Damn, I just did not want to write at all. I have avoided it like the plague since
Wednesday. The two jobs were just
bat-shit insane and I am utterly wrung out.
And then all the rain and storms blew in from Hurricane Patricia.
Supposedly Hurricane Patricia is the largest ever
recorded. I certainly am glad I am
nowhere near her path of destruction -- I am sure it is going to be terrible. But I am grateful for the rain. It is very soothing to my very exhausted
spirit.
Starbucks boss Shands text me to remind me about our
wonderful "mandatory" store holiday meeting this Wednesday. I laughed out loud before deleting it. Shands already knows I won't be at the
meeting. I figure right now, I would do
best to fly under the radar with that job.
There's no sense in stirring the pot.
I figure I am so damn close to the breaking point, and if I am pushed
once more, I am gone.
I submitted my schedule advisory form earlier today for Grad
School. Hopefully they will be quick at
approving it. I will be taking the first
two of three required courses for the Master's program. After that, I get to choose what classes I
feel will be best for me. I am so ready
to get this damn show on the road. I
just hope this enthusiasm sustains me throughout this next semester. I am sure it's going to utterly thrash me,
but hopefully in a good way!
I am still plugging away at the genealogy stuff. It's become soothing to check on the
"Smart Matches" -- matches between individuals within my family tree
and the same individual (most of the time) in other family trees. I can then fill in the blanks that I may have
for those individuals, plus find other relatives of that individual. I am just loving it. Currently my oldest documented relative was
born in 1360! It is staggering to realize
I can trace back through a very twisted family tree to Rose, who was born 621
years BEFORE me! AWESOME!
