I.
Start.
Work.
TOMORROW!!!
...O.O...
Yeee!!!!


After ALL this craziness, hassle, running back and forth, copying, faxing, scanning, mailing, running all over God's green Earth, everything.. I START WORK TOMORROW!!! >O.O<
 

^_^  I'd call everyone screaming and bubbling tonight, but I just don't think my throat could take it- so here's a post instead. :) ^_^  (I'll call everyone tomorrow, doing the above. ;D)

..I'm excited, nervous, scared, hopeful, optimistic, pessimistic, petrified and elated all at the same time. :) (Oh yeah, and any of you nay-sayers, smartasses, doubting Thomases/Thomasinas, snark-masters, ill-wishers, etc. can keep your negativity to yourselves. Gracias. B-) I'm already scared enough about my boss's "detail-oriented, perfectionist, alpha-dog" rep., all the hellish ups and downs I've gone through getting this job, and even just the roller-coaster I've had today making sure I can get there.. so with all that and just the stress/excitement of having a new, professional job in so long, I need all the positive vibes I can get! Danke. ;D)

..I wish I knew what my boss's favorite color was.. so I could wear it tomorrow... -_0
This is so wiggy! Frankly, after all the run-around and other flubbubs I've gotten, I was, to some extent, wondering whether this would ever truly, really happen. *smiley shrug* I mean, here I was, just discovering I have pharengitis and a possible abcess in my lymph node all on the left side, feeling a resulting ear infection coming on, feeling like shite, and the SAME morning I'm getting ready to go to the doctor, the Lighthouse calls me to tell me MY MID-CLEARANCE WENT THROUGH, & that --they want me in THE NEXT DAY to start work!!! O.O--

I admit I was freaked out, because I was sick, unprepared to pack n' move all my shite up to my mom's AGAIN at the drop of a hat, (although I'd wisely kept my essentials in my traveling bag), I was TOTALLY not ready. Fortunately they gave me a little time to reply, so I could figger out transport and find out why the heck I felt like such shite.  So I went to the doctor, found out what was wrong, got meds, and was able to start a little later so I didn't run around my new job infecting everyone... But OY.. TIMING!?!?! O.O I mean, I've been ready back and forth for this thing for what feels like -ages- now, and suddenly, when I'm sick and actually NOT available, they call on the SAME DAY I'm going to the doctor to tell me they want me in the next day?? Heh, I shouldda figured. ;) Ya know, w/all the ruts I've hit just trying to GET this job, I'm hoping the actual HAVING the job will be a breeze. ;)

So now, -at last- everything's getting started, and tomorrow, I BEGIN!! :D:D Yeah, my throat still hurts some, but I ain't contageous no mo', an I'm not having to drug myself up on pain meds anymore or physically brace myself everytime I have to swallow, so that's a good thing. ^_^ I'm getting better, I feel GOOD today, (evenhad a great dreamlast night, woke up just before my alarm, and practically jived through my morning shower), :) and I'm really looking forward to starting this new chapter in my life. ^_^ Job, apartment, social life, persuing my loves and my interests... YEE!!! Wish me luck, y'all. I'm gonna need it!! :D:D

Love and Hugs,
Nae

PS, Assuming my boss doesn't hate me and the job goes well (or at least tollerably), I fully plan on taking my good friends who've helped and supported me to get this far out to a Nice dinner. ^_^ So
[profile] plsurkity , [profile] flameofsilver , [profile] echochild78 , [profile] weirdbrainygirl ,
[profile] alsohryu , (and a few other wondermous folks ta boot) ought to make yerselves ready for a fun, festive occassion on me! :D:D ^_^ (Which reminds me, if folks don't want din-din, let me know what else you might like, an' I'll happily spring for that instead. ^_^) Moreover, if ya don't see yourself here, or would just like to come (assumin' yer friendly and your intentions are good), you're welcome to come, too! Lawd knows I've had lots of folks help me along the way, and I'd be happy to celebrate with more instead of less. ^_^

Many Hugs and Much Loves,
Nae

The Good:
My folks might have two chairs worth a TON of meney. ^_^ (Thanks to those who replied to my inquiry entry! :D:D)
After first hearing I'd have to go BACK up to DC yet AGAIN to do MORE fingerprints and fax the same damned 3 papers AGAIN to yet ANOTHER source, (I have no fax machine, so this is always a pisser), I got word that the application I have was going to be submitted anyway, and we're just gonna hope for the best, and that what we have submitted thus far will be enough. Oh, and that the numbers they needed which I read off to them are the right ones... For some reason despite all the copies I've faxed, scanned in, faxed and faxed AGAIN, one person didn't seem to have a copy, and they needed some number from it... I can't figger out why their office colleagues couldn't just fax the one I send THEM to her, but ey.. that's the red-tape busines... ... :P) But she called back and said she'd just submit what she's got, and hope then umbers are okay, so I DON'T have to go back to DC again, for one, brief errand. ;P ^_^ Yay!!!
I just entered submissions to be juried so I might get into the Art Show at the HorrorFind Weekend. ^_^ *hope hope* Keep you fingers crossed! :D:D
I just found (and ordered) these for my new home. *hope hope* I'm trying not to put the cart before the horse- so to speak- but it's really, really hard. ;)
Plus, thanks to LTD Commodities (and thanks, [livejournal.com profile] plsurkity for mentioning them!!) I have -at last- found my wondermous, traditional Japanese dining set! ^_^ After YEARS of looking through stuff, I finally found something that I not only really like, but also that's -stupid- affordable! :D:D (Can we say $8 for a -full, well-made, ceramic double setting,- anyone?? :D:D) Sadly it's on back-order, but the earring stand I got (that holds 148 PAIRS of earrings, and is CLEAR!! *glee*) is on the way. ^_^ And that, that my friends was only $4!!! :D:D (I am SO excited about outfitting and decorating me and my kitties' new space!!! :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D There's so much to do, so much to think about, and I just love it all. ^_^)
Anyway, enough w/the shop-talk. ;) On to the next category. :)

The Bad:
My throat hurts like a BITCH. And the odd thing is, just one side of it. :P:P It hurt just slightly for a while before I left, went away when I went to my folks', and then came back when I returned here. Obviously I chould try to find out what's causing it, but it wasn't bad, just slightly annoying- until yesterday. Unfortunately last night it hit with a VENGEANCE, feels like it might be going to my left ear, and.. ow. Swallowy=hurty, and now talky is equaling hurty, too- as is just.. being... :P Plus it's Saturday so I can't go to a doctor, and we have no drops, no Chloraseptic, and my gramma doesn't feel well either, so she won't go out so we can get some. :(
I didn't get into the alternative crafts fair I was hoping to show at. :(((

The Ugly:
Yes, Virginia, you can have too many piercings... *shudder*
(WARNING!! Worksafe, but HIDEOUS!!!)



Chees y'all. G'day! :)
