Duped!

I was duped by an 8 lb yorkie!

This little puppy is tricky!  An evil mastermind if you will...

So I'm sitting at my computer yet again applying for jobs when one my roommates little yorkies (she has 2) sits at the door like she has to go outside.  Being the good dogsitter that I am, I open the door so she can go out.  Her sister runs to the door as fast as she can so she can go out too.  Then once her sister is outside yorkie #1 runs back in super fast to take her sister's bone!

Now that is one smart and manipulative little doggie...and I fall for it everytime! I guess it's either be duped or clean up a mess the one time I don't believe her...

Let's talk "Art"

And by "art" in this post I mean drawings, paintings, pictures, sculptures...not books, film, or music.  So calm down.

Moving on...

Okay so I'm on Pinterest today and I'm looking around in the "art" section.  For all who know me know that I hate "art".  Yes, that's right I HATE it.  I think it's dumb.  I do not understand it.  I cannot comprehend, for the life of me, why a crooked face or a line that isn't straight is considered "art".  It looks sloppy and lazy.  Honestly, who can't draw a crooked face or a line that isn't straight?  I know I can.  Does this now make me an "artist"?

And another thing, what's the deal with taking a person's body and putting a weird animal head on it or an inanimate object on it as the head? I just don't get it.  What is the purpose?  How is this "art"?  People get paid for this?  It seems to me this type of "art" is keeping serial killers on the streets.  Why do I need a picture of a man with a toaster oven as his head?  Is "art" defined by how weird or outrageous a person can be?

I find that I get frustrated by "art" and I think it's basically a big waste of time.  If you are going to draw a squirrel then draw a squirrel...why does it need to have six legs or a tail coming out of it's back or a toaster oven for a head?

Maybe it's me not being able to think in the abstract but I just do not understand...

I live the highlife...don't be jealous

Not fair...

It's not fair for boys to be both cute and charming.  How's a girl supposed to get anything done?  I mean really....not fair.

Ps- you know I'm right...

B-A-N-A-N-A-S

OMG-  the past few weeks have been totally bonkers.  I'm again in the "semi" part of being employed, ie. not so employed right now.  It totally sucks.  I'm working just enough so I can't even collect partial unemployment because they freakin wait until the last second to tell us the project is ending.  I'm so over it.  This is the most frustrating thing! How's a girl supposed to pay her loans when she's got a crap job that she may or may not work from day to day?!?!?!?!?!  I don't know when or even if I'll get a "real" job instead of this bs one I've got now.  I'm getting so overwhelmed and frustrated by this nonsense.  OK i'm done whining.  Please wish me luck on a new job that actually pays me on time...oh yeah they didn't even pay me last week on time.  Biotechs.

Awe...

So I am totally a sucker for romantic comedies...

As of now I watched Friends With Benefits 3 times and am now on my second viewing of Something Borrowed just this weekend!  Dont judge me, I can't help it!  This movie is too freakin' cute and I'm kind of surprised I even like it because I LOVED the book so much.

Ugh they make these movies for suckers like me and I will continue to watch them and love them.

Vanity license plate guy...

Hey guy with the vanity plate "PRSU THS",

You should be put down simply for the douchebaggery you inflict upon the world.

"Semi-employed"

Okay, I have a lot to say today.

So the past few weeks have been the best examples of semi-employed as I can present.

A few weeks ago, the project I was on ended.  I was conflicted out of a few other projects and therefore didn't work for two weeks.  Unemployment is super boring but at least I had the time to get the resume out there...hopefully this round will bring me some sort of success.  So far, not so much and it is so frustrating!

I was so glad to get the email that I was starting a project this past Tuesday.  I was not so glad when I got the notice that the project ended Wednesday night.  Yep that's right, a whole two days.  Awesome.  Don't get me wrong, I'm glad to work when I get called in but this is really getting old. 

I did actually start another project yesterday and it's slated to last about two weeks.  Good news--they allow overtime.  Bad news--I'll have to work my butt off to get the hours because Monday's a holiday so I'll have to make those hours up to get the overtime (ie-super long days during the week and probably long days over the weekend) again I say awesome.

I'm so over it.  I don't think I'm asking for a lot when I just want a normal job.  One with actual stability, a steady paycheck, paid holidays, vacation time, and health insurance!  Is that really too much?  I mean, I am educated.  I have the colossal loans to prove it! 

Having a job where I actually get to use my brain and my education would be amazing.  I feel like I'm getting dumber by the day. 

On that note, I need to go look for and apply for some jobs.  Wish me luck!  I need it.

Summer, where have you gone?

Dear summer,

Is it Labor Day already?  While I know that summer isn't officially over until September 21st, we all know that summer fun pretty much ends after Labor Day weekend.

I feel like you just got here and yet so quickly you are leaving.  I can't believe it's been three months already.  The summer sun, the hot and hazy days and nights, the bbqs and picnics with family and friends, dinners and drinks outside on the patio, vacations, baseball and concerts...I can't believe you are coming to an end!  Why is it that you are so quick to leave us?  You bring such joy when you get here and such pain when you leave...I feel like I'm in the middle of a Milli Vanilli song...

Thank you summer for the fun memories...see you next year. 

Oh fall (side note-I'm not a fan of calling fall autumn.  I'm not sure why...)

I'm looking forward to your chilly nights, wearing sweaters and jeans, the cool crisp feeling of fall in the air and football.   

While I don't like to say goodbye to summer, I'm glad to welcome you fall.  You also bring the joy, just a different kind. 

-Jess

Been so long.

It's been so long since I graced you with my wit...sorry folks!  I'm back and I'll try to be more consistent with my postings.  Although a little help with ideas/ topics would be great ;)
