So here's how yesterday started!
Due to my accidentally setting the alarm clock for 8:25 P.M. instead of a.m., both Jeremy and I slept until 10:35...making us each late for work by over half an hour. When we ran downstairs to call our respective employers, we learned that our phone was disconnected! And there was doubt as to whether my cell phone would work, because the battery is almost dead. I lost the charger weeks ago, so I can't do anything about it. We were showered and out the door within 15 of getting up.
Verizon had called, telling us to get in touch with them on Monday, but they didn't say "or else you won't have phone service". And we don't have the money to pay it. It's not like we use the phone, but it's still shitty.
I woke up at 5:00 this morning to go clean the school with Shannon. We'll be splitting $75/week to go clean for a couple hours on Wednesday mornings. It was easier that I expected. I'm going back to assist with pregnancy massage this afternoon (I'm bracing myself for the baby desire to come).
I was scheduled to work this week. And I'm scheduled next week too. 12-16 hours. "It's something..." Shannon said. But not nearly enough. Julie suggested going to Media Power (TELEMARKETING!) for a job. I guess during a trial period they pay $15/hr. Then once you get going it's $8/hr plus commission. I think telemarketing is the last job I'd ever want to have, behind fast food even (my first job was McDonald's when I was 16...a nightmare!) but I don't have much choice. I need to make money. I have bills! I'd at some point like to send away to the state for my massage license! Because using my several-thousand-dollar education sounds kooky, but fun!
