Thank Gawd for Friday…?

Sometimes it just doesn’t pay to chew through the leather straps in the morning.

I got up, in a fairly good mood, but a little late.  I quickly showered and got off to work with only a little fuss.  No comments, no snide comments, a good day…

Maybe…

Once I got to my desk I realized my entire department was on giggle-mode, and I got drawn in.

Then, after most of the day-shifters left, I realized I let one of my employees have the day off.  Normally no big deal, but then I realized I had a whole lotta updates/edits to do to our internal website.  (‘Cause I’ve only been working on these re-writes for a month or three, maybe I should focus and get them done…?)

So, all that gets set to the side and I take calls like a normal HelpDeskian, and that’s when my mind starts wandering.

I started thinking about things I really didn’t have the space in my mind to think about.

Giggle-mode plus Sudden-Desire-to-Work plus Re-route-of-Work-Effort makes for a scattered, emotional day.

Add to that I went to “my bar” (probably not mine for that much longer, the lines are being drawn,) and had to deal with stupidity.

After all them hours, I’m drained.  And I’ve drained about eight beers.

Thank Gawd it’s Friday?

I wish.  Now I have to deal with the “parental” figure (figuratively speaking) for two whole days while I save money to pay first-month and damage deposit on an apartment I haven’t even applied for yet, because I have no moneys, having spent all of it on a new warddrobe (since the last warddrobe consisted of Salvation Army purchases from 1993,) and basic necessities for an apartment, like an iron and a set of hangers.

Now this “parental” figure wants to blame me for the fact that I don’t want to talk to him, after I tried at least seven different times to talk to him for two months in November/December, and the only response I received was “I’m the Parent, Listen to What I Say!” or “I don’t talk about things!”, as well as other general arguments.  Now three months go by and it’s my fault I don’t engage in conversation?

And my love life is a complete mystery that I can’t make sense of, and most of confidances are going through difficulties of their own…

Can you say I really wish for a bus to hit me?

REALLY!

Greyhound!  Divert across me!!!

I haven’t posted for months because I don’t want to whine.  But now I’ve reached the limit.

I know how to fix things, I just have to wait for money.

Damnation.

Have fun, readers.  I’m going to lay low until the next two paychecks come through, then maybe I’ll have much better news.

I’ll try to keep posting, but that’s a maybe.

Skåll!!!

    :no: :sad:

    Sounds like a horrible time.

    Where’s the place you want? What’s the rent like? Let me know if you want to get together and chat. Call if you still have my number, as I likely won’t check email until late tonight and I’m out of town tomorrow (goin’ up Nort to see the family, dontchaknow).

    Hope your Saturday improves.

    GoA – I pretty much put it all out there (however grammatically odd it is,) but I appreciate the offer.

    Rent is in the $700-850 range.

    I haven’t picked, or even toured, a single place yet. I just know ballpark figure for what I need based on apartments that look pretty good, and what I have now isn’t half of what I need. Not even a quarter.

    Next paycheck will boost me up a bit. The paycheck after will give me enough to negotiate.

    I just have to wait. I hate waiting.
