Guess who came for dinner....
Saturday, September 10, 2005

Well...I suppose (grin) that with all the support and good feelings that I've gotten from my fellow browncoats over the last few years that I should share something a bit.

It wasn't exactly dinner time, so forgive the title just a bit :). The long tall and skinny of this is that I received a visitor last night that has been long in coming. About 9 yrs long, I should say.

As most of yas know, I did not have the honor and priveledge of growing up with my sister as a fixture in my life other than for "what if's" and the once or twice a year visits whenever my "mother's first husband" decided to remember that he had a son....

Well..it took a bit, but she is currently sacked out on my couch after a long night of excitement, joking, lauging, etc etc. I am sure that the bad feelings shall come later when we talk about all that's happened (mostly from myself, I tend to keep important conversations for in person).

As for now...not even the most asinine and rude person that I encounter at work probably will not be able to even put a ding into my good mood! I can honestly say that I am in the best mood I have been in in a very long time. Which is to say that I have absolutely NO idea how to handle it lol. I would probably have to work hard to come up with the caustic sarcasm that's my trademark here!

So...for just this one time, I love you all..trolls included, for just this one day! Tommorrow, however, is another day :P

Well, an update of sorts.

She has to leave to go back tommorrow morning and I have to work, in addition to working today.

I have tried unsuccesfully to get the day off or even half a day off. Managers, supervisors, and even my fellow workers here simply don' care enough to help me have just a little time to spend with my baby sister.

I am now completely, totally, utterly fed up with this damn place. I'm always the one that does the favors and helps people out, but the only time I need help, there's none to be found.

So I am now going to start actively looking for another job. I am sure that somewhere, an employer would value a hard worker that's extremely intelligent, adaptable, witty, and knowledgeable. Comcast has certainly wipped out the proverbial straw this time...
