Well I have been here one week as of today ... and everything is going pretty groovy so far ... {knock on wood} ... one bummer though ... I don't get to see Kris too much ... she is gone in the morning when I get up ... and she is usually asleep when I get home from work at night ... at least I have this weekend off ... so she and I can hang out ... we still talk on the phone a whole bunch ... but it is like living in Cali sometimes ... The last couple of days I have really been missing Harley ... yesterday Kris and I were at the pet store ... and they had the cutest all black kittens ... I wanted to take one home so badly ... but I promised everyone I would wait a year ... and I know I at least have to wait till I am not living with Kris and Chevy anymore ... 3 pets in this house are enough ... and I do wonder if I should have another all black cat ... my very first cat ... Bageria (a character from the Jungle Book) was all black ... and the first pet I fell in love with ... and had a great personality ... and then Harley ... the best cat ever ... so I tend to think another all black would be great ... they have great personalities ... but it might be hard thinking of Harley all the time ... I still call Kramer Harley on occasion without thinking ... I am sure that is an old habit that will be hard to quit ... Today Chevy and I passed each other in the street when I was going back to work ... and he was getting home ... told me there is a cooks job at his work I could have if I want it ... pays 3 bucks more an hour ... and I could keep my job at the pizza place at night ... but I hate cooking ... that was one of the things I was excited about when I dropped out of school ... that I wasn't going to have to be a chef in the restaurant at school ... but he was asleep when I got home tonight so I didn't get any info from him ... I'll have to wait till tomorrow to talk to him about it ... but the lunch shift is the first thing I will give up at my present job cause I don't get tipped out of the tip jar ... who knows why ... I work just as hard as everyone else ... and I have a good attitude the whole time ... but he said if he tipped me out of the jar at lunch ... there wouldn't be much left for the guys ... just doesn't seem right to me ... so that will definitely be the first shift I give up when I get another job
