*Insert Good Title Here.*

Ok, first thing's first. ...

I'm going to PRN status for the Residence. R isn't happy about this, considering he recommended me to his boss. His boss, however, is fine with the way things are going. She understands (or so she says) that even though they will have full time hours for me in a couple of weeks, I now have a job with benefits and that takes priority over her job, which doesn't have the benefits.

I have mixed feelings about going to PRN status. On one hand, I can control whether I go in to work or not. If I can't work, I can't work. End of story. On the other hand, I don't want to feel like I'm 'stuck' with a second job. I have a major sense of responsibility and knowing myself I'll have a problem telling them 'no'... especially if they say the 'bad' word. That one little word that I can't refuse to save my soul.

No, I'm not sharing it here.

Anyway, my date went well. Really well. Really really well. He seems to really like me, which is kinda nice, but then most of the guys I know have seemed to really like me. Then a few months later they stop calling.

I told this guy if he stops calling one day I was gonna hurt his body. He says he won't, so we'll see.

What I don't understand is most men like me when they meet me, but it's like that wears off. As if my personality isn't quite enough to keep someone around. Whatever it is, I hope it doesn't happen with this guy.... I'd like some good luck when it comes to men for a change, ya' know?

Speaking of luck and men....

It looks like my ex is going to end up going to prison. The money he was trying to borrow from a chick in California isn't going to be given to him. The chick's husband (supposedly) IM'ed my ex and told him that he's not sending him the money, and that he's telling his wife that he did send the money. It's complicated, confusing, and I'm irritated that I was stuck in the middle of it.

And of course my ex is freaking out. I can't blame him. I understand his viewpoint, and I understand his reasons for not wanting to go to jail. Who in their right mind would?! But by the same token, he's a grown man. He made mistakes in his past, and I don't think he should keep running from them. I think he should stand up and take his consequences.

But that's just my opinion.

Anyway, tomorrow I work my last 6 hour shift in the kitchen at the Residence. Then Wednesday I work my first 8 hour shift at Wal-Mart. Tomorrow it's noon to 1830 and Wednesday it's noon to 2030. I'm a tired girlie right now, but I'm really looking forward to having a set schedule with Wal-Mart.

I've needed stability in my life for a long time, and now that I'm finding it, and happiness, I don't want to lose it.
