Dear Journal,
Well, if this isn’t just a fine bag of fertilizer! It almost made the fertilizer hit the wind machine in my mind, however, it’s not something that can be helped I suppose. Seems the Boss is expecting to get called up for “duty ” in the near future and expects me to take on the responsibility of running the company while he is off doing his thing for the Regent. Just like he did when he took off for Pandaria and just like he did before that, I guess. I was having such a great day until he walked in and gave me that bit of news and I will admit that it put a major damper on my day. He did tell me that I should go ahead and hire an assistant to help me with things too because the thinks that I am getting overworked.
Overworked? That’s an understatement when I had to go to Shattrath and deal with that long-tailed arrogant Draenei that works for the Boss’s wife. I’ve got a feeling that she likes me almost as much as I like her too. Maybe she’s not so arrogant, she has to look down her nose at me anyway because I’m short, however, I don’t like the way she keeps shifting those hooves around when we’re standing near one another.
Well, it will mean more money and it will mean more time working my fingers to the bone to where I almost look like a Forsaken. It will also mean that I will get less time to spend with the family or even getting out in public to socialize a bit. Now, I know that the money is a good thing, however, I kind of enjoyed being able to get out and talk to people when I took that time off. I’ll do what I need to do to make the Boss happy, however, I think that we need to get more people – you know, managers for each of the warehouses, not just me doing all of it, it’s kind of getting to be more stressful even though we are showing a profit, I can’t do it all.
Uncle Zednick is starting to complain about the fact that he never gets to see me these days and he would like for us to start spending some more time together and Dooddah, well, she just looks at me and gets this sad look on her face. I think that she gets lonely and I know she misses the fun times that we used to have too.
I think I’ll talk to the Boss about my idea of getting more warehouse managers and I can hire someone to help with the books. Maybe that Adamia kid or someone else – she’s too flighty to be able to sit down at the desk and go through paperwork. I’ll start looking around to see what I can do and whom might be interested in working in the office at a flat rate rather than being out in the field working as a contract person – maybe I can find someone that I might be able to get along with. I wonder what happened to our cousin, the kind of weird mage person – I don’t really think she’s a mage either. I know that she made it off Kezan and got to Orgrimmar because I saw her, then, she just disappeared.
Anyway, I guess I’ll get over my surprise and disappointment with the way that things look like they are going because it hasn’t happened yet. I’ll just wait and see what goes on with this stuff. The Boss said he “might” get called up again, not that he had gotten called up.
Zippie
