Thirsty For It

Have to make this quick, it's really late. Today's plans didn't go quite like I had hoped. I found out yesterday that I have a day off today only to wake up late in the morning to the new update that I DO have work in the evening! So I didn't do much today except apply to a few jobs. That's it. Tomorrow, I'm working until 4.30 and then go to this immigration session thing at 5.30. Then Friday I got my dentist apt yay! Then Sat and Sun, I don't have work so I'm planning to do some serious job applying.

I had a fruit today that was LITERALLY made of seeds and seeds alone. It was disgusting. I couldn't eat it. It was like biting into a plump juicy flesh of pits. Yuck! That even sounds disgusting. I'm sticking to my mangoes and melons.

Yesterday, I ran into that guy again. I run into him a lot these days. He works at a travel agency right in my building. We chat sometimes when he's on his break. It's funny how we started talking. Last year, I think it was a few weeks into his employment because I'd never seen him before, we were in the elevator together and he struck up a conversation with me. I told him what I did, he told me what he did and ended with him giving me his business card and asked me to call him. I never did. But there was no hard feelings. Anyway, fast-forward to yesterday, I mentioned to him that I once thought of applying at the travel agency where he now works. He said to me send my resume to his email address and he'll talk to his boss for me. How sweet is that? Only thing is, I don't have his business address w/ his email on it. I think I'll stop by tomorrow evening after work and pick up a business card. I wonder what the pay is like there. At this point, I don't think it matters. I just want some little change in my life. I want this like you want a crystal clear glass of cold cold water on a scorching humid day while driving a car with a busted ac and the raging heat parches your throat so dry, it's hard to swallow, it's hard to breathe and all you can do is close your eyes a little and wipe away the sweat from your scowling brow, your nose, your eyelids with your clammy wrist. Like a roasting hog, slowly baking, your brain melting, and your eyes losing clarity, you move a little in your seat into the shade of a wiry pole waiting for the light to turn green.
