I Disbanded the X-Men

Last night, Mandi and I finished Ultimate Alliance and it played a rundown of all the decisions we made through the game and the consequences they would have on the future of the Marvel universe. Because we rescued Jean, letting Kurt fall to his death when Mephisto kidnapped the two (which wasn't even intentional. We wanted Nightcrawler, dammit!), apparently Mystique would eventually raid the Xavier School, putting Charles in a coma that would last for several months before he dies, thus disbanding the X-Men. How sad, right?

In other news, I'm supposedly going to be trained on the registers so I can play cashier from time to time. I was made to watch the jewelry counter and fitting rooms during Sale Saturday and told Michelle what a great time I had getting to have the chance to interact with the customers, and she and Matt said I could get cross-trained. Glad to be moving up in the world. Apart from that, work still sucks, and I have nothing more on the subject to cover.

Or any other subject, for that matter. My life is just the same as it's always been. I work, sleep, and suffer in silence, or not-so-silence. I guess I will just continue to do that.

Who even knows anymore?

Last night was election night. As in love with Arizona as I am, I can't say I am nearly as fond of Arizona's voters or politicians. My personal victories include WESD bond measure and budget override, Ken Bennett for SoS, the passing of the Health Care Service, and Preferential Treatment Prohibition initiatives, and the failing of the Hunting and Fishing, and (hopefully) the Medical Marijuana initiatives. The latter is still literally neck and neck and we're all just waiting to see it called. That's my understanding, based on my frequent Google Newsing of the proposition. I could go on and on lamenting about Tom Horne, Ben Quayle, John Huppenthal et al.'s victories, but I just won't.

Still computerless, and also now PPless so that's going to be the way it is for a while now. Such is my life.

My financial pickle seems to be improving. I'm catching up very well on my money management, being able to this month pay off most of my debts to Sean, my mom, Scott etc. and next month hopefully not having any more personal debts and can focus on paying off my credit card. I also discovered today that I'm now able to access my Direct Deposit Advance, so if it does come to me needing money again, which it won't because I'm going to start being RESPONSIBLE, I can use that instead of breaking the people around me. Which is a good thing. Though my ACTUAL goal is to build a savings so I can step away from needing to borrow money anymore. Commence Grown Up Jessi.

Also, this month I will be attempting NaNoWriMo. Though, without a computer I doubt I'll get far enough to care. But Mandi wants me to, so I'll do my best. Whatever that is.

I'm not really sure what more than is to write to catch back up with my life. Doesn't matter, I suppose since I have no readers. I think I might put a link to my blog on my facebook so anyone who WANTS to read it, can. Or not. Up to them.

Now back to listening to Julia Nunes.
