The Weekend
It's 8:oo AM my time. I'm drinking Alka-Seltzer in an attempt to lessen the coughy throatiness this town has been passing around for the last three weeks. Everybody's got it.
Today is homecoming here at the University. Being ignorant of University doings, I'm not even really sure what that means despite the fact that I've now spent one third of my life living in a college town. What I do know is that it's raining outside and people are lining up crappily made floats down our street. Being a small town, with small town dreams and aspirations, the floats look high-school quality at best.
Soon, I'll walk through the rainy hub-bub to my regularly schedualed 10:oo shift at work. . . but the fun doesn't stop there. Seeing as it's homecoming, and the busiest business day of the year, I've smartly taken a double shift to allow a co-worker his birthday night off. Yeah, It'll be like a 14 hour day of work for me. I'll bust my ass home at a cool midnight.
Plop Plop Fizz Fizz,
What the hell was I thinking?

at least you have a job. I still have one more week of un-employement. I'm so frickin board and in debt because i keep borrowing money to drink away the hours.
