I finally got a job.

Sounds like such a simple thing, doesn't it?

Well, it's not. 

Let me tell you - I've put in application after application, and dreaded the very idea of getting any of the jobs I was applying for.  This time is different.  I wouldn't even have known about the job if my mom hadn't of told me.  She emailed me (haha - it's so hard to get people to email you these days, because of Facebook and other immediately accessable chat places).  Anyways, I just found that part amusing.  So, it's not just me and her that applied, but two other girls.

They're her friends, and I got along with them so well that I also may have gained two new friends.  I haven't had in-person friends in so long.  It's sad.  My disorder has a lot to do with that.  I feel like I have more than one opportunity here.  Getting a new job (that I'm actually excited about) and gaining new friends (that I might actually get to go out and do things with).

My job is at Sprint.  I'm going to be doing trouble-shooting and selling cellphones.  I've always wanted a job where I didn't have to be face-to-face with them, and get to answer phones and be on a computer all day.  It's my ideal job.  And unlike all the other jobs, this one happened so easily.  I feel like I was meant to get it.

(I was feeling hopeless, and now I'm reminded that things can work out, good things can happen)

It's like the universe held out for me to be available to get it.  I start Monday.  Six weeks of training, that I get paid for (10 dollars an hour).  It's four weeks in class and two in the lab.  I can't wait.  We have to wear name-tag passes, and it's just feels all official and crap.  Haha. 

Plus, we get cubicles.  Ya know, out of all the movies I've seen, I've never actually seen a real cubicle.  How weird is that?  I don't realize how much my life has been built on what I've seen on tv until moments like that.  My mom and new friends (and me, of course) were all talking about how we can't wait to decorate our cubicles.

I teased mom and said she was going to fill hers full of pink and brown stuff.  Brown...  I can't figure out how that can be her favorite color.  It's... brown.  What ever, preferences.

I just like teasing her about it.  She don't care.  She be stylin' in her brown... everything.  ;)

Anyways, just thought I'd share, because I'm super excited.  And, because of the money that's going to start rolling it, it's only a matter of time before I can buy another computer.  Then, I will be back to writing regularly again.  I can't wait.  You know how bad it is to want to write and not be able to?

And it's just not the same, sometimes, to write in a notebook when you want to feel the key under your fingers, and feel the satisfaction of your mouse clicking something.  There's something so addicting about the computer experience.  I'm spoiled to technology.

Any new stuff going on in your life?  ;)
