    This life I lead really is a rollercoaster

    Sunday, October 10, 2010
    One minute, our house plans are dashed. Then their on, off, on, off. Car accident, Jasper's sickness, car repairs, you name it, it happens to us ten fold at the same time. I spent a few nights this week weepy and sad, knowing that we couldn't afford to move to Oakville for me to start school in January because of the above mentioned incidents. They had drained all our savings, no first and last rents money, no honeymoon, no nothing.

    We've cancelled our honeymoon, knowing full well we cannot afford to go on it anymore. These things, I believe they call life experiences, are happening to us all at the same time. Now sitting with our finances in ruins, $1000 car deductible, $1400 cat emergency vet hospitalization, and $1100 in car repairs/winter tires, we're broke. Hell, who am I kidding, the car repairs haven't even been paid for yet, its the other $2400 bucks that left us in ruins, although the car repairs would have dented our savings, our honeymoon could have at least happened.

    So I left myself at the beginning of the week, sad and depressed. No longer was I going back to school, moving to Oakville or going on my honeymoon to Florida with my husband. I wasn't sure what I should be thankful for today. I wasn't completely sure. Thankful I was still alive and married to my hubby? As it stands, its all I've got.

    But today things changed. We wanted to speak with Adams parents, let them know whats up, and what, uh, wasn't up anymore...and his mom surprised us.  She suggested they buy us a condo, and we still move to Oakville, and I still go back to school... it was quite a surprising moment, not going to lie, and of course we cancelled our honeymoon through her, as she was the one that set it up through our timeshare company as it was.

    So again, I sit in the roller car, making my way up to the peak of this coaster, well, what I think is the peak, waiting for my stomach to gush and lodge between my lungs and breastplate, knowing I shouldn't get overexcited about this, as it will most likely come tumbling down, c'est la vie n'est pas? Well regardless of that, I can't help but feel jovial and certain that this CAN work now. It can. I'm hopeful, and kind of bloated.

    Job, say what?

    Thursday, March 25, 2010
    So I've been on the hunt for a job, *cough* well ok. I lie. I haven't. Seriously. I've checked workopolis and jobbank every day twice a day, but I haven't once sumitted a resume, as there hasn't been any relevant jobs in my profession....but some how... I have three interviews lined up (well two, because I went to my second today). Yeah, I'm just that good. lol.

    Actually it seems that one company found me on workopolis (they are a admin temp agency) and have a 13 month contract available, that they are interested in me applying for, so I did. Wait, I guess I did apply then right? or does that count? She called me and asked if  I was interested, I said yes, and she said "Ok! I will put your name in to apply!" and boom. done.

    Secondly, back in January when I was still working with Lynn I was looking for jobs on the d.l, and randomly decided to apply to Miller Thompson just for shits and giggles.  There were no job openings, but figured they keep my resume for three months, s'all good home fry.  Turns out the day before I left the last job (you know the one that fired my ass because I just didnt know how to bend the truth, change my morals or stck my thumb up my ass and rotate every time they asked me to), they wanted me to come in for an interview the following monday. BOO YA BITCHUZ.  So, I went to the second interview today for MT, so they must of liked me fro mthe first one, through a migraine, a stuffy nose, and my body aching like a mo-fo. (still really sick here kiddies).  Did I also mention that I take a medication for my migraines that makes my muscles seize up? yeah. lol. Try driving 45 minutes when it hurts to blink.  I'm a machine. I've decided.   I liked the little lawyer that interviewed me.  He was short, and totally cool. I could work for him, I decided.  His ego wasn't as large as the room we were in, although he deserves to have one like that, Miller Tompson is the BOMB DIGGITY. They have meeting rooms NAMED AFTER ALL THE MAJOR CITIES IN CANADA. swear, I felt like I forgot my armani coat in my ghetto vehicle, lol. Except I have a nice car, so I fit in  that aspect, ok enough babbling.

    Thirdly, I get a call from Fusion Homes today who is looking for an exect assistant to their VP'z, and I totally applied there, like two months ago I'm sure, because I don't even have on record WHEN I applied to that shit, but I remember doing it... but whatever, they contacted me, and now I go for an interview on Tuesday. 

    I find that although the job boards are not reflecting positions in my field, I feel that I am quite in demand.  It also helps that I really don't give two flying shits if I get a job? heh. 

    Although I might admit that I would like to get the fusion homes job as I am totally looking at tons of jobs in the KW area, and not in Guelph, which is where the FH one is.  I love Guelph, and I totally hate driving long distances (all the jobs I've applied for and stuff are in KW and thats a good 35min drive on the 401ish 7/8ish highways after dropping Adam off, even longer if I have to take only hwy 7 victoria to KW. Fucking traffic is a NIGHTMARE dood.) But anywho, Adam and I like Guelph, as it's grown on us.

    Although I will admit that I would drive from Breslau to Guelph up hwy 7 if I could have one of those sweet homes there.  WHICH reminds me, they called me today to tell me that the new homes we were listed for are up and ready to be released but they have released them to everyone on their waiting list first because they want to see if they can sell them without releasing them at all! Although we were approved for a mtg a month ago, something tells me we aren't anymore. lol.  You know, me not having a job and all.  Not that I care? but.. mah.  I wanna take it sloooow this time.  focus on me and my sanity.

    Speaking of retards, my neighbour has gone MIA with her new boyfriend which is not cool cause she never visits anymore. Bitch. visit me.

    Now.

    Yeah, get up and visit me.

    or else I knock on de wall all night. You wait.

    Chow crackers.
