BURNING, BURNING



Def Leppard... always a pleasure to me.  Nice butt shot too. Hee hee.  Are we already at hump day?  Time is burning, burning...

When I first arrived here it seemed like time had slowed down to a lovely easy pace.  I can't believe that I have been here for a month and 11 days.  Still looking for that perfect baby pit.

Now that time has moved into hyper drive, I have begun to panic over getting a job.  I only have one check left coming around this time next month and a trifle in my savings.  Randy says he will take care of me, but you know that is a relationship killer... and I have no desire to let go of this one.

Its hot enough now that I have decided to apply in the public sector for a job that can either be a better thing or something to tide me over.  Yikes!  I do not want to leave behind my good pay, vacations up the wazoo and summers off.  But bills have to be paid and I insist on paying my share.  

When I did a blog post about traditional vs modern relationships, the point was made that in relationships it is often about money.  That made its way into conversation with the man... who told me he never wanted a problem to occur between us about money.  We would work things out.  I do not doubt his word on this.  Or at least his good intentions.  He is a very honest and calm person who is always willing to talk about things to keep our communications open and flowing well.  But better safe than sorry and really, I have my pride about keeping up my half of things.  I don't want a sugar daddy and I am not a sugar baby.

So today, I don my best outfit, which is not very good and walk among the unemployed to file through any place I think might suit my skills and beg for applications... or find out how one applies in this new crisis driven job market.  Scary stuffs!

I would not mind working on line at home.  I have a nice office space and no distractions... no children to rear while working, no social obligations, no elderly parents to tend.  But I've no clue how to find those jobs.  Anybody out there know?  I am open to suggestions.

So if not... what's up with your hump day?
