Thin Privilege posted:Needed a new bookshelf so I went to IKEA. BILLY used to be 50 lb but it’s now 80 lb. Some random dude helped me get it in my car but now I can’t get it to my apartment myself. I’m gonna ask if one of the maintenance guys can help me but there’s no guarantee they will help me. Maybe they can at least put the elevator on hold so I can sloooowly carry this stupid thing. I can easily lift 50 lbs but 80 is a bit much currently cause I haven’t lifted at the gym for a long time. Same but my weights are 275 and 350

I had a picture of the schedule before it was officially posted, and thought I opened this morning. I'm supposed to work at 3, not 8.

I thought I had a bottle of tea in the fridge but apparently I drank the whole thing and I didn’t turn on my hot water boiler so it’s gonna be at least 20 min before I can make tea. I guess I could microwave it but the taste isn’t the same and I can’t run both at once because my house has very bad wiring and it’ll blow the circuit breaker.

I always have Sundays and Mondays off, although next week I'm taking Tuesday and Wednesday off as well due to minor surgery on Tues because this summer has been insanely busy and we're all super exhausted, especially me because I'm really sick right now. I was looking forward to my 4 day weekend, but they scheduled me for Monday! I haven't worked a Monday in almost 2 years!

I don't work any days right now!  I had a job interview today, and I think it went really well but I'm afraid to talk about it or I might jinx it, and all day long I've been thinking up answers I should have said to some of the interview questions.  I have another potential job opportunity at another place, where I would actually prefer to work, but it really depends on whether or not senior management decides to go ahead with a certain project, and my contact asked me not to talk about it until he gets the go ahead. I think I'm going to turn into a giant neutron star of anxiety if I don't hear back from someone, literally anyone, about a job this week. It's even more stressful because some of my former coworkers got hired at some places I applied to, and oh god I'm terrible and unemployable aren't I..

My alarm is so annoying and that’s worked so far to wake me up, though I have to set multiple alarms to actually get me to wake up cause I hit stop/snooze a lot; but, in the past few days I’ve just been literally shutting off my phone to stop the drat thing. I have to wake up today to move my car cause of street cleaning. This wouldn’t normally be an issue but they’re supposedly “repairing” cement or some poo poo on my garage—and I haven’t seen them doing poo poo other than put up signs— for a week so, while I have an actual parking spot in the city, I have to park on the street like a POOR PERSON. I’m obviously joking, I got this spot craaaaawwzy cheap cause it was a foreclosure and it’s the worst spot in the garage but whateves about that part. But I guess that’s a FWP as well: I have the worst spot in the garage. Ugh my eyes are so puffy I look like a crack head and I can’t wake up but I have to move my car ughhhhhh gently caress you city I don’t even know wtf you’re cleaning. This is probably incomprehensible due to my being so incredibly tired. Oh also I have poorly treated insomnia but I’m tired of going to doctors because of a) American doctor/medicine costs and b) I’m think I’m starting to look like a drug addict to everyone, doctors included, cause I have to take so much. Sorry I’m super sick, guys! E: it really sucks to be told you’re probably lying by a doctor when you’re telling them literal symptoms that you’re having. And then having to pay minimum $75 copay for being told this. Thin Privilege has a new favorite as of 12:28 on Aug 9, 2018 |

The office got a bunch of free lunch for the team, but almost nobody came in today because of two different functions happening on the same day. I've been eating pizza and sandwiches all day, and now I have to try to bring home a shitload of leftovers.

This morning, when barely awake in that daze of gotta pee and wake up, my mom told me she found an empty chicken styrofoam sleeve in the backyard. And then a full one, with drumsticks, which we don't buy. Also in the backyard, like someone had chucked it over the fence. Thankfully the dogs were inside due to the monsoon last night, but now I'm loving paranoid someone was trying to poison our dogs or some thief is trying to case the place. It wasn't that windy last night. The empty sleeve possibly blew in from garbage cans, but a full 10 pounds of thawing rotten drumsticks did not. Also there were NO ants on the package, so for being out overnight, that is freaking wrong.

Someone broke the bluetooth speaker I bought for work on my day off because I was nice and let others use it when I wasn't there. So I had to buy a new one because I'm too stubborn to listen to the radio. Radio sucks.

Update on my concert sweater issue: I got there on the second night early enough for them to have them in stock! So I got one. ...but it was $100 (that’s bad  )...but it’s super nice and embroidered! (That’s good!) ...but it contains potassium benzoate (that’s bad)

The super thick ones, not like some woven poo poo. I lived in Memphis for 30 years, so yes, super hot. A quarter inch of snow shuts down the entire city. We'd get T-shirts, windbreakers, and hoodies if we were lucky. Hats, too, though, so many hats. Sweaters at a concert are just... weird to me. I don't even remember seeing sweaters at the Billy Joel / Elton John concert.

One time I bought a combination lighter/bottle opener with the band's logo on it at a show, and it ran out of fuel a week later. I've seen bands selling jackets, hoodies, thermals, button-down shirts, even a couple thrifted suits from Goodwill. One band even had ashtrays. Never sweaters.

Just got back from camp. I'm super tanned, which is unusual for me (I have extremely light skin so I usually burn myself before I get tanned). Now I have weird tan lines (always wore shorts + a t-shirt, plus an activity tracker on my left wirst), and I don't have any makeup that matches my tanned skin colour
