I'm currently writing my story on what it was like growing up with a disability. Just something I'd been meaning to write for years. so it should be fun.

Oh, and do leave me a message letting me know what you've been up to!" When he asks how the phone/voice mail knows it is him that is calling, explain it's a new technology. Switch it up occassionally with a different voice mail. This will also work using a cheap cellphone for this purpose only.

Or...ask him to stop calling so much, and give him the reasons why. Don't feel guilty.

Am I right to assume that you're having a piece in fashion week? Agh the phrasing is all wrong I know but I'm not down with the lingo. If you have, I'm majorly excited for you!!

JTIS - took my toddler to an amusement park Saturday & there was a fight between 2 sets of parents in the kiddie pool at the water park area. Like, an actual screaming & pushing/shoving match between 2 moms. People are gross.

WOW! Those look great!

I must be vegetable illiterate because I have never heard of lemon cucumbers, green zebra or lemon boy tomatoes!

I am very impressed!

So a few weeks ago, I mentioned my job situation. To refresh ya memory, I had a full-time 40 hr week job, but due to budget reasons, several of us had our hours cut to 30 hrs.

Since then the boss gave some hours back to 3 employees if they work them at another location due to them firing a few people there. For whatever reason, me and two others in the department were not given that option. Although me and the other's are upset about this, we didn't complain.

So Saturday, my close friend(though she is one of the three that got some hours back), told me that the boss is suprised that nobody has been upset or complaining about only having 30hrs. I have the feeling that he thinks we are content and happy just working 30 hrs a week.

Meanwhile I got a call from a job I put my application in with, and tomorrow I have an interview!

The green zebra tomatoes are my current favorite. A little tart, with very few seeds. Lemon cucumbers have been popular in the garden centers recently, but this is my first time growing and eating them. They are pretty much just like a regular cucumber, but small enough to eat by yourself.
