We have an apartment. Though I have no idea when the hell I'm going to help move because I work all the time. Today is my only off day this week. I picked up two extra shifts because holy crap I need the money.

I need the money because I Hate. Hate, Hate. HATE. Being without transportation. Being without transportation means being stuck. It means depending on my mother to drive me places, or at least going with me. Which means me wanting to die at least once during any given trip. It also means being stuck in my mother's house, with my crazy brother as my only means of sanity.

For me being stuck without a car is worse than being homeless. If I get drunkenly kicked out of the house I can at least sleep in my car.

Holy crap I hate being without transportation.

I'm going crazy in a hole, and being really stressed an sensitive. I've already gotten REALLY UPSET twice today, over relatively inconsequential things that just happened to do with transportation, and I almost never get upset.

I have another migraine and I think I left my Aleve at work.

My mother is thinking of getting me another car auction hunk-a-junk, but that'll be about a month from now by her estimate. I want transportation before then. I don't think I can take not having transportation for that long. It hasn't even been a week and I'm already losing it.

Also, I don't want to owe my mother my soul again.

On the up side, my job loves me. I won the dishwashers over first. They started asking my name and how I was. That means they like me. The servers then asked me out drinking with them. I should have gone for the sake of establishing myself with them, but definitely should not/could not have because I don't need to spend money, and don't have a ride. However, whenever I do get myself established with them, which will happen slower because I didn't take their first invitation of socializing, they may be willing to get me to work and back.

I actually won over the managers before the servers. Each one gave me the official talk of "we like you. you're staying right?" and asked me if I wanted to go into management, except the GM because he's the uber-boss and doesn't get impressed by much. I got "the power" and started handling the money after a week. A couple of the cooks have recently started smiling and half-assedly flirting with me, which means they like me. I haven't seen any sign from the prep people, but I don't interact with them much.

A couple of the other expos (that's my job title here) screwed me over last night, so I'm pissed at them, and generally frustrated with not knowing how to ring in to-go orders or properly use "the power" card. We always had to-go specialists and managers do those things in Roanoke.

I'm gonna go to bed now. Who knows when next I'll update? Certainly not me.
