so Ive been home for quite a bit now. its lost its charm. the main thing is that Im earning money, which is awesome.
that is to say, if it werent holiday season. Ive been working my butt off and my feet took a beating. glad I had a couple days off to rest. I had a really awesome workweek where I picked up 3 shifts, over 10 hours - the week came to 34 hours. this week I think I got about 29? with picking up a shift. so Im doing alright.
even with the spending for gifts. all in all, I really dont mind.. I enjoy finding gifts for people that I know they will enjoy. the gift of giving does feel good. I have 2 gifts apiece for my sister and mom, and one for a friend who told me tonight he got me something. also got myself another shirt - because it was designed by SCAD, for dexter, and it was free shipping day! I couldnt resist.

in other news, been watching a lot of movies lately. up, wall-e, the men who stare at goats, fantastic mr. fox, star trek (again), and the darjeeling limited. this might upset people. but I didnt really enjoy up that much, if at all. nice concept. thats where it ended.
