Vacation all I ever wanted...

Jun 22, 2014 19:58

Today is the last day of my week vacation. The whole thing was pretty uneventful and frankly incredibly boring. Monday I did nothing, Tues I went and visited a friend in Minneapolis, Wed I went to a movie (22 Jump Street, super funny), Thurs I did nothing, Friday I had lunch with a friend but that was it. The weekends were also pretty uneventful. The first Saturday I did parade of homes, which took up a decent chunk of the day. Today I spent the day with my friend and her family on their cabin vacation. But the other 2 weekend days I did nothing. It's not like I don't want to do stuff, there's just nothing to do that I feel like doing by myself. Nobody wants to go on road trips to various destinations alone. The drive is boring because you just sit there and drive. And once you're wherever you're going, you might go to a zoo or museum or something, but think about it. If you walked around those places by yourself, would it be fun? You have nobody to talk to about what you are seeing/doing and share that experience with. You go out to eat by yourself and while you're waiting for food, you just sit there because there's nobody to converse with. People stare at you too, especially if it's a nice, sit down restaurant, you can trust me on that one.

So yes, vacation wasn't the best, but it was still time off work and I hate work so it's nice to be away. Unfortunately it is ending and now I have to go back and deal with shit I don't want to deal with. I just wish I could quit and try to find something that will make me happy, like my last job did. But you have to have income to live and as long as I'm working, I'll never be able to find anything new that I like. So it's kind of a lose-lose situation. Such is life, not like anyone really likes their job anyway. I just feel grateful that I have friends like my friend Alisha, who invite me to their family vacations, holidays, birthday parties, etc and make me feel like part of their family. Without her, it would be really difficult to deal with my issues.
