopping block. But I started watching it, and it was instantly my new drug. I went through the first season earlier this week, and now I'm halfway through the second season. And as a christmas present to myself, I ordered the other 6 seasons really cheap! I know, I'm addicted.

So as you can tell, alot has happened since my last real post. There is just so much that I wanted to write, that I couldn't fit it all in. But hopefully soon I will be able to give you more posts. So stay tuned!!
