:/ the place that i've worked for the past 3 years, where i've had a good paying job, with a cool boss, and really flexible hours, very suddenly went into liquidation today, without any warning. i am not a happy camper. boss says that he may have trouble getting me this past week's pay, and there won't be work for me for at least a few weeks (and maybe none at all, if he doesn't get things sorted out ok). he seems pretty positive that it'll pull through ok, but i'm not so sure. it was kind of a stupid job considering it wasn't going to go anywhere and didn't have anything to do with what i'm interested in, but i was comfortable there, and a good boss is bloody hard to find.
so, it looks like i'm going to have lots of down time coming up, which, to be honest, is really going to suck, because i haven't made a single friend down here (too much of a shut in), and the only person i really was talking to with any regularity very suddenly stopped speaking to me without explanation a few months ago (i don't really want to say any more than that about that particular situation, as it is a mutual friend to a number of people and i don't think i should air my dirty laundry in public). basically though, it just boils down to me being broke, bored, and alone. all of those things tend to leave me anxious, depressed, and prob. getting stomach ulcers from stress >.>;;;
i feel like i shouldn't even really be whining on about this here, but as previously stated, i don't have an actual person to whine to at the moment, so please excuse the angst and run on sentences, and anyone out there who chooses to listen or respond, thanks, it's nice to be reminded that there are actual people out there somewhere, even if i never get out my door to meet any.
p.s. the financial situation isn't catastrophically bad, as i can hopefully sell some handmade stuff in the art co-op my mom has some of her stuff in, it just isn't fun and i hate having to scrounge for every penny. the safety of a reliable paycheck was really nice, and i'm going to miss it.
