The winter blues hit me tonight and I'm feeling a bit depressed. One of the catalysts was that a friend told me she was pregnant, which makes me feel worse about myself (that it made me depressed - of course I didn't tell her that). She was going to be one of my travel buddies for Gov Ball, which now leaves just me and my ex girlfriend going.
Have a heart, you wankers. I don't have a giraffe, I have a house cat.
When we moved to Carson City, we had two dogs, one of which was over 50 pounds. We had like 2 choices of places to live.
When we found out we were moving here, we had three dogs. It was one of the big factors in our decision to buy a house because we didn't think we would be able to find a decent rental that would let us keep all of them.

It's pretty ridiculous. I understand they assume we have demon creatures, but isn't that what a pet/security deposit is for?
If we were in a position to buy something we definitely would. I'm not pleased with the whole rental situation at the moment.

omg I feel your pain. I wanted to get a dog soooo badddd when I was moving into my current place last fall, but there were NO affordable apartments that allowed dogs in the area I wanted to live. I had to decide to try and be patient and go to a dog-less place. it sucks.
I wish you luck! you'll find something! apartment hunting is stressful as hell. and so competitive it's ridiculous.
crazykittensmile, I'll kick a kid out of their bedroom & y'all can have it, if you move here. And I won't charge you anything for your cats. Think about it, OK?
Taking about rent, I let this guy move in during Sept, and for some reason I didn't write a contract. (It was my first time ever being in that situation.) Man, it's becoming a nightmare, he's paid a third of his rent for JANUARY and legally I can't force him to leave until I give him a legal 3 day notice then go back to the courthouse for a 15 day evac notice. I really hate my kindness being taken advantage of. Wish I could have one of y'all take his place!
Okay life. I get it. I swear these last 2 months have been a constant test at my patience. I deal with it though, but after today I just need a mini vent.
So luckily I heard about quick change schemes at my old job in AZ because one just totally happened to me. Dude threw so many numbers at me at so little time that my head is still swimming. No serious, my brain has been in jumbles since it happened. It was halfway through the transaction before I realized what was happening and I'm not sure how much, if any, money he got out of me. I feel so used. This is constant in my life it seems, my kindness coming back to bite me. I couldn't hear numbers again for some time after and it got so bad that I had to get off the register. It's just frustrating. It's funny because there was another guy on the register and this happened right after I told him I'd take it so he could get some side work done. Better me than him I suppose.
After all this I call the guy who was supposed to close tonight and asked him what time he was coming in because I had a feeling...which was confirmed...because he didn't realize he had to work tonight and it out of town. Of course. How....why.....how is it that you don't call and ask what your schedule is? So I had to try and rush and get the shift covered and yadda yadda. I won't even get into my on going car troubles.
So yeah. There is my vent for the day. Thanks for reading.

I'm sorry Token. I had someone do the quick change thing on me once when I was a server (and like 16....). After I realized what happened I felt the same way. I had to call my manager over afterwards to count my drawer because I knew something didn't feel right. After all that she only got like $7 or something silly like that. Scammers man. Hope your day goes smoother and your heat starts working again. Bright side: at least you don't live in a place where it's like -10 degrees out!!! Hugs <3
Thank you Siggy and Monie. I'm still not sure how I feel. I feel really empty, even now. I took a nap and dreamed about it. It really has done something to me. I just feel so used and like an idiot. I keep replaying that moment over and over but it is what it is I suppose.
My job continues to make me into a cold person. I deal with scum all day and it's like life is trying to make me into an asshole. I'm just not sure about anything anymore. My optimism has done nothing but screw me over. When I was miserable all the time I tried to make lemons into lemonade. Now that I have lemonade all I want to do is throw lemons at people. I suck at this life thing.
Also sorry for being such a downer right now. This is the only place I have to vent right now. I'm thinking about going out and having some drinks. Then back to work again tomorrow where I have to deal with racist rednecks, scam artists, and rude people, all the while worrying if my car is going to make it and all the micro managing stuff my job requires. I really am living the dream.

I appreciate your honesty about your feels, sir. It's hard to be open with others especially when the thing that is bothering you is that you're starting to get tired of others.

I know ALL about work making you hate people. You just really have to train yourself to leave it at work and not let it affect the positive person you are. It takes patience and practice, but it can be done. Honestly, you just have to separate it and almost become numb to it while you're at work so that those negative feelings don't follow you home. It really is a difficult thing to do, but it is necessary to keep your sanity. Hang in there buddy, we love you! <3
Oh, and more often then not, people do suck. So it's ok to want to throw your lemons at them. It is usually pretty justified.
Yesterday I was supposed to meet friends at a parade, my favorite parade, chewbaccus. I was in my Star Wars leggings and all happy ready to go. Well for the first time ever I'm in the car going by myself and didn't really think out the path I was gonna to take, thinking I'd park in my contract parking garage in the quarter. I'm an idiot. I made a bad decision took the wrong exit, drove in a circle for over an hour to end up where I started. I could have tried again, hoping the parade that was blocking me was over and that they'd let me through, or I could go home since there was no way on the bridge in the direction I needed to go to reach my destination. So I went home and missed the parade only to have a driveby on my street in front of my house. Cops where already in the area, heard the shots and arrived in less than 5 mins (which in Nola is a miracle). I live in a quiet suburb in Algiers, on a levee road with a low crime rate. I've seen crime, seen shooting, but never in front of my own home or in my neighborhood before. Needless to say. Yesterday was the worst day ever.
