The Good & The Bad

tarotgalWell...
I headed over to former boss' house today during lunch (two traffic lights down from where I work now) to check on dogs. I found:
-Things for me to file
-An unsealed envelope with no zip code or return address
-A Rx he (I assume) wants me to send to his mailorder pharmacy for him
-A note with phone numbers
-A Bush quote
-$40 (huh? Why does my boss keep giving me $40 in cash whenever I pet sit for them? I charge $40 A DAY, which means we just have to deduct that when it comes to paying me when they get back, which complicates things *sigh*)
-Another note saying that his son INSISTED they take the laptop with them on the trip.
Damn. I was counting on having it this weekend to work on. Not just my stories and such, but actual work. I was going to fix the website and submit calendar postings to various mediation sites. But I can't do that if he took the documents and the FTP settings with him. Soooooo I don't have to work this weekend! Whoohoo! LOL
I also found, unfortunately, his house painter. FUCK!
This guy is soooooooooo note my type and keeps hitting on me for some freakish reason. He keeps asking me to call him so we can go out clubbing (I don't dance and I don't drink). he keeps offering to take me out to Mexican restaurants (I HATE Mexican food). And every time I see him he kisses my cheek hello- which would be delightful if I actually LIKED the guy. But he always talks to me like I'm 10 and won't stop smiling and won't listen to what I have to say. He's, like, my polar opposite, too. He loves singing and dancing, he hates the cold and loves the sun, he doesn't even have a GED (which I don't hold against him but we totally have nothing to converse about, I've discovered after at least twenty discussions), he has tons of girls he goes out with and even has two children with one of them (though they're in another country so he rarely sees them).
And then he asks if I'll be here tomorrow and I have to say that I will and he gets all happy because he'll be back then. ARG! So instead of a quiet day housesitting in my PJ's I have to get up and get dressed early and spend the day fending him off. DRAT!
Maybe it won't be so bad...
I'm going to order pizza now. And pay for it using the weird cash boss left me *sigh*
I'm also going to have to start using code terms for my various works, because I'm getting confused.
Work #1= original part-time job
Work #2= company that acquired work #1
Work #3= company run by the same boss who runs work #2 but the two companies aren't related
Work #4= my new, lovely job
