I decided to update because I've been feeling down lately. I finally got around to applying for a few jobs yesterday. I should have done it sooner since I'd had the last 3 days off, but it's just one of those things that I always seem to forget about until the last possible second. I finally got a decent amount of hours from work. I'll be working the next 5 days in a rows, and it'll come out to just over 30 hours. Not great, but better than only working 20 hours a week. The last two paychecks have been less than stellar, and I'm getting very sick of having little if any spending money. Seems like every cent I earn goes towards bills. What little I do have to spend on frivolous things is usually gone within the first couple days after I get paid. If only there were part time jobs out there that paid really well. Really the only reason I've been looking for more full time work is because I'm tired of sitting at home all day with nothing to do. At least I would have money to spend if I was working full time, even if I still wasn't making more than 9 bucks an hour. I've been thinking about taking courses of some sort to help me find a better job. Maybe something like phlebotomy training. Problem is that I have no money to spend on these courses. Hopefully these 30 hour work weeks will stay consistent, that way I can save up some cash and start taking courses. My stomach is in terrible pain right now. A combination of junk food burritos and laxatives gave me horrible cramps during the night. They were so bad that I actually had a dream that I was going into labor and about to give birth in a hospital. It was freaky. I've heard of men having dreams where they're pregnant, but I never thought they could be induced by stomach pains. Hopefully the cramps will die down before I have to go to work tonight. I'm sick of my job too. I'm sick of starting work at 1am, and I'm sick of dealing with the pervs and junkies too. Most days I just go through the motions. I do just enough work to keep myself from getting fired. I just have to make it through a couple more weeks. Once I have some spending money I feel like I'll be able to get more accomplished in life. Ugh, I hate money.
