Dead like me

So, I have to go to work later. Actual work with phones ringing and papers to file...like Happy Time but less reapery. And I had such plans for today. What a bummer. I'm not entirely sure what to do about my jobs at the moment, this new one is temporary which is great but I'm not sure how it'll work with the other thing. It's not enough money to give up the other thing for but it fits my unemployment requirements, at least for the moment.

I've been waiting forever to get some kind of call and now I have and I'm finding my plans for the week dashed, how annoying! We were going to pick up seeds, and chickens and other things this week. My life as a farmer has been derailed *and just in, a call for a second interview for the previous job thing from last week*. When it rains it freaking pours. I'm suddenly feeling glad I ordered some grown up clothes with my jeans order...all of a sudden there are places and people to dress for and my vaguely professional wardrobe from my bank days is sadly depleted and or a size ten. The trials of working life...

Yes, chickens. no eggs till fall but whatever.


no, I just thought it was like news flashy. I'm lame, what can I say?

Sugarcrook said...

Assuming you're accurate about this whole "eggs coming from chickens" theory, aren't eggs at the store cheaper than feeding and cleaning up after chickens?

Amy said...

if I bought the 'oh my god what did they do to these chickens to make these eggs so cheap eggs' you'd be totally right but I don't so it's about the same. it isn't cheaper until we grow our own corn so that'll be next winter.

they just passed a thing that made having chickens in your backyard ok in a town adjacent to mine.

I have one friend that is very, very excited about this.

Happy Time - heh.
