Blergh I hate working in sales. I hate having to try and convince someone they need something when they really need to get their priorities straight. I worked for HSN and watching people who by just reviewing their account had a problem with shopping and spending way too much and still I had to try to upsell and talk like everything was something you 'couldn't live without'.

I want the hell out of sales...to do something more worthwhile and get that 'I made a difference' feeling when I go home at night.

Wowzers. I see I missed quite a few pages over the weekend... Yay for catch up reading. x-o

*pokes vix* Hey there! :) Get up to anything fun over the weekend?

*Awkward shuffle* Happy Labor day!

For sure, I went home for the weekend and threw a house party. It was pretty legit and I'm still wicked hungover. xD;

LOL. Sounds like you had some fun. I wish I could say my weekend was as kick ass. Been kinda in the dumps over the puppy. Haven't heard back from the owner, so hubby and I think she gave it to someone else. :/

You should get some greasy food. I hear it's really good for hangovers.

@Izumi: Aw, you're getting a pet? :heart:

Yah I was going to. I don't think we are now. She's kinda being dodgy right now... :(

I knew this morning was going to be rough when we started playing drinking games that involved chugging Smirnoff. XD;

Awww, I always wanted to get a puppy. o: Instead I ended up with two cats, two lizards, a fish tank, and some parakeets...

Aw~ :heart: I hope you do find that lucky pup! :) I wish I could get pets, but I've noticed that I have an allergy.

I have a really special kitty who I love to death. Right now he's hiding from me as he's pissed/scared I ran the vacuum. He *HATES* cleaning....he was earlier hissing at me when I had the duster out dusting the corners of the ceiling. He hates that too. He's a very neurotic little guy. I had him since birth and no I didn't chase him with the vacuum or anything. LOL.

:lol: Don't all animals hate the vacuum? > . > The thing is pretty scary when you think about it...

Well it might be she's gone into seclusion over MIL's death. I don't know...I don't know what is going on as she hasn't contacted me since last weekend when we were trying to get together so the kids could play and to see the puppy. We tried driving down there and nothing.

I mean I'm just paranoid she's written me off and decided to either sell her puppies for money or keep them.

:| That's not cool.. Is there any other way you can contact her?

I asked her the last time I talked to her and she's like nope I'll call you back if you leave me a message on my cellphone. I've left a handful of messages with no reply. :/

:( Is there anyway you could find another?

Hubby wrote a note and left it on her door last night. We're going to wait awhile and maybe try this coming weekend to contact her.

And well Api the other prob we have is there is a strict guideline for dogs in the park we live in. I'd love to adopt a puppy from the pound but if it got too big we'd have to rehome it. For now I'm hoping that she's just really busy and still intends to give the puppy to us. Otherwise I gotta break it to the stepkids and I know they will be upset.

Alright I'm bringing up an old subject but I saw this reading through the pages. Apricot, you referred to be cheated out of something in Gabriel/Kylie's contest before he was banned, what was it?

Oh, wow.. I wish I had something to suggest.

Well, like I said.. They never dicussed payment. So, no one knows. :|

Wait, what? Explain the situation more to me then. o.O I'm confused. What was this contest?

That stinks Api. :/ They said you won?

Vix - is there any rhyme or reason to the crown giveaway? I ask as there has been A LOT of people voicing interest and it might be a tough one. O_o

*Scratches head* It was, like, a.. You get paid after you finish, kinda thing? I don't know.. Everyone was just supposed to be paid, nothing else was said.

Paid for what though? What kind of contest was it?

As far as the crowns go, I'm looking for mentions of questers in the thread. Whoever, is mentioned, I'll just pick four people. No particular reason, just on a whim so there's really no harm in nominating people.

Can you nominate yourself? :XP

I would love to eventually have one myself. It's just they're rare and therefore expensive. D:

----------

Api - the hairpin offer is something you can take me up on too, btw. Dunno if you got another one or even want one. I assume you like yumeh items. *points to her shirt* :3

Sure I don't mind if you nominate yourself. Just keep in mind I'm more inclined to give it someone who's shown evidence of actively questing for it.
