No Ambition Lately

What a sucky week it has been. I got moved out of clothing finally. YAY! But only for a week. The girl who said she would help decided she didn't want to do it anymore after only 9 hours so they scheduled me there again next week. BASTARDS! How is it that I'm the only one who doesn't know how to stand up for myself and tell them that if they keep my ass in there much longer I'm going to stage a sit-in? And by sit-in I mean sitting on my butt at home and not working for them anymore. Oh, that's right.

'Cause I'm poor and need the money.

More things that have pissed me off this week:

  • Getting yelled at by the general manager 'cause I called him and told him I needed help at the registers. Members were starting to turn against me and I only had one cashier and the MOD was on a forklift helping another member. Is it really that hard for you to get off you dumb ass and stop talking to yourself in your office and come downstairs and maybe actually do some work? You are useless as a human being and worthless as a manager. Stop breathing my air.
  • Since my boyfriend started working nights and sleeping during the day, I've pretty much gotten used to : 1) Having the bed mostly to myself except for the spot I allow the dog on. Why does he insist on sleeping when he should be awake thus making me give up my spot that I've grown accustomed to and being so uncomfortable that I can't sleep while he's peacefully sleeping and sounding like a lumberjack to boot? 2) There have been many times when I've come home from work expecting him to be asleep and I have a plan to watch the only TV with the DVD/vcr hooked up to it but when I walk in the door he's wide awake watching Episode 4 of M.A.S.H. JUST GO TO SLEEP WOULD YOU! Because it's your turn for the bed. You're messing up my day and yes I will be bitchy 'cause it's the one day that I have to myself to do what I want but I can't 'cause you're awake when you should be sleeping and don't look at me like you don't know what's wrong. You know what's wrong and if you don't you're an idiot for not knowing. And no, I don't want to talk about it because THAT WASN'T MY PLAN FOR TODAY! MY PLAN WAS TO DRINK A WHITE RUSSIAN AND WATCH A MOVIE AND DE-STRESS THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
  • People calling at obscene hours of the night. And not just people...family. And not family that lives thousands of miles away. The ones that live in Gates. Because they got a flat tire in the drive-thru of Taco Bell...at 2:30am. The ones that don't have a cell phone or a pager but leave me messages saying they need a jack 'cause their ghetto fabulous car is devoid of its own. But then calling 10 minutes later as I'm starting to get dressed to help this wonderful family member to say not to worry about it cause he's gonna call a tow truck. Well guess what o' brother of mine? I'm already dressed and awake and I have to go to work in about 5 hours and there's no chance of me going back to sleep anytime soon. GRR! Fine, great you figured it out. SO WHY ARE YOU CALLING ME AGAIN AT 7AM ASKING IF I HAVE AAA? I thought you had figured it out? And no I don't have AAA.
  • I belong to the RAC and have been a member for almost a year. In the past year, my personal trainer has left and my fitness instructor has left. Don't ask me what the difference is 'cause I don't really know. Anyway, every person they pair me up with takes my measurements and then a month later they are gone never to return again. So who cares? you're asking. Well, geniuses, everyone measures differently. Two different people could measure the same person at the same time and come up with completely different measurements. So I never know if I'm actually losing inches because everytime they measure me it's someone I've never seen before. Why am I paying $65/month to work out and not even be sure if I'm seeing results. What a pain.

The few things that have gone right this week:

  • My boyfriend got a job finally! Only took about 9 months to get offered his first job in a field that he went to school for. No more working nights for him. Tuesday is his last night at that stupid grocery store and Friday is his first day at the new job. There's also a nice little shindig to look forward to at Rae and Laura's on Friday. Thank god for parties and friends.
  • No more having to pick up Chandler from the day care on Thursdays 'cause her mother is finally finished with school. I still can if I want to spend time with her but no more responsibility. So if I want to stay longer at work and get some extra hours on Thursdays, I can. Not going to happen but the option is there nonetheless.
  • Going to get my measurements taken at the RAC and being told that I lost 3% body fat and gained 2 lbs of muscle. Don't know how much of that is true since the person who measured me last time doesn't work there anymore but I'll go with it. I need something to lift my spirits.
  • I finally planned my vacation to Chicago for June. It's not a long vacation but its definitely needed.

I think that's about it. I have to go workout today; I need to go workout today, but I don't want to go workout today. Tomorrow is Monday and another craptastic day to look forward to in clothing. Maybe I need to go back to school and finish getting my degree. But no ambition to do that either. I need a swift kick to the ass to get me going.
