Work.
Tomorrow I leave for California. This is the first time i’ve worked four day for this company. I know that sounds silly compared to real jobs but normally I work two days, maybe three. Never four. The difference is that when I get off work I can’t go home. One day I don’t have to work til 5:45 in the evening so I’ve got the whole day to do nothing. I’ve got five more weeks left of this and I can’t wait. I’m already sick of it. I’m working on a different team this weekend (i.e. with people I don’t usually work with and aren’t fun) so it’s going to be poopy. This past weekend was our first pageant, the official weekend back and it wasn’t too bad but it just reminded me how much I don’t enjoy my job. I’m ready for normalcy. I’m ready to be home on the weekends and to be able to attend birthday parties, family reunions, weddings, etc. I’ve been missing out on so much for so long. I know it’s a good trade to be able to travel all over the country but the excitement is over. I’ve been pretty much everywhere so now I work and sit in my hotel the rest of the time because it’s usually the only down time I have.
I invited Nick to hang out last night and he didn’t, he was tired from work. We talked about hanging out tonight but I had to work til midnight and he was tired from the week so we didn’t hang out. Last night he told me he wanted to see me before I left and that he “kinda missed seeing my face”. I guess thats a good sign. I think work has really been part of the reason I hven’t had a relationship in so long. If I didn’t have to work I could probably see Nick this weekend or on his day off but because of work the earliest and probably only time in the next two weeks that I could possibly see him is Monday. Thats what I’m saying. Work puts so much on my whole life. I hate being gone so much! People ask to hang out and I say “sure, I’ve got an hour available two weeks from thursday.” I’m ready for a normal life. Five more weeks, five more weeks.
I need opinions on whether this idea is creepy or not. Nick has never been to California before and I was thinking about sending him a postcard with something along the lines of “I know you’ve never been to California so I thought I’d send you a little piece of it” written on it. Do you think he’ll be freaked out and think I’m psycho or is that cute? His address is on his FB so I don’t have to ask for his address or anything.
Hello world!
My first entry. How exciting. I’ve got a little figuring out to do on this thing but overall i’m excited. I have told myself that I will write every day (or atleast try to) because I think it will be good for me. Here I go.
