Neglectful

I know I have been a horrible, horrible journal owner. I'm sorry KD, I love you, I really do. Yes I do. *scratches under KD's chin" Yes I do. Who's a good journal? You are, yes you are!

I apologize for my absense this summer, but I will make it up to you by writing more, now that I have the eeeeeenternet hooked up again. ^_^

The most recent news. I am so hot I would love to run through a snowbank naked. Yeah, I see your astonished faces and I am that frickin' warm. I am boiling!!! If I wasn't such a lazy girl I would get a fan and find a plug in, but I am a sloth, so lets leave it at that. Besides, it's too damn hot to move! ~_^

I have a cold. *flicks off virus* Yesterday I thought I was getting better, but then my mother said, "OMG Sher, you are burning up! Do you have a temp?"
I quickly said, "Nah, I'm fine. I'm getting better."
Mom: "We should take your temp." *goes to get thermometer*
Kush: "I'm not hot, my bedroom is warm, so it made me warm."
Mom: *shoves temp taker doodad in Kush's mouth*
*seems like minutes pass*
Mom: "Sher! Your temp is 102! Do you wanna see the doctor tomorrow"
Kush: O_O *blink, blink* "N. . . no. I'll be fine." *gets over shock*

Do I have my fever now? Mmm no, I don't think so. I checked my temp this morning and it was 98.1. Yes, I know that's low, but I usually run 97 point whatever, so I'm glad it went down.

I am finally a working girl and I'm doing it fulltime. Yaaaaaay!! And I do like it where I work. Admittedly I should be getting more money, but it is a good starting job and it is definitely giving me experience I could never have gotten in school. As much as I love the people the computers are piss poor and the software is poorer. I almost want to bring in my copy of Photoshop and say, "Please! Please let me use this instead! I beg of you!" However, Photoshop 7 would probably kill my old little Mac. When I started working at SPC I was excited to work with macs and was expecting OS X. What I got was OS 9. *le sigh* It's sad really when they buy refurbished computers from the schools and use them for their company. As a printing place you would think they would want newer equipment. Especially when we the compositors are basically putting the damn papers together. Then I see them wasting money on certain things that makes me shake my head and go "Wha' the hell?" There was a rumor that they were going to put up a new wall for the girls downstairs because we (the compositors) bothered them when we brought ads down. O_o I'm sorry, we don't have to be polite and say hello.

I don't want to give you all the wrong idea, it is a a great place to work. The two head managers of the place are absolutely wonderful guys and I could not have asked for better people to have hired me. They know every employee's name and they always say hello no matter what. Billy & Todd, other management teams could learn a lot from you two! All the compositors are quite the women! They are not girly girls and they all know how to have a good laugh. They enjoy the fact that they are a little off and make it widely known with pride in their voices. I fit right in with the nuts and I told Todd this when he asked if I thought everyone was nuts. They are a very tight knit group and think of each other as family. They laugh, get angry and even cry together. I feel honored to be a part of this family and I feel even more honored that they were so welcoming to me, "the baby" as I am warmly referred to.

There is more to tell about my summer, but it will have to wait. ^_^ *roasting*
