Y2 D125

Could NOT sleep last night. Way too fucking hot. It was hot all day, but it just wouldn't tone down at night either. I tried going to bed around 10:30 and just laid there until 12:30. Finally went in the other room and tried laying down on the couch as it was cooler out there. Fell asleep somewhere around 1. Thank goodness I don't have to be anywhere today.

That unfortunately is the negative too. I don't have to be anywhere today. Nor yesterday and as of right now, nor tomorrow. I am bench this week. I am in between projects and sitting. I did absolutely nothing yesterday. The problem with being bench is I do have to be ready in case someone calls or emails me and says get out here or let's do this. And that's what happened around 3. My boss called me to discuss one client and we ended up spending three hours doing some modeling work together on the client's system remotely. So while I am bench, it's not like I can run around during normal business hours. I pretty much am tied doing from like 8-5.

The other shitty part is this is the last week of the month. I need as many billable hours as possible to make my quarter. As of right now, I am under water. If I don't get another 10 or 20 hours in this week, I am fucked. Well no more fucked than normal -- I was hoping to get ahead in October, but with no billable hours, it ain't happening. Which means my next chance of getting head is January. Only problem is I have car registrations, insurance, and a couple of things due in October. I have to see how it goes on the 15th, but I may need to ask my bosses for a cash advance. Haven't heard back on any of the second jobs I applied for either. I think when they see someone like me applying (someone who has a white collar job) and there is no relation between what I do and the position I am looking for, I go to the bottom of the stack. But I am still looking. Not going to give up. I need to supplement my income some way.

Miss P called me yesterday out of the blue. Haven't spoken with her since I moved. It was nice talking to her. She caught me up on all her life drama and I realized how much I missed being down there. Oh well. I was hoping to take a drive in October to see all them. Hopefully that can still happen.
