I got a text message from my former co-worker Sandy telling me that the twat of a department manager that led me to walk out of my job over two and a half years ago has finally been fired.

For nearly three years, this woman didn't do her job, blamed other people, ran everyone out of her department, fucked with other department managers and their departments, was suspected by other associates to be stealing, and came up massively short during this last inventory.

Oh, yeah. We swore she was blowing somebody or had dirt on someone high up to be kept for so long despite all of this. They've fired other people for less.

And why did she get fired? Rumor has it...sexual harassment.

This is both hilarious and disturbing.

Picture the Wicked Witch of the West without green skin, a little skinnier, missing a few front teeth, and more white trash looking in the face. Now picture that person sexually harassing someone.

You're laughing and crying right now, aren't you?

Yeah, I thought so.

I can't wait for the Ding Dong the Witch is Dead party.

So that's my world in a nutshell right now. Frustrations and crankiness galore.

I hope you all are well. I miss you terribly. I look forward to the day when we can be together again. /pining

I got an overdraft notice in the mail this morning. I've never had one before and I've had my checking account since I was 13 (Mom had me get it to help teach me to be responsible for my money and to properly manage my finances; she's never bounced a check, either). So, needless to say, I was rather perturbed.

But I kept my cool. I went in, got a printout of my transactions for the last month and put the fifteen bucks I had set aside for gas money in the bank just to be safe.

It might not stay there long.

Back in December, a new company took over my bank because it failed and they proceeded to change everything. Kinda like the Borg. Your monies are now our monies, you will follow our policies, we will change the routing number, resistance is futile.

Now, I am accustomed to being charged a maintenance fee. I don't understand the practice of charging someone who has no money, but I know it. So it wasn't a surprise to see that on my transaction paper. What was a surprise was the service fee. Now, I don't remember ever seeing that on my monthly statements. It's possible that I missed it, but I don't remember seeing it. And since it's been about six months since my bank was taken over about six months ago, that would explain why my account is short.

My statement should be due to show up in the mail next week. If there's no service charge on it, I'm going to have a talk with the bank and close my account.

If there is a service charge on it, I'm going to chalk it up to me failing at reading comprehension and I'm still going to close my account.

A maintenance fee AND a service charge? No. That's just ridiculous and it's too much to ask from someone who's broke.

Just no.

I've been on Facebook for several months now and somehow have acquired over a 100 friends. I didn't realize that many people knew and/or liked me, but there you have it. I admit, a couple of the people I'm friends with there are total strangers. I have no connection to them whatsoever other than we play the same game and they wanted to add to their mafia/vampire clan. I figured "why not", and so far those people have turned out to be pretty cool.

Today, I got a friend request in my email from a guy. I didn't recognize the name as anyone I knew, but he had the same last name as my cousin's husband, so I thought he might be one of her in-laws.

And then I saw his picture.

He's not one of my cousin's in-laws. At least he'd better not be because...no. I'm thinking that since he has no friends in common with me or my cousin, he's not.

But we'll get back to the friends in a minute. First, his profile picture.

In it, he is wearing a long wifebeater and laying in a bathtub full of water and judging by the way the wifebeater is sticking to him, it's a safe bet that he's not wearing pants.

After my initial reaction of "That's not appropriate and the angle makes you look like you have boobs, good sir", I checked his friends. All women, most of them with profile pictures that highlight their cleavage.

Now, this confuses me because my profile picture doesn't feature my cleavage. In fact, I'm wearing my Vincent Price baseball tee, which is only considered sexy by those who love Vincent Price and that's only because of the Vincent Price factor. So, clearly, it's not the picture that could have attracted this guy.

My only guess is my recent status message lamented about the fact that "An Active Sleeper" had been rejected, it was the third rejection in a week, and I'd really like the Universe to throw me a bone. It's possible that he misconstrued what I meant by the word "bone" and thought that he had what I was wanting.

I guess I'm going to have to start wording things in such a way that says that I am not easy, desperate, or involved in the porn business in any way.

And until now my biggest worry had been unintentionally offending my uber-religious ex-classmates from high school. Go figure.
