A fairly successful spring break  I think. I saw some good concerts, spent quality time with my friends, got my nose pierced, got some homework done, and did some promo for my Rocket Summer show (April 3rd, 7pm at UNO's Student Center!).  And it looks like we'll even get a little bit more time off with this snow storm coming. Awesome.

So Jealous
By Tegan and Sara, Tegan & Sara

So does this make sense to anyone else?

 I was scheduled to work a Saturday double last weekend at Hooters. I don't work doubles, especially on Saturdays. Plus I had just gotten back from Boston and would have been a horrible waitress. So, I called Hooters last Monday and said I would be out of town on Saturday and wouldn't be able to work. I asked Lisa (the general manager) to e-mail me a schedule so I could call some girls. I called lots of girls and either they didn't answer their phone, they didn't want to work, or they couldn't. So I called Hooters on Friday and explained that I couldn't find anyone to work and I would still be out of town. I thought things were fine.

I go in to work Thursday night, like I always do, and my name wasn't in the book of scheduled girls to work that night. I thought that was strange, but none of the girls said I was fired, and Todd, the manager that night, just wrote my name down like nothing was wrong.  I clocked in, served for four hours, and clocked out like always. The new schedules weren't out Thursday, so I went in yesterday morning to grab one. I look to see when I'm working, and I'm not fucking listed! A hostess was back there with me, and she was just as confused as I was. So Shannon, another manager, comes back and the hostess asks her if I'm fire. Shannon explains that since I didn't work my shift LAST SATURDAY, I was terminated. I asked her why the hell I worked Thursday night and NO ONE FUCKING TOLD ME I WAS FIRED?! She told me to talk to Lisa Monday morning.

Is it just me, or is that HORRIBLY UNPROFESSIONAL?!?!  After two fucking years of working there, no one has the decency to call me and tell my I'm fucking fired?! Who fucking works AFTER THEY ARE FIRED?!?! I don't want their job. I was going to put in my two weeks at the end of the month anyway - because that's professional afterall. Hooters has a policy of not allowing any No Call, No Shows. However, I didn't do a no call no show. I called TWICE and told them I would be out of town and that I couldn't find anyone to work for me. They knew where I was, so that should not constitute getting fired. 

I'm going in tomorrow, but I'm not going to beg for my job back. I'm gonna tell Lisa what she did to me is disrespectful, humiliating, and unprofessional. I'm gonna fucking tell her what I think of her during fucking Jumpstart so all the girls can hear how shitty Hooters treated me after TWO FUCKING YEARS! I've followed all their nonsense rules, I've done all their goddamn sixteen steps of service, I've gotten 20 table vists every shift, I've been a team player, I've gotten doctors notes when I was sick, I've told everyone how much fun it is to work at Hooters --- I even worked my scheduled shift AFTER I WAS FIRED. So screw it. I love the girls, I love the cooks, I love the regulars, I even love the only decent manager Todd --- but no one should be treated like I was.

If Sleepless in Seatle was a horror movie, this is what the trailer might have looked like: http://www.tomatopatch.com/films/sleepless.htm

Guess which Full House actor was addicted to meth (and it's not Mary-Kate)? http://www.abcnews.go.com/GMA/Entertainment/story?id=1564779

Although I saw it in 2006, Brokeback Mountain was my favorite movie of '05. Here's a funny spoof trailer. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfODSPIYwpQ

This has kept me from writing my Nonfiction essay, and I'm really happy about that. http://www.studiohunty.com/billiards/

the floor
I'll sleep on the floor at night
because the ceiling is all I see.
Laquered wood and twisted metal
climbing this tower,
now there's mile between us.

And if I can't share your bed,
(heart-beats and breath and
fingers folded and blending)
if I make your pillow salty,
if you need room to move-
I will give you an inch,
but I'll sleep on the floor tonight.

Hello, Good Friend
By The Rocket Summer

Have you ever wanted to write a letter, but you didn't know how to begin or even what the point would be?

I feel like I'm going in circles lately. But I think anyone would react like me. We're all insecure in certain ways.

I'm sick of writing classes. That's bad because I'm a writing major.  But damn it's getting frustrating.

I was really proud of myself a couple week ago because I was AHEAD in my reading for class.  Now I feel very far behind and that blows.

My neck feels a lot better, but it still feels really tight. I don't know what that means, but I'll take tightness over pain anyday.

I'm not looking forward to Super Bowl Sunday at Hooters. Thank god I won't be working during the game.

I am totally going to bomb my French test tomorrow, but I really don't care. I've decided maybe French shouldn't be my minor.

This has been a pretty shitty week and half and I'm happy it's almost over.
