bluegreen17 | biographical stuff

i'm a shy person but when i was in college during a summer,i worked at a department store. the first summer i work in the stockroom out back,so i could hide. the next summer they wanted me to learn the cash register. i wasn't thrilled,but it was probably one of the best things that happened to me. i learned to be professionally outgoing. actually,i am both outgoing and introvert,but anyway i learned a lot of how to deal with the public,which has helped me muchly over the years.

i just got a toshiba laptop. i've wanted a computer for years but have had to make do with webtv/msntv and trips to the library. but i finally put a computer on a credit card. i couldn't stand being computerless anymore. i love the stuff. i'm teaching myself the basics,though i ask my sister questions...

i really wanted to get a mac because my sisters love theirs,but they were just a bit too pricey for me. i've retired early,at the age of 50,due to a disability which i am working to heal somewhat (clinical depression...) and may or may not go back to work someday. so i have a fixed income. i am grateful for having a chance to get better. i was getting suicidal so i finally took a medical leave from my job. it's gonna take a while,so i'm on social security disability for now. okay,probably tmi and i'm babbling.
