Trying to find a reason to be hopeful

Today I traded shifts at work so I could have the morning off and for once work the night shift. I have said it before and I'll say it again working the open shift nearly kills me. Thanks to some things which are out of my control, that is all I have worked in 8 long weeks. So after a lovely day spent sleeping in and roaming around various blogs, I at least feel well rested. Even though it isn't a day off, it still feels like one.

The other day at work, half of our parking lot flooded. It suck, but we still had to open and try to serve our customers. By 4 o'clock I wanted to kill every customer that said, "Do you know you have a flooding problem" or "Can I make it through the water". It was annoying as hell. The only good thing is that I haven't been yelled at or called incompotant this week, but I still have two day to work yet this week.

Tuesday I went to the bank to deposit money that my grandmother gave me. Since it was a larger amount than I knew what to do with I talked to someone there to see what I should do with. While this nice woman was trying to help me I had to tell her about things like my income, my student loan and credit card debt, and my college education that doesn't really do anything for me. After spending an hour feeling nausous and depressed, I think we came up with a good plan to help me avoid completely ending up destitute.

Winter and I seem to have found a new place for to go in August at the end of our lease. It is on the first floor which may seem werid after almost six years in third floor apartments. Hopefully the landloards are a little less insane than the ones I have dealt with recently. I have only heard good things about them so far, so my fingers are crossed.

Hopefully everthing makes sence, since spell check just refuses to work today. Later.
