I are Getting Sick.

I started having trouble breathing last night w/the cold reaching deep down into my lungs last night on the long walk to my apartment.  It was all racket-y and rumbly-funky-junky, and kinda burned, and I thought it was just a symptom of the winter wind.  I was kind of worried I was getting bronchitis again, but figgered as it had come w/the winter chill, it'd be better once I was inside.  Well it eased some, but oddly enough it stayed w/me after getting in last night, to the point that I woke up in the middle of the night w/that rasple-y, clunky feeling in my chest and the burning making me cough and makin' it hard to catch a breath.  It had pretty much receeded this morning to a slight rasp as I breathe and a vague, lungy burning, but now my nose and ears are getting congested n' backed up, and my sinuses are starting to ache. :P  So as soon as I get home.. ZYCAM, BAYBEEE!!  
..And maybe some Mucinex, just to be safe.... 

Can't I just have one whole week. or better yet one whole month- where I don't ahve something wrong w/me or feel like crap..?   Jeez.. if this is a symptom of exhaustion or just getting old, I'd like to put the sticker back on the box and return it, please n' thank you. ;)

Does Anybody Wanna Trade Jobs?

No- seriously.  If you make $14 an hour or thereabouts and want out, drop me a line. 
Obviously this job, this environment, this place isn't toooo bad, or we wouldn't have people working hear for literally decades- which we do.  You'll get your 40hrs a week here steady, w/no overtime required, allowed, or even available.  There are lots of good people here, and the health bennies n' 401K are pretty stellar, imnho.. 
It's far from a "BAD" place.  It's just NOT for me.

..I just can't do this anymore.  No drama, no screaming meemies, no evil boss to deal with anymore, it's just the job.  I just cannot take one more day of filing this poopy. 

So seriously, if you want a demi-desk job, w/daily errands to runabout and people to deliver work n' post to, contact me.

AMMENDMENT:  Anyone who wants this post can have it.  As of today I have officially begun the process of resigning.  If you want it, contact the Columbia Lighthouse for the Blind at 240-737-5100. 

All I have to do now is figger out whether or not to tender my two weeks' notice (which I know I SHOULD do, but which I do NOT want to do in any way, shape or form), or resignation effective immediately (which would get me less dinero, but which would save my stress levels immensely).  One of my contacts at the Lighthouse has already been notified, and as for a new job, well- I'm already lookin'.   I know it's a crap economy and just prior to Christmas, but one last thing happened today and that was just.. It.  I can file one more paper and take the crap of certain bitches in that office once more and end up in the loony bin after, or I can say "stop" here, and keep my sanity.  

I'm stopping.

Now, if you or your company is looking for a creative, multi-skilled receptionist, secretary or art tech, or other position you feel I could be right for, I gratefully invite that contact, too.  I'd prefer anything in a creative realm and/or atmosphere, but at this point secretarial work would be fine, too.  I love working w/people, on the phone, customer service, data entry, and anything dealing with computers.  I can speak a good deal of Spanish, some French and a smattering of other languages, plus I'm very eager to please both the clientele as well as my coworkers and superiors.   I have a well rounded background in various office-related programs & machinery, and can of course produce a resume and references upon LJ comment/request. 

Oh yes, and relocation is NOT a problem.  If you have a position available in any of the nations larger cities, I'm up for that as well.   I'd prefer relocation to TO, San Francisco CA, NYC, or Chicago, but again, I'm open for suggestions and posssibilities.


Many Thanks,
-R.

And on a Happier Note:

Like brother- (above), like sister- (below).  *lol* 

They both have plenty of fresh water, but ever since we moved here, Skye has this odd fascination w/the bathroom faucet (instead of running from the room anytime the water's turned on like he used to), and this was the first time Ouna has EVER gotten up on the sink to try it, too.  -I mean, she gets up onto the sink, but she's never tried to drink from the faucet a'fore. ;)  I think she finally saw him get up there an' down again after his last successful try, so of course she- as the dutiful little sister that she is- HAD to try it, too. ;D  She didn't quite make it this time, but HE finally got it after a while. :)  (Yeah- he's tried this many, many times before.  I've seen various trials; like him accidentally snorting H2O, and getting water on his ever-so-dainty, precious li'l kitty paws. *lol*) It was cute as hell to see him so caaaaarefully perched aside/around the faucet, gauging the teeny water stream like  it was either going to explode in his face, or quench some eternal, gasping thirst, and then hear those dainty, adorable little kitty licks he makes when he was so carefully slurping. ^_^

Ya know, I have smart cats.  Skye may be silly, but they both might be ready for toilet training...  :) 
Hmmm.....
