Yardies at home and Farrin (part12)

[Ellsinlove 2]

Well, it's official, Gov. Schwarzenegger has gotten court approval to furlough state workers. Starting next month for the next 18 months I'll be making 10% smaller salary. I already struggle to get ahead or at least break even around here and that $300 is going to hurt. The cost of living here is just outrageous and 'fringe' workers like me can barely afford to live where they work. This year is really going to suck! If it wasn't for my honey, life would be pretty dismal.

IW.. the place really does have bed bugs...LOL

ELLS, dont feel bad, i seem to be having one of my annual life sucks moments, every year im burned out and upset about my job but then i remember i am one of the few still fortunate to have a job in a dismal economy. One of my coworkers today said how do you afford to keep going to Jamaica and then the other a-hole i work with said her boyfriend is a jamaican druglord who sends her money...( gotta love dumb f-cks!) anyway i said i cant but some people choose to spend there money differently, i said when we got our last bonus you went and bought a 200 dollar camera, i took that money and put it on a plane ticket and then bought a 5.99 disposable camera at the drugstore, you spend money on the things that are important to you.. she said but i have no kids, a car note and a roommate, and you have 2 kids a house and a car note, and yet i never have any extra money....( shrugging shoulders)

Shrewdie, i swear seems as if sometimes they( co workers) go out of there way to say dumb Ish to me, and it is all i can do to not cuss one of them and get fired...LOL

then the super dumb one gonna say, Im a drug mule for my boyfriend that is how i continue to afford it...

if you guys remember he was the one who threw something at me last year and i was so mad i was seeing red. I just learn to ignore him cause he gives a whole new meaning to the word Ignorant

Good observation ELLS, i saw that movie but never noticed it.. that is the older movie with Robin Williams??? and i think his wife committed suicide or something?? i might have to rewatch it???

Jamerican is an aesthician (sp?)?

Yes I am....and nail tech...starting school in april for Massage Therapy.... Can't figure out what I want to be when I grow up!!!!

[jamerican 2]

Who says I wouldn't want them there, Sus?????????

It's one thing to have them there - It's another to create one yourself and then try to explain how it arrived

Ha ha......no comment!

My friend just e-mailed me to tell me how her husband got so drunk last night, when he got into bed, he didn't realize the dog was between them, and kept feeling the poor thing up, thinking it was her.

My whole day has been kind of surreal like that today!

LMAO!!!!!

Please don't ever let that be my husband!

Maybe she needs a visit to Jamerican for some wax work?

SUS....you are crazzzzyyy....but...unfortunatly I have seen it ALL

Hey IW...I was wondering which I-134 did you take with you to the interview? The old one that had to be notarized or the new one that doesn't need to be?

I took the old one - I didn't know there was a new one.

ok gals...I have enjoyed reading about what duties/drama you have at work so here goes my day.....1 pedicure, 2 facials and 2 punanny wax's , off to work I go!!!!!!

Enjoy!!! I'm still scared to get a punanny wax....

She is the one giving the waxes...

I know. I think I'm gonna have to visit her. My best friend owns a salon and she said she would do it for me before my last trip but she said that it would be like raw hamburg for a couple days - NO THANKS!! Now mi scared..

IW..I would suggest not having it done for the 1st time right before a visit or big event mainly because you arent sure how your skin will react and that wouldn't be the time to test the waters!! Majority of people don't...or should I say...shouldnt have problems if being done by someone who knows what they are doing and using good product. Look for a place in your area that uses Nudesse to wax with. It is soy based and warmed to body temperature so #1 is better for the skin and no chance of it being too hot. It always amazes me when people come the day before their wedding for their 1st wax....???

How about a roommate Ells? I'm sure there is someone out there in your same position.

Thanks for the tips. I'll go now and then it will be all healed in a month! Actually I have tried the at home kits and other than a little tender that day I don't have trouble. I DO have trouble ripping it off my own skin though!

Me either! I think many of us are in that position so don't feel too bad. At least it sounds like you do something you mostly enjoy right now.

I live in a jr. 1 bedroom so the only roommate I anticipate in the future is my honey. I haven't had much luck with roommate situations here in SF...there are a lot of freaky & dysfunctional folks you have to wade through to find a decent person to be housemates with. Granted, I know I have my flaws but at least I clean up after myself and take the trash out. I've just had too many less than stellar experiences to be willing to move into a roommate situation again. I can make rent alright but I'm gonna have to cut back other places. Maybe I can save on water if I don't shower every day! LOL!
