Remember

Time has stolen some of the most precious moments from my life
Buried them deep inside
But I will never give up
I will not let you take them all
I will always remember “Sunshine”
I will remember the angel for Christmas
I will remember Pink Floyd
I will cherish the smell of her apartment
You have taken them from this life
But you can’t take away their spirits
I will think of her every time I hear “The Rose”
Or hear a train whistle blow
I will think of her on Christmas
I can picture the glitter she wore
I remember how she hated that gap in her smile
I thought it was cute
You’ve stolen the voices
I will hold on to their hearts
I may not remember the last words she said to me
I don’t know her favorite color
Yes, you have taken that from me
But you have not won
I remember her kindness
I remember her smile
I remember her love for her children
I will never let go of the memories I do have
I will not give that up to you
I will always fight so that I may remember
The ones that I have lost

I started this project to revise our training procedures and make a nice thorough checklist because we are going to be hiring/training a lot more in the upcoming months. However, I just don't want to do it anymore. So I'm not going to right now :)

I'm on a 90s music kick today. One of our admins at work has an audio stream that allows us to search by artist, title, genre, album or year. I've been searching by year and requesting my favorite songs from 1996-1998 (high shchool for me)

I've also been thinking about the different people I've met in some of my communities. I feel sad for some of them that seem to be stuck at a point in life similar to where I was at just after high school. I had a loser boyfriend who became the loser dad for my wonderful son. Who then became my loser husband, because I thought I couldn't get any better. I remember making excuses for him and how he was not really bad, but I knew he was. I remember trying to basically sell my life to my friends and family when deep down I knew I was in a bad place. I just wish I could tell anyone in a situation like that (including my sister) that it really doesn't have to be that way. You will find something better.

But I know better. I was told that then and I didn't listen. I had to learn for myself. I had to hit the bottom before I would accept that I could change my life. There are no shortcuts in life. You have to stay the course and find your own way. No one else can walk the path for you.

I just hope I can be there to help those close to me find the way out. And I'll be so happy to see them find the way.

I've been a bit spoiled by my new duties. The week I was working lead with the boss out of town I didn't have to take a single call from a customer. In the past two weeks I've had very limited time actually on the phone with customers. I've been doing pre-interviews, scheduling interiviews, and sitting in on interviews. I've also been writing/rewriting procedures like there is no tomorrow.

I have started to get grumpy whenever I have to do actual tech work. I just hope they make the decision soon to keep me as the only dayshift lead. The choice still seems as obvious to me as when they first decided to "try us out" ;)

At one point I had set all posts to be minimum of friends only, but
I don't care who reads this anymore. I think I have it set to use
public by default.

I'll find out now :)

I was bored at work so I was looking around at ABC and found a casting call for a new gameshow. I got an email back from them today asking for a video. That's kind of neat.
Although I'm sure anyone who emailed got the same request. I may do that just for kicks.
