News from the Work Front

So apparently my grandmother called my dad earlier today, and my great-aunt's been diagnosed with cancer. It's in her leg or pelvis or something like that - he's not entirely sure.

It's not like I know my Zia Amelia very well, but it's still sad... just in a sort of detached "I wouldn't wish that on anyone" sort of way.

Hrrrm.

I am bored at work, and the week does not go nearly fast enough. Part of the problem may be that I divide my days up into fourths, and so each week is 20 parts long... right now, I'm almost 1/4 done my week, though! Fifteen more minutes!

I wanna go back to Waterloo. Or, I want SimonB and Jason to come home, because then there will be pantstacular things abounding!

In a moment of eternal geekiness, Pat and I did Lidia and Jace up as novas (Aberrant characters/mutants, for the uninitiated).

It was humorous.

When Adrian does Rhys, I'm tempted to beg Patrick to have them be three new students in the dorm, or a random group of NPCs. Cameos are awesome.

Besides, no one yet has Animal/Plant Mastery or ESP in the dorm... ;)

...but I'm imagining Jace and Wings, now.

...too cute.

Let's get the quizzes out of the way first

( Amusing quiz )

Never underestimate my boredom.

C'mon, you know you want to abuse yourself on it...

mrrr...

Assuming I work 6 hours a day, $10 an hour, 5 days a week for 18 weeks...

I make about $5040. That's subtracting my travel costs.

What that translates into is a net gain for the summer of $1040, assuming I do absolutely nothing else. That, theoretically, leaves me with about $57 to do stuff with.

BUT, what it actually leaves me with is $42/week, since I don't get part of my paycheque (it's held for... employment insurance, or something of the like).

$42 barely gets me up to Waterloo and back.

Now, if I maximize work time, I can theoretically turn that number into $137, but only if I work until five o'clock every night.

...basically, what I'm saying here is, I really need Patrick to get a job so he can pay for gas to and from Brampton.

That, or I need my parents to not demand $3500 from me this year, plus $500 for my RRSP...

I swear to whatever there may be, I HAD BETTER LIVE TO ENJOY THAT MONEY.

((RRSPs: my anti-suicide. Or my current suicide. You decide.))

*snerk*

Chantal complained that she only got 73% on my last FriendTest, because she hasn't talked to me a lot lately. So I offered to make a new one, all about her and me! Being a Leo, she couldn't resist...

She's failing. ^^
EDIT: She didn't actually fail, but she got 66... 74 if you correct for a miscommunication. ^^ So, only slightly better than her score on the other one. *grins*
