Grumpy Tired, etc etc
I need a good header graphic for my resistance guide. Looking at going to truck driving school, which apparently has flabberghasted my grandmother. My mother and grandfather sent me great birfday gifts, beatiful jewelry things and a gorgeous doll. Thank the gods for my grandfather, he doesn't freak out I'm a witch, and isntead find me all these beautiful things. I reall don't tell him thank you enough.
I'm in the sleep all day, up all night phase. I should have been in bed 3 hours ago when the Warcraft serverswent down. Isntead I spent 2 hours going through screenshots. I'm watching Daniel play Sim City right now, makes me want to play.
So yeah, truck driving school. Sounds odd? Not really, I've considered it since I was a kid, Jamie and I entertained the idea when we were together, after having a normal career somewhere else for a while. Jamie went to Sage and looked into it a couple years ago, but then went to work for Verizon. Daniel and I are considering it now, had to wait at least until last September because you can't cross state lines in a semi unless you're 21. At that point we put it on the back burner because we thought we were going to go to pharmacy school.
At this point I don't know if I want to be a pharmacist, I'm interested in psychology, but since I'm messed up, and there's things I have to deal with, it might be a bad idea. I'm also, as my mom puts it, mother to the world, so I'd just bring my work home with me. So, pharmcy school, or prepharmacy school, is on hold. I'm tired of being broke, and working dead end jobs. Call centers are hell on earth, and WalMart made me feel like I'd never get anywhere. I don't want to go back to school, get a part time job, and move into my grandparents rental.
Oh, I missed that. Nonny messaged me the other day. The rental is coming up for re rental next month, and if I want it, Daniel and I can have it. I could get a job, go to school, and get my life back on track, according to her. The catch being I had to make a decision like that day. Needless to say, Daniel and I weren't pleased. It's just moving out of one series of less than ideal situations into another. So, we went and looked back into trucking.
I know there's drawbacks to trucking, I'd spent 17-21 days in a row out on the road, hauling cargo. As someone with little exp, I'd be at the bottom of the payscale, and not necessarily working for thebest company out there. I'd be thousands of miles from family, and stuck in places that have bad music.
but there's perks too. Daniel and I could team drive. That means while we'd be 17-21 days out, we wouldn't be alone. Team drivers get paid more, so even bottom of the payscale we'd make decent money. I wouldn't be so lonely if I was team driving, because even though in "theory" team driving is one person driving while the other sleeps, apparently trucking companies are getting better about that, and so we'd have some time together in the truck. The recruited guy for Sage makes it sound like you get the freedom to stop and gawk at the world's largestball of twine if you so desire, but I don't think it's quite that easy. still, It would be nice to team drive and be able to curl up together for sleep. I miss having someone to sleep with that's not furry and 4 legged.
so yeah, that's steph's rambling in a nutshell.
