Tomorrow is my trainer meeting with Sarah, the GM o_O I'm really nervous and I keep getting all of these mixed messages about whether I will become a trainer or whether I won't.... why I will and why I won't... and it's hard for me to think about sometimes because I know that this is something that I really want, and I don't like people telling me that I can't get something just because the circumstances are right. That's entirely too frustrating.
I think the biggest thing holding Mimis back from letting me become a trainer is the fact that I'll be leaving soon and that they don't want to pay me/waste money on me for that short amount of time. I wish I could negotiate my pay and just tell them that I don't even want that much money, that I would do it just out of the love I already have for my job, but being a corporate company means that they're not allowed to do that. I don't know, I'm going into the interview optimistic but I'm afraid that something bad will get said between now and then. I think I did a really good job tonight and the last couple of nights so I proved that I could handle it, but at the same time I'm nervous.
Super nerves.
Speaking of nerves, the weather here has decided that summer in Texas no longer indicates DROUGHT season, but instead demands FLOODING. There are huge amounts of precipitation coming down, like 18 inches over night, Lake Travis is ridiculously rising, like 5 inches over night and that's a freaking lot of rain! I mean some of that is immediate land runoff but the majority of it is yet to come and that's just going to be super intense. I can't even imagine really what that's going to be like!
the local channels this morning were playing non stop weather updates. But after work, when Robby and April and I were trying to find out when the rain would stop so that we could go home and not get wet running out to our cars, there was absolutely no weather station to be found. That was minimally frustrating.
Robby shared his bread pudding with me today. I also had two waffles and my left over apple whole wheat pancake. And that's all I've eaten today. I haven't even really been hungry.
Another episode of top chef was on today but I'm going to have to watch it some other time
Gosh I'm addicted to that show! As long as I don't watch anything else I think I'm still alright on the anti-television front. Now I'm off to read a little bit of spanish lit and some Nabokov sooooooo... this was fun ^_^
Tomorrow is my day off! First day off in two weeks!
