I got hired at Walmart today. Apparently they felt bad that they couldn't pay me the wage I was making at Hughes, which is amazing to me. Did they actually think I would expect a retail place to match that wage? Anywho, seemingly because they felt bad, they pulled some strings to match what I was making at Target before we moved, $8.18/hr, so all things considered, not too bad. I am considered part-time, and to them that means 16-34 hours a week. We should have no problem covering our bills with this added in, so that's a HUGE relief. I can finally stop worrying about that and start putting more energy into finding out how to fund my tuition in January.
I think I mentioned this briefly before, but I've been making a greater attempt to listen to new music and find up-and-coming bands I enjoy. Yesterday I came by a band called Red City Radio, and holy shit. Outstanding. That said, I've also been listening to quasi-jazz like Jamie Cullum and Holly Cole whenever I feel like relaxing.
Resuming my Star Wars marathon tonight probably.
RIP Ted Kennedy.
