• Allegedly, it's pay day!  We get paid on the 15th & 30th of
  the month so I'm expecting someone to walk into my office with an
  oversized novelty check, balloons and Ed McMahon to hand me the check.
  Ok, so what I'm really expecting is a bland envelope with my name
  potentially mis-spelled and a check in it.  It won't be my regular
  amount on the check as I havent worked 15 days but it'll be
  something.  I haven't added anything to my bank account since
  mid-August and I've charged so much crap that I'm afraid to look at my
  American Express statement (which is still in its envelope somewhere on
  my desk). 

  Yesterday I went on a hunt for some supplies. I made out with some
  post-it notes and a desk calendar.  Evidently we don't stock pens
  or paper in our building so I had to give an order request to the
  secretary(or whatever her official title is).  Aside from that,
  work has been pretty much the same old stuff.  I'm doing alot more
  work than I usually do and I dont know how, but it gets all done in a
  fairly good amount of time.  I guess I'm just talented.  

  I decided in the end not to take off work tomorrow for Rosh
  Hashanah.  My reasoning was I didn't feel right asking for a day
  or even a half day off at a job where I've only been working for barely
  a week.  And it's not like I'm missing services or something, it's
  just a family party in Long Island.  In fact, the only reason I'd
  really want to take the day off would be to be able to sleep in. 
  Oh well, life goes on.

  And by the way, I've made a new blog on my site that will include
  reposts of these Xanga posts and probably other postings.  Check
