Laugh in the face of adversity, Hey you adversity? Ha ha ha!

ha ha ha hum

sorry at the moment I can’t do better than that.

WAH! hahahaha

Wait where is Red?

BUAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

I was hired as a temporary full time exhibit developer, to expire when the exhibit opens. That should be next April, but the opening was delayed for a year. At the announcement of the delay, I asked if that meant my expiration would also be delayed for a year. My boss told me no, but they would consider extending the contract somewhat. And never got back to me about it.

Now that there are only 8 months between me and the end of my contract I’ve asked again about my expiration date. My boss finally got back to me today and asked what I wanted to do next. Sort of put me on the spot, but I tried to be as honest as possible. She suggested places to look for jobs. She told me she’d be willing to extend my contract X number of months.

Literally, she said “X.”

So, I officially know exactly as much coming out of the meeting as I knew going in. Do I need to keep applying for jobs? sigh.

How could I not be laughing at this? It’s really funny. I am still in job limbo, but hell, X!

EDIT: she also told me I would be better at my job if I could relax. :D

well things seem a bit better. if only i could get out of my own BS. why do some become their own worst enemy? gee, can i really be that bad of a person? i don’t think so. yet…

i want to be a boot strap type person. how do they do it? what is their little secret?

i think it is internal. something in the brain. a sense of being worthy.

am i worthy? well of course i am. now i need to act on that!

xoxo

rather crying. adversity is kicking my ass. i just want to check out. i think we all got snowed into believeing that life is this really great thing. yeah, maybe when you are 5.
fuck i hate feeling like this.
where is the good in life?

Love it, it is what shapes us. Laugh at it, because you will walk through it. Embrace it, because without it, we would never change. Face it with a smile because if you don’t, it can get the best of you and you might walk through it backwards and lose the purpose of walking through it at all…only changing for the worst.
Walk through it with Jesus always, because without Him, you won’t make it, without Him, you won’t learn what He has allowed you to be there for and without Him, it will be a waste of your time because He is really there anyway and you are just not accepting His help if you don’t acknowledge Him you are not accepting His offer of His hand to guide you through. Jesus walked through all the adversity there is in the world…all of it and didn’t fail, so this is the King I want leading me through all my adversity in life! I will sometimes fail, but He’s right there to help memd my faults and move on.

Sweet home, Chicago?
You’ve been nothing but a whore!
Why did I move here?!

_{At least haiku make me laugh on crap days.}

it makes it hard to care about working together and doing a good job.

I want to make a mark on this project while I’m here anyway!

I will do my best work even when they are unappreciative, deceitful, competitive, and sycophantic.

While I look for a new job, of course ;)

adversity, you’re a effing jerk!!!!!

but adversity and me have broken up, I didn’t like him much anyway, he was a crap date.
