So, I'm trying to make myself less miserabe with being at home and not having a real job. I know, I know, be thankful I have a job in this economy, and really, I am. I'm just getting to that point with Roche Bros. where I'm ind that midset that I'm sick of it and totally ready to go back to school. Except umm... nope.
Basically I work for a family-owned chain of grocery stores, but I work for the main office, going to whichever store needs help (because of vacations, people leaving, etc) and helping out in the kitchen. Seriously, I can do everything except for the hot bar cooking because I've been doing this for so long. The only problem with this is that my commute can range anywhere form 20 minutes (yeah, I only worked at that store for three days) to over an hour (almost the entirety of this summer). I tend to work 40-48 hours a week so I have one day off to sleep and get all of my errands/appointments done. It just kinf od makes me miserable, and my current store just has a gorrible dynamic in the kitchen so it's not a fun place to work.
Anyway, in order to make myself feel better and have something to look forward to I am trying to go out and do stuff more. I was so much more social in college than I have ever been in Franklin. I'm going to try to take a Friday or Saturday night each week so that I can go out with my friends (which basically means going to Boston) who have all moved out of town or live there.
I think it's more of an adjustment moving home from college once you're finished than it was to start college in the first place. I spend a lot of time not knowing what to do with myself. Hopefully this will fix that, and in addition introduce me to some new people. Plus, I've got three concerts to look forward to, which will, sadly, probably be my last ones of the year.
So, starting this tonight by going to Brighton to visit Amanda. I have no idea what we're doing tonight, but we're going out and I am going to have a good time. Getting up for work tomorrow is going to suck, but meh, if work always sucks I guess I'll already be in the mindset, right? It's only eight hours. I can totally do that asleep on my feet.
