New Job Update

Okay, okay....Listen, I've not been out of touch because I am lazy. Well, not solely because I am lazy. I also have begun my new job! I was in Norco, LA (near New Orleans) until a week and a half ago, and have been in Plaquemine, LA since, with the exception of the one day that I was moving between there and here, getting site-specifics, etc. But I've not really had a day off since I came to Louisiana. They are saying that we will probably be outta here in about 4 days, and I'm not really sure what the plan is after that.

Two jobs down, I have a much better understanding of the new position and I think that I actually am/can be really good at this job. Plus, it will provide me with the funds to do lots of other stuff that I want to do. I already make more $$ in one week than I used to make in a month! It's been really nice not to have to scrimp when I want something, and even nicer than making a good paycheck is being so buy that I don't really have time to blow much of it, so it's building up nicely in the bank! Woo-hoo! It can be stressful at times, but every day is something new and there are really fun people to work with, really weird people around here, and even a handful of heinously evil leprechauns out for blood (though mine seems to be of no importance yet, since I'm still a new nobody).

But I've met a lot of great people. There's a kid named Dustin from Oklahoma who works with me here at night and, when we're not too tired, we really have a blast making fun of each other and singing to classic rock in the office. And all the while getting all of our work done...Imagine that! I can sometimes actually work and talk at the same time. I must be getting better with age, hmmm?
