Look at that!
Jul. 3rd, 2008 12:28 amI'm posting on my brand new laptop! It's a Dell that I ordered online and it was shipped earlier than I thought. It took me two tries to order it because the first time I made a typo with my credit card info and had to call Dell's customer service to correct it, but Dell has horrible customer service and it was a disaster all around and the order ended up canceled. But then I reordered with no typos and now I have a laptop!
Other than obtaining some nice new technology, I'm woefully behind on everything I need to do this summer.
First of all, I haven't even registered for classes for the fall. I've made my deposit for Temple and can log on to the website, but I need to talk to an adviser to find out what I need to take and I can't find any info on that. No mention of who my adviser is or who to call or email to find out. So I'm kind of lost with that.
I also have to find an apartment. I've gone through Craigslist and found some nice potential places, but I have yet to go and see any of them. Mostly because my work schedule is so erratic I never know when I'm going to have time to do so. I'm not terrible worried about this though since I'm leaving work at the end of July, leaving all of August for an apartment search.
My work schedule is weird right now mostly because there was drama with a new employee who ended up getting fired. She only worked there about a month and she kept coming in late or calling out sick or having to bring her son to work, plus she kept screwing up when closing the store. Then, after going through all the financial papers, the boss suspected she was stealing money. He stayed with her while she closed one night and confronted her when money was missing from the drawer, but when he went to get something in the office she left and left her key in the door. So we figured she quit and had to scramble to rearrange the schedule. But she showed up again on the day she had been scheduled and denied the stealing, denied even running out and leaving her key in the door. But now she doesn't work there anymore. She was crazy anyway.
Nothing much else interesting has happened. I'm not sure what I'm doing for the 4th of July. My dad is going to the Ben Franklin/Besty Ross wedding because his girlfriend is Ben Franklin's daughter. Right now I'm watching this idiotic show with a British guy running around with CGI dinosaurs. My dad found a toad while working and brought it home. Yeah, boring.
