Alternate reality; now with 100% more 'Eric'.

Apparently I've been living in a hole for the past month or however long it's been. Communication's been tough, the work has been much, the games are many and I'm incredibly lazy.



My jobs are getting a kinda stale. It's come to the point where I really need to decide on which job to drop. I want to start making up portfolio mail outs, websites and all that but working as I am now I have no time whatsoever.

Do I keep the Wesley job;
• 2-2.5 hrs daily driving time.
• Bunch of annoying students
• Doing admin work that I'm not so trained in
• Sometimes I sit there and have no idea what I'm doing!!!
• Includes stuff that I have to take home (sometimes)
• Have to wake up super super early
• I don't think I'm the right person for the job at all... :S
but
• Nice environment
• Working with people in the industry
• Learn bunches of stuff
• Cool people

or the Servo job?
• Can be boring as all hell
• Customer can be stupid
• Takes away my my Thurs & Fri nights (currently)
• The work has nothing to do with what I studied for
but
• Chilled out environment
• Cool people
• Some locals/regulars are awesome
• Just down the road
• I just rock up and work - I don't have to take it home with me
• Chance for bit more flexible shifts
• SLEEP IN! (to like 8am, which is awesome)

I know most people would think that I'm crazy for even thinking of leaving the Wesley job but there are just some days in that place where I really do not enjoy it. At least the Caltex job is consistent. I know what every shift will be. Sure there are variations but for the most part, I just know exactly what my shift will be like tomorrow. So yeah, I don't know. Help?

I also had to work a 13.5hr shift on Monday, this week and next. One of the girls had to have an operation and to save my boss from working two 12 hr shifts in a row (as she normally does one every week or so) I said I'll help cover it.

Unfortunately I just had the crappiest Monday ever. I'm talking the worst. It wasn't so much the Monday itself, it was more everything culminated into one big ball of pus from (mostly) the weekend and exploded Monday night. My brother and I had a crazy fight again, all because he's too damn precious to take some rubbish out. He said some things to me and went too far. I slapped him across the face hard, Hollywood rage style. It's weird how Alex is the only person who can really get me angry and sad like that. Sure, the friggin' diva deserved it, but that doesn't mean that I should have hit him like that.

I was really sad after that. We are not going so well right now it's terrible living in the same house as him. Stress of work and my lack of direction has also been nagging me. I need to get on with stuff you know? I want to design blah blah blah I said it before.

For some stupid reason, the thing that completely set me off was Monday night before job #2. I was brushing my teeth when I discovered my cute little lip ball piercing thing had fallen out. I don't know why but I just started bawling my damn eyes out. Mum comes in to see if I'm ok and I just keep on crying, over a stupid little piece of jewellery! I looked like a complete wreck, even more so when I realised I was going to be late for work. Then I got even more upset about being late gsljhfskjghs fkg -_- I'm menopausal I swear!

Once I got into work, I chilled out and calmed down. But yeah, Monday was awful. No ten dollars for me.

I'd like to believe it was all due to me missing out on Bad Taste Monday video night. It was weird that it didn't happen. I miss it greatly. One more week and we can get cracking again and my wonky timetable can go back to semi-almost-normal. I also have the perfect movie for us to see too. Be thrilled guys.

Also, first wedding for me on this weekend! I did go to one when I was crazy little so the memory's a little fuzzy but I am so hyped for Saturday. Recycling an old dress I wore to my Mum's 50th (looks so much better on me now than it did 5 years ago) I saved a bunch on not buying something that I'm going to only wear once. Awesome. Buying their pressie tomorrow or Friday.

In other, incredibly random and please don't tell my parents yet because they'll probably start calling all the family and planing some wacko destination wedding news, I have a 'date' of some sort this Sunday. Very uncharacteristically (gawd that's a longer word that I thought) of me I know.

But I'll just let that sink in for a moment... Yeah.

I mean dude, how did this happen?! What strange parallel universe of Kathryn have I stepped into now? xD Anyway it was rather unexpected considering when we last saw each other I was dancing in a club and on a train with a pink floral umbrella. Maybe it's all part of my charm (hah!). Some of you may know/indirectly know him actually. But we'll see how it goes. Don't know if I want to jinx this just yet...

I am also no joking this time either. Don't panic :P

Just got back from soccer practice. It's been cancelled for the forth week in a row so Coach booked us an indoor game instead so we don't forget how to play. I've never done it before but it was so much fun. It'd be a bummer if we miss out again this week. I love the rain and all, but it'd be nice if it just let up when we had to play.

I'm going to head off to play Majesty 2 now. Steam had it on sale for $7.50US. What a BARGIN.

long post is long, weird, soccer, the real world, eric, life in general, work
