Earlier this week I had one of THOSE calls with my supervisor, where I got issued write-ups for not getting anywhere near quota. Whatever I may feel about my job right now, my supervisor is sort of awesome, so it wasn't so bad. I basically got asked to a.) get 200 more claims than I've been getting for the next two weeks, at least, and b.) get my hours in earlier in the week than I've been getting them in (i.e., not spending, like twenty hours working every Saturday, and no, I wish I were joking).
So, I've been trying. I still have about thirteen hours of work to go, but at least I won't be working a million hours tomorrow, which is really great. I'm also already about 150 claims over where I've been hitting the past few weeks on average, so with those thirteen more hours I should hit where I'm supposed to hit. So, yaaaaaaaaaaaaaay. :)
That said, to make sure I get my hours in, I put "Monsters of Moosic" on the side until the weekend. At which point I get to work on it at the same time I study for finals. So, yaaaaaaaaaaay (except slightly more sarcastic).
I think I should do okay on my finals, even though I definitely won't be keeping my 4.0 after the end of the semester. I've got an A in History of Jazz without a problem (even if I do terribly on my final, every other test and paper I've done has gotten an A, so ...), and I should get an A in Law unless I get whacked over the head before I take my final. Math Throughout History is the problem, although when I say it's a problem, it's not like I'm going to flunk. I'm pretty sure I'll end up with a B, which -- as the worst grade I've gotten since I came back to school -- is far from being tragic.
On the other hand, I made it into the school's literary magazine this semester! \o/ I submitted two poems ("First Visit To The Gay Bar" and "Half-Life") and two pieces of fiction I wrote in my creative writing class in the spring. They decided to take both poems, but the fiction decisions aren't until next week. Still, woohoo! \o/
Also, I am now hooked on "Elementary", I'm really happy with the eliminations this season on "Top Chef" even if I'm not completely thrilled with the contestants, and "Project Runway" needs to stop annoying me.
