Things keep changing on me, so I'm having a hard time finding a rhythm in things. Now that I quit my Blockbuster job (it feels good to sleep past 4AM) I am/was working at the Briar Cleaner (another store owned by KM Cleaner) from 1-7PM. It's a pretty sweet gig since hardly anyone comes to that store so as long as I get the packing of the clothes done, I can do whatever. Lately that has been consisting of finishing my book on CD, reading, and keeping up on the Redeye newspapers. I still feel like I can be using that down time to do something constructive that may earn me some money, too. I've been looking into maybe investing in some beads to start making necklaces and whatnot. The only problem is that it does take quite an investment to get started in something like that. And I seem to lack motivation. I've also tried woodcarving, wood burning, and this last weekend I toyed with clay sculpting. None of which got very far since I can't just automatically be good at something, therefore I get discouraged.
Anyway, back to my main story. My schedule changed again. Now instead of being back down to 40 hours a week, I am at 50. The KM owners are giving me 10 extra hours a week where I will open the main KM store at 7AM and work until 9AM, go home, and then go to the Briar cleaner at 1-7PM. Today was my first day doing so. I don't really mind though Mrs. Hyun (KM cleaner) talks too much in the morning for my taste. It wouldn't be so bad if she didn't sound like a broken record. The other thing that changed is they are going to be giving me checks now every week instead of cash. This is GOOD because now I don't need to figure out how much I need to take out every check for taxes. They are taking out $60 per check (so I'll be getting a $340 check a week) but the 10 extra hours I will be working will be paid in cash. Also good! I've kinda gotten attached to having some cash on me whenever I want a pop or something. Now I just need to figure out where a US bank is and figure out when I'm going to have the time to go out there and deposit.

This is the IRS! You are busted! Haha :) I'm so glad you aren't working crazy hours anymore. Mind you this still isn't normal but at least it is closer. That and you don't have creapy guys talking to you while you are on your way to the train. That makes me feel a whole lot better, I can't imagine how good it makes you feel!
I am glad, too. At least any guys that do hit on me now can afford to look nice.
I didn't mean that as bad as it sounded.
