Very lean, tasty if not over cooked.  Problem is that it tends to hop off the plate.

Frog legs do too!

Writing is rewriting *sigh*

From time to time people will come up to me at my job and ask if I have change for a dollar to buy something out of the bubblegum machine.  The way our system is set up, we only take $5 with no tax so the only time we have change (or quarters in particular) is when a customer gives them to me, which doesn't happen all the time (when it does happen, I'm glad to get rid of them because it's more convenient to have dollars than quarters).  However, I have some quarters in my change jar/top surgery change so I'm probably going to back them up in a ziplock back so when customers ask me for change, I can give it to them out of my personal stock.  That way, we both are happy.  They are getting their quarters for gum or whatever cheap toy they want, and I'm getting my coins swapped out.  I just hope this doesn't backfire on me and the boss thinks I'm stealing from him.  If he asks, I will just explain and hopefully the camera will show that I didn't take any money from him.

Just to avoid a potential misunderstanding, I would mention this to the boss.  Shouldn't be an issue, but you can never be too careful.  Innocent actions can be misinterpreted or just wilfully mischaracterised

That's a good idea.  Now that I think about it, it might not be too great of an idea, because I can imagine him saying not to do that.  He has been fine with me in the past taking bank change home to swap out the 20's and replace them with change from my personal storage, so maybe he would be cool with it, but since it's not directly affecting him, idk.

It is a difficult call if you still wish to do this.  Perhaps you tell him that you do this as a customer service and that it doesn't disrupt your work. ...

That's great thinking!  I feel bad when I have to tell them I don't have any because they probably think I'm lying.  Plus, there isn't many food places in our mall that will give out change.  Chick Fila used to, but they stopped recently and the change machine is broken.

I had to get the two, huge fir trees that were really close to my house cut down. I feel like I've lost a couple of friends. It's silly how sad I am over this.

I'm also wondering that if I can successful present as male how much differently will I get treated in the rental place.

I'm wondering what to wear to the Pride parade tomorrow: goth pants and a Bodom shirt which would show my metalhead personality, but make me look for feminine or button up shirt and jeans which would make me look more masculine, but show less of my personality and look a little odd since I have long hair?

show your personality.

I really need to sleep... without nightmares.

I'm wondering what Edge wore.

I'm also thinking that I want to be is a positive person and give a lot of support here. Right now, I don't feel like I'm succeeding at that. This place has become very special to me and I think there are some amazing, inspiring, fun, interesting people here. There are people who I'd like to know more. There are people who I ache for as I read their struggles. I haven't been commenting much. I'm sort of low on words but I hope you all know that I care. I wish I had the right words or could send me feelings of friendship and empathy through the computer (heh).

I also wish I was a little better at opening up. I wish I worried about being "whiny' or "dramatic". I wish I could feel safer posting on a public forum. But really, there's not a lot to say except I'm struggling some. PTSD sort of sucks

It's OK Christopher, you are uniquely you and a part of the family here, want you to know that you count and are well liked here.

Thinking about quitting one job and keeping the other. If I am perfectly honest, I am only keeping it because deep down, I feel deeply inadequate and am afraid to be fired at the job that I do love. Like I have this good thing and I am scared to lose it. But, if I quit the job I hate, I can dedicate more to the job I love.

I can't say that I want to be a person who is held back by fear. And I've never been a head over heart person. I've always chosen to follow my heart and my heart is with this agency, not at the second.

Take your time, Christopher. If it helps any, there are a few other people suffering from PTSD and related illnesses here. We understand how scary it is. If you don't feel like opening up, that's fine. If and when you decide to, we'll be here with cyber hugs and support. I can't speak for everyone, but I'm pretty sure other people agree with me. We know you care and we care about you too.

I've been thinking about my religion a lot. It seems kind of weird to say that. Like I still don't really understand why I have a religion. I'm glad I do though and I'm glad I have the one I do.

Tell them how you feel Caleb! Having been a worker bee at one time I can attest to the fact that they don't fire slaves, if you're doing well they won't fire you, if you are dead wood then that's a possibility.

I'm thinking how I'm excited to see that Edge has a chest fixing fund and I can't wait to see it increase! 

Thanks! I was inspired by you.
