got your chin held high and you feel just fine

spring break has gone well. it's been nice and uneventful. i haven't done anything special, just hung out with people. i got to spend a lot more time with jess than i do normally. yesterday daniel and i worked at my dad's office clearing sticks and brush in the back of the property. woodchippers are amazing, those things will eat everything.

howie from delhi park called yesterday and said they want me to start working whenever i can next week. since i only go to school on MWF that means i can work at least one or two days a week. the bad thing is that they'll probably want me to start working weekend mornings right away. that's easily the worst part of the job, especially in the spring and early summer with baseball games.

i applied to p&g this week for a position as a part-time consumer service rep. jen peddenpohl works there, and makes a silly amount of money answering the phones. i hope i get the job; i'd probably be making over twice what i do at the park, and that would really make things a lot easier if we try and move to clifton this fall. i don't care how bad it might suck to have to listen to people's complaints all day, i'll just tattoo how much money i'm making on my hand so that whenever i start to get frustrated at someone, i remember how much i get paid. jen said she'd put in a word for me to her supervisors, so maybe i'll call over there next week and see what they say.

i've been thinking about selling some games and dvds to gamestop for awhile now. i never play or watch some of them, so i figure i might as well make a little money off of it. i even have some N64 games that might be worth a buck or two. i should sell back my regular version of two towers and see what they give me for it. now that i have a dvd burner, i feel like maybe i should sell back even more dvds to them. i already had a couple in mind to sell that i never watch, but now that i can burn the movies before i sell them, i'm tempted to also sell back several more movies that i've only watched once or twice. i love my dvd burner.
