sigh

I am beginning to repair my financial situation. Settled one account, and am on a payment plan for another. The last one seems to have disappeared-was probably sent to a collections bureau, but don’t know where. Anyway. My particular form of self sabotage has always sort of been of the financial kind, but I am encouraged by how relatively easily I have been able to sort this stuff out.

I hadn’t any hopes of resolving any of this stuff today. Today threw the first punch in the form of a facebook message from a friend and former coworker. She’s a union organizer at my old store, and is not taking the news of my coming promotion (assuming it even happens) very well at all. I can’t help but think that things work themselves out for a reason, but am a bit hurt that she has now decided to take my promotion so personally, when she can hardly be bothered for anything not Union-related any more.

On a side note, I cannot, for the life of me, find my flash drive. Ce n’est pas bon.

Anyway. I had refrained from saying so for several weeks, but this has certainly been a season for finding out who my friends *actually* are.
