They gave the promotion to some asshole who was hired November 2016. I met him when he was hired but he's so boring and pathetic that I never bothered getting to know him. Now he's going to be my supervisor. He came around the office today to say hello to everyone. He only paused at my desk because I "know" him. I reminded him that I don't actually know him at all. He said he would be back next week to ask me for help. He doesn't officially start until early April. I already want to smash a coffee pot in his face. Admin considered him more qualified than I am for the fucking job and now this asshole expects me to help him? DUDE. GO EAT A BOWL OF DICKS.

Renewing my lease in a few days. This will be 14 or 15 years living in an apartment the size of most bedrooms. I browse rental websites sometimes to see what my options would be if I moved. Not great. I should definitely take better care of this place.

I decided against telling JR I'm in love with him. There's no point.

Dozens (hundreds?) of cities hosted peaceful protests over the weekend to demand meaningful gun control legislation. The gun nuts think that means nobody will have any guns, because of course when alcoholics have breathalyzers on their cars it means nobody else can drive and if crazy people can't vote then nobody can vote. That's how conservative logic works.

I'm still seething about not getting that fucking promotion. I was going to buy flowers for the secretary who got passed up, too, but she's planning a destination wedding this summer. She has a fiancee and a big family that loves her. She'll be fine. I'm out here by myself and my rent just went up. I really need that fucking money.
