Spring Season: Weeks 25/26
Aug. 31st, 2020 03:00 pmOOF. I'm honestly not sure if the last few weeks have been extra bad, or if I'm just getting whinier. Who can say!! But this week has been brutally long, no sleep, stress eating, work stupid, brain stupid, world stupid, blergh!!!
Work is bullshit. Haven't gotten a credit memo since Wednesday, so when they DO come in, I get to somehow juggle four days of work at once while dealing with month-end, thanks bitch in Calgary who can't do her fucking job. I HAD ALL WEEKEND WITH NOTHING. Every customer annoys me, even the totally innocuous ones, every moron who rolls up telling me they're there to pick up "the '17 GMC" or whatever, LIKE YEAH, WE DEFINITELY HAVE JUST ONE OF THOSE HERE AT THE GMC DEALERSHIP, DUMB SHIT, MAYBE GIVE ME A NAME TO WORK WITH?? OH, "ROBERT", YEAH THANKS THAT'LL DO IT. It doesn't help that they replaced my bubble plastic with better bubble plastic that I can actually see through, but which people can't seem to actually HEAR through very well, so I either have to constantly repeat myself or just start yelling (shout out, however, to the woman who asked me to repeat myself three times before just answering "yes" to a question that was decidedly not a yes answer in the end, I FEEL YOU LADY, I pointedly just let it ride because it was DEEPLY RELATABLE). Phew. Okay. I am drowning in paperwork, it's fine, I'm Fine.
Aunts are visiting from Edmonton for the weekend, which I decidedly don't love seeing as that's the current 'rona hotspot in Alberta and they decidedly do not Get It, but whatever, not like I get a say in these things, and at least it finally served as the impetus to get my mother to clean her goddamn trash heap of a bedroom (or rather, pay someone else to clean it for her WHATEVER I'LL TAKE IT), so hopefully it'll be worth it in the long run and they won't kill my grandmother (their sister)! Also, they were gonna come next weekend then changed their mind to come this weekend, which on the one hand, feels like KIND of a slap in the face given that... they know my schedule, guess they didn't want to see much of me that badly, but also, the idea of spending half my week off entertaining family really doesn't sound like the reprieve that I need it to be so I don't ACTUALLY mind at all. All works out! MAYBE??? Except we just topped 20 active COVID cases for the first time ever, so hooray for that.
It was over 30 degrees a couple weeks ago! We got frost last night! Super cool that nature's all set to just flip the fucking summer switch off the instant September starts! I really love it a lot! Screaming forever!
Chadwick Boseman, man. I got nothing. To the movies!
( The Sacrifice, Nostalgia, The Spongebob Movie: Sponge on the Run, The Cruz Brothers and Miss Malloy, Losing Ground, Vice and Virtue, Variety, The Hands of Orlac, The Golem, Daughters of Darkness, Directed by Andrei Tarkovsky, The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, Destiny, The Transporter, Nosferatu, Sweetgrass, Caniba, Leviathan, The Skin, Metropolis, Tenet (no spoileys for that one, don't worry), Stop Making Sense )
People who just stand in front of automatic doors, making then constantly open and close while they hold a conversation instead of moving a few feet to either the left or right, are history's greatest monsters! Okay, bye!
