I really don't like my boss at the studio. She seriously has no business being in the photography business. I think she should have just closed down the studio 4 years ago when her husband died because she really doesn't have a clue. And she's always saying shit along the lines of bullshit that people a) don't know what she's talking about and b) don't really need to know.
And the studio itself was a fucking mess. Judy went out of town for a week and Laura and I had enough, so we decided to clean that place up and throw out everything that we didn't need. We made that place look so much better than it was. There was a big rather ugly blue backdrop in the middle room that laura and I were sick of looking at, so we took it down. We weren't going to be needing it anytime in the near future. We also had a lot of shit on a table for Judy to go through and decide what to keep and what to throw out. So instead of doing just that, she puts that fucking backdrop back up to hide said table. She doesn't do anything. Just hides things behind backdrops.
One one day about 4 weeks ago, on a monday, on my way out for the day, she decides that's the perfect time to tell me that I'm being cut back to one day a week. She couldn't tell me this before the past weekend, she had to tell me as I was leaving for the day. Thank you fucking much. It really would have been nice to know much sooner so I could update my availability at Best Buy and get more hours there sooner instead of two weeks after being cut at the studio (since schedules are made two weeks in advance at best buy). So I've been working more hours at best buy which is fine with me since I enjoy it more there plus, oddly enough, I get paid more. Guess how fat my paycheck at the studio was last week. Eight hours... $51. How awesome is that?! >_<
I've decided that once things do pick up again at the studio and I'm working 4 days a week again, I'm going to work mornings so I can still work as much as possible at Best Buy.
Thus concludes my rant on that... for now.
My Grandma Kellman has been on her way out. I don't know what more to say on that. She's been fading. We don't know how long it's going to be though, which can be hard, especially since my parents and I are planning on leaving for Florida on the 20th and coming back March 1st.
My birthday's coming up and I've pretty much decided that I really don't want anything. Unfortunately there's a couple people who won't take that as an answer and insist I tell them what I want. Sorry, I can't tell you what I want when there's nothing to tell you that I want. Nothing in your price range, anyways.
I'm getting excited for the 2009 baseball season to begin. I've been having some withdrawals. I need me some Tigers baseball.
On a similar yet different note, I've gone driving around a few times and have found myself driving by Tiger Stadium. I found it rather fascinating when I realized that what's left of the stadium is part of the original structure of Navin Field (Before it became Briggs Stadium, before it became Tiger Stadium). So this spring I'm driving back out there and taking a picture from Michigan Ave. to do a little before and after with an image I found of Navin Field taken in 1934.
