Weekend Update
So my weekend update
Friday-Work announced that they changed their mind and wanted to give their employees a step above what the law now allows, and instead of 1 PTO hour for every 30 hours worked, they will give us 1 PTO hour for every 20 hours worked. The other job that I had 2 great phone interviews for, although they both liked me, decided they needed someone with more healthcare management experience for opening a new office in SF. I can understand it since it would be the only office located in SF and the responsibility to get it up and running would be a huge amount of work. Either way, I feel like it was still a win situation with the extra time offered by my current job. I will stay where Im at for the time being and reconsider changing jobs again after my vacation rolls around in May. If something else comes in between, I may look into it but for now Im happy with what I have.
Friday night I had patrol which was decent however Im beginning to realize that there are becoming too many people in charge. Ive been patrolling since December and there has been several new people who are apparently "on the board" who Ive never really seen or heard about since Ive been doing it. Either way, its a bit irritating to show up for a patrol and always feel like a "newbie" because someone new is "in charge". Im going to eventually give my feedback and request to be emailed on updates and changes to the patrol rather than having to show up and listen to all the new stuff in person.
Saturday-Brunch with some pups. It was a good time at Sparkys and there were 7 of us who showed up. Spike, Sukk, John, Kenji (now known as pumpkin pie), myself, and 2 guys I had never met before. Jodie and Bernard both seemed really nice. Saturday night I decided to head to powerhouse. There I ran into Ace and his friend Matt. The more I get to know Matt the more I realize he really is a nice guy and that my first impression (ok, my second and perhaps third), was not accurate. I also ran into John, Daddy Richard, and spunky, which I can only say, we made ourselves a good time (insert naughty stuff here).
Sunday morning was a bit of hell. I woke up, went outside to smoke, and had a hot ash fly in my eye. My reflexes froze and I let it sit there until I could actually catch a thought as to what was happening. I spent about 5 hours in extreme pain until John was nice enough to bring me some eye wash and some eye drops. After laying down many times, I was feeling ok enough to head to beer bust. I always enjoy hanging out with John.
When we got to beer bust, I noticed a really cute guy and we kind of did the head nod from afar to show acknoledgement. Several times through out the 2 hours there, we nodded, and waved a few times, until he actually came over and started talking to me. We were both pretty drunk but I do remember thinking that he was definitely hot. He kept telling me how hot I was and I wasnt sure how to respond. We ended up making out for quite some time and finally exchanged phone numbers before leaving. I need to call him today.
On another note, I wanted to rip a movie and its been a while since I had done it. I realized that Popcorn no longer worked since I upgraded from Panther to Tiger. Finally I upgraded to Popcorn and downloaded Mac The Ripper. After playing around with the settings on both, I can finally rip movies again. YAY!!!!!
