Helping My Brother's Girlfriend Move and The Red Head

Well, I have been staying up late in preparation for my new job on Monday. It is not so much a new thing as a return to last summer. I thought that I would hate the idea of going back but I am actually enjoying it to be frank. It is at ABF Freight Systems. It is a provider of LTL services in the East I believe and it is not too bad. It is unionized so although I am a part-timer by technicality I still recieve the same pay which is about $16 per hour. Plus I will receive time and a half pay for anything over 8 hours in a day. If it's anything like last summer I will probably be able to make about $3200 before school starts. I have also interviewed with Starbucks coffee. I am planning to phase that in as I work the other job and then do that full-time and try to work into a management position. I may end up riding it to France actually. I just want something that offers benefits and has a ladder upwards. Working in restaurants is usually good money but it takes so long to build up into something, especially if you have a limited schedule. So for once in my life I am going to think about the future.
Today I helped my brother and his girlfriend move into her new place before they leave for Europe. It was a way to spend some time with the two of them and get a workout as well. She moved from the common University style apartment and atmosphere into a duplex near uptown Charlotte that is pretty cool. I may be able to use the place while they are gone if I need a night alone to keep my sanity.
Things around the house are beginning to settle down and I am getting my room ready so that I can be here as long as needed. Which is at least the next 7 months while my Dad is going through chemo. I am going to be very busy and I think that a social life is going to be out of the question. I am going to try and use the time to get into better shape and work on a business plan for my investment company.
Tomorrow evening I have a date/rendezvous with the now infamous red head. I talked to her two days ago and she was a little upset with me. I thought that we were going to do something Tuesday night and so I called and emailed her. I did not get any relpies so I sent her a less than cordial email asking her what the deal was. After being in France with my peeps I am not very patient and I think that being in my parent's house was multiplying the effect. It turned out that she had called I just had not gotten the message from my family. Ooops! Sorry E, didn't mean to be a prick. After all my talking about her "slipping" away a few years ago I am happy to say that I go into this as only a friend, I am not really interested in her anymore because I think that we are moving in different directions. I still think that she is lovely and I could get along very well with her but I think that the tides have changed. Probably for the better right now anyway since I do not want to get involved with anyone under the current schedule I am going to inherit soon.
I am a little bored right now and I have been playing my X-Box as a result. I have a cool racing game that I am trying to beat and it is kicking my ass. Talk to you all soon and I will take pictures tomozz. Gros Gros Bisous A Vous Tous!!!
