the only place where summer can truly be felt lately is at my place of work. days at the centre are not nearly at demanding as usual because not very many kids signed up for summer camps/sessions. thanks to the decline in enrollment i was driven to search for a second job. i've been digging, pounding, calling, e-mailing, writing, flinging and grinning for the majority of this week (i know it's only wednesday, but i'm impatient) and today i made a successful connection. my last resume (of the day) was eagerly thrust into the waiting hands of a manager-on-duty for a notoriously beer-involved bar in halifax. turns out he's from eskasoni and is very familiar with my hometown. we joked around for a bit, had a quick chat regarding my dire lack of bar-related work experience and he sent me on my way, promising to call me within the next few days. i turned on my (high) heel, began a brisk strut down the street and dug around for some music. once my headphones were in, though, i noticed that my tunes had some sort of skipping/hollering quality to them that i never noticed before. i took out my headphones, the skipping/hollering sounds grew closer and the noises seemed to have a raspy/breath-y quality. the manager-man from eskasoni had been chasing me down the street. once he caught up to me, he informed me that i'll begin my new job tomorrow evening at midnight. wahoo! wish me luck, internet-friends. if you know me well enough, you know how clumsy i am and how badly i'll need your luck.
