I love sleepless nights.
Of course by love I mean hate.
I have to be up for work in a much shorter amount of time than i'd actually like to admit, but I can't seem to clear my head tonight. So many thoughts, and all of them are good. I keep thinking about browsing apartments, moving out, the holidays. Turning freaking 22 in March (okay, maybe not ALL of them are good...). Where the heck did this year go? Still unsure of what boyfriend and I are doing for New Years, but i'm really excited for it even though everyone else will be out of town. After that we can actually start looking at apartments, at which point I think all of this will really sink in. Speaking of which, it's officially been a month today; my how time flies. I am SO excited to have my own place, with a kitchen that is MINE! I'm so ridiculous, but not having to share refrigerator or pantry space is going to be the highlight of my life. :p Pretty sure i'm more excited for that aspect than anything else. At some point i'm going to need to make a nice little list of essentials, considering when we move we really aren't going to have anything. I'm thinking kitchen and bathroom supplies, laundry detergent, things of that nature. :p A lot of, or at least some of it I plan on just asking for as birthday gifts since we will be moving right after. Essentially i've just been trying to save as much money as possible in the mean time. This will also mean "slightly before spring super cleaning extravaganza." I've got a lot of crap that needs dumping before I go anywhere. Pretty stoked for that as well.
So I must say for how much I despise working in the mall during holidays, I do love holiday tips. :)
Aside from that work is...going? For not hitting stupid retail goals i'm "suspended" at some point which is TBD in January. By suspended I mean "in work suspension" for 12 days. What the fuck, am I a little kid again? This is the stupidest thing i've ever heard in my life, but whatever. Working extra days will just mean more money, so I can suck it up and make due.
I found out a couple of weeks ago that my cat has cancer in her lower jaw. It's causing her to be unable to close her mouth fully, therefore contributing to excessive amounts of drool. To say that I am devastated is a vast understatement. The vet said she could refer me to a specialist and we could talk about "possibly amputating part of the lower portion of her jaw". Hell will freeze over before I do that though. So in the mean time I plan to cuddle with her excessively and monitor her eating. I switched her back to wet food and was told that when it gets to the point where she can't eat I will need to make a "quality of life decision", which is a fancy way of saying put her down. I've had this little fur ball since I was 5 years old, I don't know how the heck i'm going to make that decision. I guess it just comes down to not being selfish. I may want her around forever, but i'm not going to make her suffer because of it. So here's to the time we have left... <3
That's all for now. Hope everyone else is well. :)
