Shock, surprise: Ramblings on a Thursday...
Excuse the gaps as always, but I've not been able to get to the store to get online, and my budgetary analysis dictates I don't get internet access on my own yet.
This is really peeving off the roommate, which is almost planned. His whole world revolves around the internet (gee I wonder why the electric bill was so high), and he would fake illness, depression, or a body funk until I got off the computer. Now I recall being selfish in my youth, but to go to great dramatics like that for a 40-year old man is plain hysterical. I just wish it was taking place on a theater stage where he could win a Tony for it.
I am also getting tired of playing messenger boy between the two people in question who can't get along now. Their problems (strictly financial) are between the two of them, but I've been caught in the crossfire, which has my financial situation on a shoestring. Ignorance is bliss, so I should just turn a deaf ear. If only this world wasn't about money... see what it's destroyed so far?
... Work is getting very stressful again, and once more I made the request to go back to day shift. They are really working me hard out there and I barely get up in time to go in the next day. On days, the pace was more controlled, and I didn't have to be shuttled everywhere. My left wrist is really bothering me now to the point I can't lift heavier bags with it anymore. As short as we are over there, though, I can't afford to break down yet.
... Under the title "Sometimes It Begins With The Smile" I authored some two months back, I wrote about a redhead named Lisa who works near me. We've grown to be excellent friends, something you can't have too much of. We got to talking last week and I once again made reference to the one girl I had truly loved. At Lisa's suggestion, I wrote a letter which is still pending a stamp, and hopefully it will be on its way by the weekend. Lisa's currently on the "hate men" phase, but suggested if I could wait... goose bumps, goose bumps!
Yet, never underestimate the value of friendship. I only wish it could affect certain people more quickly than the average one.
P.S. The title refers to my need to get out of my situation as quickly as possible (for those without Star Trek as a life influence).
