Intresting Thursday.

Well Thursday turned out to be a day.

First the bathroom flooded, that made Jhodie late in combing my hair, then her morning job showed up and she asked for extra time. Then Nika, who was going with them since I was going to Nevis for a job interview, got her finger caught in the car door. That had screams for like 15-25 mins.

Then at 10:28am the power went out, and then came back 10:30am. It came back and I went to town to cash the check/money order that my friend sent me. It wasn't as much as I was kinda expecting, but I'm happy I got anything at all. I then got to town to find out that I won't be getting any of the money for 4-6 weeks. Anything that says personal anything and coming from a bank that isn't here will take that long.

So I had to wipe the last $40 from my account so I could pay the ferry. I was suppose to go over early to stop off at Lynn's house to test her computer with a different monitor cord, but it turns out that all my cords are attached to the monitors.

So I went over on the 11:30am ferry. I wanted to walk around the town a bit and get to the place early incase I got lost or something. I couldn't walk as much as I wanted because my foot was hurting me from a very crammed bus ride I took a few days before when I was coming back home with Nika from the Bay for a little dip. It wasn't that great of an experience, but Nika liked it all the same.

Either which way, I went to a store to look for some bread that Jhodie wanted, not that I could get them when I thought about it since I didn't have the extra money like I thought I would, so I ended up just getting a bottle of water since I hadn't eaten anything for the day and it was better than getting something to eat and not having enough money to wash it down on such a hot day.

I found a bus stop, and just wanted for a decent time to flag down a bus. Just before I got one I asked a lady where I could find Clear Harbor, that was the name of the company. She told me it was in, or on, Brown Hill. Lynn told me to go to Gingerland. I asked the lady if Brown Hill was before or after Gingerland. It was before she told me. Where was Lynn sending me? Lucky me a bus pulled up that had written on it that it was going to Brown Hill, and the lady said to tell the driver where I wanted to go. But in the end I didn't have to. The girl in the front of the bus was going there too. I got there like 8 mins after 1pm. I was way early. Which turned out to be in favor in the end.

I had like three test to take, then I was taken to two different sections that I was being considered for, or applied for and then I had an interview with a lady that seems to really like. In the end, it sounded as if I had a job once my references paned out. But now I have an issue. I should have brought it up when I heard her say it, but for some reason I didn't.

Contract. I'm suppose to be leaving for NY soon, or at least Barbados I know that at Ross I could just have taken my 3 weeks off and at least go to Barbados, then just transfer to FL or NY, but now.... I don't think they would let me go just when they got me. I'll have to call them and find out on Monday.

Well, when it was all over it well after 4. I got a lift down to the port, which was a good thing since I didn't remember the distance from the main road being so far away. Most places seem to be set away from the main road. Even in town, some places a little set back from the street. As you go further out, you leave the main road well behind. I'm going to so need a map of that place. By the time I walked over to buy my ticket it was 10 till 5pm.

I got the same boat back that I got that morning. They had a dvd player on the boat down below where I sat. There is no way I'm sitting up top. Well it was interesting. It was local talent. Some guy from Jamaica and his variety show. I took a nap over and I tried to take a nap back, but it wasn't as good. I don't like boat rides.

I got to St. Kitts, got a bus, and came home. The bathroom was still drying, but the toilet seems to be flushing now.

Then Friday came. Jhodie had to pool just about every dime to pay off cable to keep them from cutting us off. Then we ran out of gas that night just as dinner was finishing. Lucky us. At lest we would have something to eat that night and part of Saturday. We had some money to buy dinner Saturday night, but right now we are at a loss. Well my sister just changed the plan. She'll just buy food until she has enough to get a tank on Tuesday. She was waiting for Little Ray to bring by the money that he owes her, but he's taking his dear time.

There was on very big surprise yesterday. Jhodie's computer came back to life. We all thought that the hard drive was toast. But low and behold Jhodie turns it on while we were in another short black out, and it stayed on. The power was out for around an hour or so. Anyway, my sister turned it on just to watch it cycle she said. Crash, reboot, crash, reboot and so on. But it really turned on and logged her in and such. She was able to get off her stuff that she thought she lost. Then the OS really crashed, and I reinstalled it. Shame I don't have a valid copy. I just don't get any thing new from MS. I can do that.

Ok.. I'm going to save this and then spell check and post later. I don't want to go over this right now. See ya.
