My new co-worker showed such generosity to me today, it was amazing.  She is going through personal problems that she asked if I could take over some of her workload.  I don't mind too much because I am eager to learn some of what she does to get experience so that I may hopefully turn it into a better job.  But today she told me that she wanted to give up some of her salary so that I could get a raise because I was doing more.  I know it sounds like "yeah right", but she really did go do it.  She went to the boss.  Whether this raise comes to light or not, it was an incredible and generous thing to offer.  God Bless her!!!

So I was walking home yesterday when I ran into this guy down the street.  When we were younger, very young, everyone would tell me how he had a crush on me.  I was shy, so I never did anything about it.  Not to mention that I never heard this from his mouth.  But I always felt very complimented that he showed me attention.  We haven't seen each other in a long time, but this past winter he came out of nowhere on a snowy morning and offered my sister and I a ride to work.  We took it but I felt weird accepting it.  I still don't understand how he could of recognized me since I had my hood over my head and was covered up with my scarf.  About a month later he caught me again on the bus stop and insisted on giving me a ride, this time I was alone.  Yesterday when we ran into each other he was being cheesy and asking me vague questions about things that happened 15 years ago.  He was like I should remember.  I have no idea what he was getting at with his questions.  All I could think was somebody please come rescue me.      

I dreamt that I was going to enter a writing contest.  I mean I really wanted to enter this contest in my dream.  What's so weird is that the grand prize was $9 dollars and .99 cents.  So obviously it wasn't the prize that I wanted to win.  I even gave my project a title- "The Quintessential" which was to be based on a married couple.  Purely fictional.  I have to admit that while I've heard of the word "quintessential" I did not truly know what it means.  Awake I had to look it up, but asleep I seem to know a lot more. 

Long live FICTIONAL love!! Reality cannot compare. Happy Valentine's Day to everyone!

I am so glad that I didn't have to go out today. It's a good day to break out the dvd collection.

I have to admit that I feel crappy in a sense.  I truly believe that everything happens for a reason and hope that everything turns out for the best.  So far, this year is not turning out the way I hoped it would.  I just have to keep telling myself that things could be worse.  Please God, don't let it.

Does anybody know if it's legal for you to be told not to come into work because it is slow?  I don't understand how you can be told this when you were hired as a full time employee.  I should also mention that no one has even mentioned that layoffs could be a possibility.
