work has been so-so. some days are bad and i cry and want to just walk out on the spot. others, like today, go so smoothly that i hardly mind being there at all, except for the heat. certain days are just so busy, and there are too many things to be done, and too many people telling me to do too many different things, and it just feels so disorganized and the customers get impatient and demanding and i just break down and cry. i have a new respect for waitresses now, i can say that much. anyway, i guess it will get better as i keep learning the ropes. but i hope i find a real job soon. although there's nothing on the horizon.
but we're settling into our new place pretty nicely. all the floors and walls are in place, finally, appliances are in and working, i have a real bed. we still need some furniture pieces, but im pretty happy with things here.
im going to daniel's tomorrow after work for the weekend. he says he's been swimming a lot lately, so if the weather stays the same i can probably look forward to that, too. it'd be nice if we have the beach by his house to ourselves.
im using my roommates laptop because mine is temporarily dead. the power pack cord/ac adapter is broken so even if its plugged in, theres no power to the computer. and the battery doesnt last more than an hour on its own, so i ordered a new power pack thingy. it should arrive by next week, so in the meantime i'll be spending much less time online. its nice, actually. i can check my email at work, or at home like now, but i dont waste as much time wasting time on the computer like i tend to do. instead i walk around in the evening, or write letters, or other more productive things.
now im gonna finish making the tabouleh i started a bit ago. pictures of the house will come soon. i'd rather wait until its more complete before posting them.
