10! 10! 10! Yaaaaaaybigfuckingdeal... (*cough* I started writing this yesterday, so deal with it.)

So I am even MORE frustrated with my job than I have been lately. The owners bought a new hotel and took one of our desk clerks over there, which I don't care about, but they also took our head of housekeeping. We have another housekeeper that's been here since this place opened, knows the property backwards and forwards, and does the head housekeeper's job on her days off. And management hired someone new to take over the head housekeeper position. I am pissed, partly on behalf of the girl (woman, really) that stayed, but also because if she doesn't get promoted after 15+ years, how the hell am I supposed to believe that I will ever get promoted? C, the new front desk manager, keeps talking about how I'll get promoted if I stick around, and the new GM has been asking me quite often how I think things are going, or how the staff meetings went, and that was giving me hope... but I feel like I'm being strung along at this point. What am I supposed to believe? What I'm told or what I SEE? Seeing is believing, right? Heh.

Also, stuff with writing for the other blog fell through. Got an email from the girl I know that people she was sending their way weren't getting emails back and she wanted to see if I had. I hadn't so I told her that and emailed the other editor again. Saturday I asked the girl I know if I should try again, and got this response: "I checked back with C and the impression I got was that she wasn't interested in bringing you on board." C never even talked to me. I don't know if she even read my stuff at TTC. And that SUCKS. I know that rejection is part of this writing thing, but I had an in this time, and they didn't so much as chat with me. I'm annoyed. And yes, a little insecure now. *sigh*

Maybe I'm too conversational in my reviews and it comes off as unprofessional. I can't decide if I should look at changing my style, or if I should just say "fuck it, this is how I like to write, and someone will just have to appreciate that instead of changing myself."

Also, I've been watching Running Wilde and LOVING it. And I got to interview Will Arnett last week!

After conversations in comments in my last post, I've decided to break down and ask the parents if I can use their treadmill. It'll get me back into working out, and make them feel better about "never" seeing me. Win-win, right?

So I'm trying the Couch to 5K thing again, this time on a treadmill that I know won't try to do me in, and I'm making work out playlists. Anyone have good walking/running music they want to rec me? DLs would be great, but I can also capture music off Youtube if I can find it there. :) Bring it on, guys!

Challenge: #120 touch @ [livejournal.com profile] snupin100
Characters: Remus/Severus

b) There is also another MPREG comment drabble that Ellid bunnied me into! ;)

2. 21 pounds even off! I'm about a third of the way to my goal! Urgh, but coming off so slowly! I need to get back on track with exercise. I had a lazy week, then DH came out and I spent the next week reading and internetting over it, then it just got stupidly hot outside. Must re-commit to exercise now that it's gotten ever so slightly cooler!

3. I'm in an icon making mood and looking for Snupin Mpreg art that's not gift art that I can see about iconing with the artist's permission. But I'm totally failing at finding almost anything. Rec me some snupin mpreg art?

What is it with me and mpreg all of a sudden? ;)
