I worked 9 hours and 40 minutes today... roughly. I was physically exhausted when I went IN. As such, coming out I was afraid to sit down. And no, I did not make enough money to make it worthwhile. One manager is absent minded. The other? Oh, I am SO unhappy with him. I really intended to mention my frustration to him when I cashed out... but.... something something hospital.... something something IV&liquids.... somethingsomethingkidsbabysitterwanttoleave. FINE FINE I won't tell you how badly you pissed me off tonight. Even if it happened before you found out anything. RRrrrrrrrrrrrrRRRRRRRRRRRRRrr.
*cough*
All that nonsense aside, I may have mentioned it to him anyway except that in the past when I've been frustrated with him and tried to express it (even in a very roundabout way so as not to make matters worse) and all I get out of him is "I don't have any sympathy for youIHAVETHISTHISTHISTHIS". And I think, "dear, I just want you to pretend you care for just a moment. You're too new a manager to be such an asshat."
ohbutanyway
Life in the apartment has gotten interesting since Roommate's job ended. I can't say much but even that things get cleaned at weirder intervals is funny. There's a bit more tension. Aggravation. /sigh
Things I've learned about my car!:
+The radio is crazy. Some weird poltergeist must control it at this point.
+The ants are partly nocturnal. They don't come out until the heat of the day starts to pass. Then they come out in force. Must needs spray again.
+Sometimes he doesn't want to shift into fourth. I'm not really sure why.
+He prefers not to be in 1st if we're moving.
+He very much likes to react to my emotional state. If I'm unhappy he likes to die.
There's more but I just can't focus.
OH! He also survived a trip to Richmond. From Richmond to Indy (for the wedding we went East for in the first place). From Indy, through Richmond to Dayton. Back to Richmond. Back to St Louis. The entirety of the trip was a good way to get to know my car. It was a good way to change my pace so I didn't explode on anyone. A good way to remind myself that I'm more than just a server who doesn't (growl) deserve much of a tip. It was a much needed break, a wonderful visit, a great night of cards, and still full of regret that I couldn't do more. I still only got to see some people for about 10 minutes. We didn't play nearly enough Hand and Foot. But still so happy. (Congratulations, Mrs. C).
Simon hit 198k miles on that trip. We pretty well missed it. He hit 199k yesterday pulling into Borders' parking lot. I'm trying hard to pay attention so I don't miss 200k. I can't tell you how many people would be angry with me.
Mostly this post was to tell you that I'm alive. Life is survivable. In August we're moving out of this apartment (unless someone wants to move to st louis?) but that's all I know so far. It's starting to make me crazy.
I'll stop there. Let you quit reading :). I hope you all are well. Some of you I haven't heard from recently.....
Much love.
