The pay better be good.
For fuck’s sake, why can’t anything go the way it’s planned? I know it’s just a fact of life, but I’ve only been in this fucking house for 32 hours, and I’m already going insane.
You see, it’s not just one thing or another, it’s ten things all stacked up at once. First and foremost is the internet. It sucks here in the first place, I knew it going into this obligation, so though unfortunate, it’s nothing to complain about. The problem is that not only is it slow, but it’s fickle and irritating. I tried uploading some pictures I took via a RAR on megaupload, and the file is pretty big, so the upload too like 2 hours. At the end, at 99%, the file stopped dead….and refused to go any farther. Not wavered, I tried it again, this time it was an hour and a half later, and it froze at 78%....about 4 hours of waiting, and NOTHING to show for it.
What-the-fuck-ever….
So, on top of that, I recently got hired by an online friend to keep and maintain his forums, as well as deal with customer services, complaints, and questions. So, I try to go to the site, and apparently it’s blocked here! I WORK for this company, it’s incredibly important that I do my job. Well, I was talking to the boss about this, and he had me go through all the steps to find out why I couldn’t access the site, and apparently the ISP is cutting me off from redundant bandwidth, in an attempt to keep the total bandwidth limit down, or some retarded fucking shit.
So, the internet sucks, and I can’t get on the ONE site that’s actually important….
Then, pissed off because of this, I whip out my Playstation so I can play some games or watch a movie. I plug it in, turn it on, and turn the TV on. It’s not on the right channel, no problem. I just have to get the remote and….where’s the remote? I look high and low, there’s NO fucking remote! Without it, I can’t watch anything but a salt-and-pepper fight. Seriously, I took apart that entire cabinet looking for it, I looked all over the kitchen, living room, dining room, and even the bedrooms…no remote.
No remote means I Can’t use the TV. That means no games, no movies. Add that to poor internet, and that’s 2.5 things out of 3 gone….
So, I think “no problem, I’ll just call someone over to keep me busy! Maybe we can go to a movie! There’s a theatre in Brantford, and I have a gift card!”
WRONG!
I wasn’t shown the keys, so I can’t leave the house.
Well hey, gotta look on the bright side of life, right? At least I have the new years party! Wait, no, all the people I invited can’t come! My brother can’t because my mom’s being a lazy bitch, and is using the “oh, but he has friends coming over” excuse. Demias, Cyrakhis, and Brian all have plans, as well as their significant others. Cole and Tristan are the only ones left, and they were only ever maybes.
No internet, no TV, no Movies, no games (except my PSP, which rocks, Ratchet is an awesome game!) and no access to the outside world. no freedom, nothing.
All I can do is masturbate….a lot. And even that gets boring fast.
And to make matters worse, last night as I was lying down, ready to go to bed, talking to my friends, the power went out. Now, call me paranoid, but the people who live here are pretty well-off, and have been robbed in the past multiple times. The weather wasn’t bad, so I saw no good reason for the power to suddenly go out. (no storm or anything.) needless to say, I was a little freaked out, my mind was running wild with possibilities. Plus it didn’t help that the dogs were barking at the wind, making me think someone was out there.
I got almost no sleep last night, as the power kept flickering…and I didn’t get power back until something like Noon. Needless to say, I was unhappy, freaked the fuck out, and angry.
So, here I am, tired and pissed off, can’t do pretty much ANYTHING, nobody here to keep me busy. I think, to treat myself, I’m going to use the credit card number she gave me to buy myself pizza and wings. At least she DID say I could do that. (she was very adamant that I could order pizza as much as I wanted, and was sure to include wings in that deal.)
At least I got one good thing today: a friend showed me a sketch she’s working on, and it looks fucking badass! She also did a naga, and I kid you not, a got llama girl! She rules so much!
