I'm trying to find a car. If anyone knows anyone trying to sell a car... I need it. I have $2000 to spend on it (though I'd like to have something left over to pay loans) so it'll have to be a junker but it just needs to get me from job to job.
Been looking on Craigslist... and found buying a car involves calling people I don't know. I HATE calling people I don't know.
Been doing it anyways. Feels like I'm prank calling people.
Anyways, got a talking to about my tardies at work. What's really annoying is I'm not really in control at the moment of what time I get to work. I could be standing at the door waiting but if my ride of the day wants to dink around then they can dink around. No skin off their backs. What's even worse is my bus option doesn't run on weekends, after 7pm or before 7am.
Hence why I need a car.
Been feeling really left out lately. Laura and Anna are pretty much my only outside of work social group right now... besides WoW people... and I've just been so pissed at them. I play that game to have fun, kill boredom, and they've decided because I don't have enough "initiative" they don't even want to be in the same vent channel as me anymore and instead of just coming out and saying so they've been playing these stupid games of switching channels the second I start talking.
I left the guild and to be honest I don't think I really feel like going back if that's the way they deal with things. They might be little kids but I have a life and work and I'd like to do more than just hulk out about how 1347 my gear is or how I just p0wn3d that huntard lawlz.
It kind of hurts that Skylar was one of those people, since he used to be such a good friend and is still dating Heidi... but there isn't much I think I can do about it if he wants to act like I'm diseased. He said he'd like to talk about things (according to Heidi... though it's rare he ever does anything other than say 'well she needs to get over it and grow up') but after someone tells you they don't want to hear your voice where can things go? Especially when it's coming from a person you haven't even seen for the past year or two. All he is to me as of late is this online name that doesn't even say anything to me outside of raids. Should I even care about things then?
I did care for a bit. I got my gear score up to about 2900 so I could raid with everyone since it was the only time it seemed we were all in the same damn channel. I was doing so well too... putting out alright damage. Little did I know they were just hating me more and more the more time I spent with them. I thought I was helping out while at the same time being helped... but I was just being an inconvenience in their eyes.
So a couple nights ago I wanted to know two things from Skylar... firstly why I wasn't an officer yet. I'd been with the guild since it started, and really liked helping out the RPers or the lowbies to get quests done, or even help the lower geared 80s get better gear. Raiding to me was, I guess, only a tool to allow me to help them get through things faster in the end. I even would go off with the members of the guild that also felt ignored and hang out... like Gajah and Anna and sometimes Stelson. The people more like myself who played the game just for fun. The people I doubt Skylar even knows have their own vent channel or what that vent channel is.
The reply from him was because I didn't have the initiative he felt it took, and that I don't listen to a "fucking" thing anyone else says... though I'm certain he was just referring to the raiders since I could say the same thing about him and the non-raiders.
I also wanted to know why they (he, Langara, and his real life friend Gnashan) continuously left whatever channel I was in without so much as a goodbye, and he replied it was because after last night (the previous night we'd raided together) he just didn't want to hear my voice anymore.
That's when I quit the guild that started out 2-3 years ago just being a bunch of friends goofing around, had a breakdown, and Heidi took me out for ice cream. I found out that not only do my hands go numb when I hit that... you know... great moment... but also when I'm really fucking mad or sad.
I'd say I didn't give a damn and I'd just play somewhere else with friendlier less virtually egotistical ham-necked people (like the Bloodfang was) if he wasn't dating Heidi.
That reminds me, I should stop my subscription before it charges me for another month.
