I came into Heroes late. I actually didn't start watching the show until right before Season 2 started airing last year. We bought Season 1 on DVD and were watching them as fast as we could. Unfortunately, we didn't finish Season 1 until Season 2 had already aired a few shows. (Thank goodness for catching those episodes on the internet!)
I love this show (almost....notice I said almost....as much as Lost). The characters/writing/storylines/visual effects are all awesome. And it is sci-fi at it's best...what else needs to be said! I just can't wait for Season 3 to come out since Season 2 was cut very short thanks to the writers strike last year. And these two previews are freaking awesome!!!
OK, I've tried writing this I don't know how many times without it becoming very long-winded or bitchy. So here is the super short version.
I got fired from work on Thursday. My boss (the 12 year Navy Seal) was almost in tears for having to fire me. His boss, the district manager (DM) and the district manager's assistant (DMA) are the ones that had me fired. They fired me for the produce section not being up to par from the night before. Even though it was common procedure in our store not to fill it up at night, fill it the next morning. My boss, the meat manager and the office manager all said they didn't think I needed to be fired, but the DM was in a pissy mood when he walked into the store and even worse when he blew up. And I (not even there at the time) got fired.
I am going to talk to a lawyer this week...I am not so sure my back problems weren't part of the reason for being fired. And for the first time in my life, I am going to go file for unemployment. And I should win, even my boss said that he wouldn't deny it.
I got some really bad news on Thursday. I have been bumming about it for the past few days. I will post it on Monday, but until then, this will be the last post for August '08 (how did it go by so fast). Enjoy your Labor Day and be safe!
What a lazy day around here. There is nothing better than sleeping with the head on the pillow and sunlight streaming through the window.
Wait, what is that noise? Somebody is ruining my sleep. Oh wait, he is holding that silly camera again. I better look my best.
Oh forget it. I don't know how much longer this sunshine is going to stick around. Anyways, I have more milkbones to eat and cats to chase in my dreams. Which way do I need to lay to get comfortable? Oh yeah, this is good.
I got the bill today for my MRI (back from July). My ex boss (who is well known for lying all the time) told me that the MRI would cost about $3000 and I would have to pay $300 of that after insurance paid their part. Well, the bill came today for the MRI. The MRI (and the 3D reading of it) did cost well over $3000. But my bill was for $35. My co-pay is $35 for emergency room visits. $25 for doctors appointments. So I am not sure why I paid $35 for something that had been scheduled for 2 weeks before I went. But I am not complaining, $35 is a heck of a lot lower than $300!
