OMG! I just bought a digital camera! A bit more than I intended to spend, and a bit excessive when I only need 3 mp resolution, but I think it's a pretty good deal. Looks ok, do you think?

The package includes everything I need, besides maybe an extra battery and a card reader, but I can wait on those.

That feels like a lot of money to spend on something relatively frivolous. That's a month's worth of groceries. I hope I won't need that money for something else. I really wanna get out of P-town and go adventuring somewhere else asap. Maybe I can sell my old Maxxum SLR. Then I'd just have my vintage Minolta and my *brand new digital camera!*

Today at work sucked. The suckitude just keeps increasing. Weird asshole boss who makes me feel like an idiot on a regular basis, all the people I knew and liked have quit, and blah. It gets old, working in the rain day after day. The rainiest season is not nearly over yet. Today I dug in the mud all day. Kicking shovels into the hard dirt hour after hour, lifting shovel-fulls that just get heavier and heavier, wrestling with full wheelbarrows down slippery hillsides, getting yelled at for not doing everything perfectly the first time. But as of yet, the good still outweighs the bad.

Good points:
*I need the money, and the pay is better than any other job I've had.
*I get to be outside all the time.
*Good for building up strength and fitness for Americorps.
*Compared to previous jobs, relatively low-stress and lots of peace and quiet.

Where do you work? Sounds like a good job.

Sorry for the slow reply

It does, does it? Well, the job itself is alright. It's the boss that really makes it not so good. He's like a man experiencing severe PMS. In the last couple months, everyone but me has quit. A few new people have just been hired. In fact, on craigslist, after the boss's wife listed this job, someone else posted a reply warning people not to work for my boss. I think it must have been a former employee. I wish I knew who.

Anyway, to answer your question, I work for a small gardening service with a select few clients. We work in the West Hills in SW Portland and on two very beautiful forested properties out in West Linn.
