Whats I"m Up To

Working, Working

Hello people, sorry its been so long, turns out when you work 9 hours a day the last thing you want to do is sit down and type, usually what I want to do involves my bed and fluffy pillows. Like I said in the last post I'm working at Wal-Mart working on cars oil changes and things. I work 5 days in a row and then I get 2 days off, and let me say by the 5th day working, you really just want to die. This week I'm kind of working the ass shift, which is 10am-7pm, which is kind of nice because it means I don't have to get up very early and rush out the door, and it also means I don't have to close and stay there till 9. But its a living, we'll see how long I can take it, it gets me all angry and stressed out cause like you don't want to screw up and do something wrong, cause you don't want to totally fuck someones car, and since no one wants to give me specifics half the time and make fun of you when your doing something wrong, and since I've never done stuff like this before, it can be frusterating. Its a pretty physical job to, I really beat the shit out of my hands, when i have to slam my hand, as hard as I can into a metal wrench to get something to move. Maybe in a while I'll be used to it, but its just right now it takes all my time and energy, when i get home I just want to stop moving.

Oooh, here's something, ok last Friday I'm having a shitty day at work, had to get up at 6, cars are being a pain in the ass, everyone is buggin meand just as I'm goin on lunch they say they have too many people, not enough work, so they allow me to go home early if I wanted. I took the oportunity, and then I went overthe money I had left over from my paycheck, and decided to buy the $60 transformer I've been wanting for a while, just something I wanted, cheer myself up a bit. I'm then on my way to Cat's house and not a mile down the road, the cops are stoppin people, and they end up stoppin me. I'm obviously annoyed, but I just keep sayin to myself "whats goin on?", "what the heck did I do?" then they give a ticket for not wearing my seatbelt. Arrrrg, it made me so mad, because 1) I always wear my seatbelt when I'm driving, its the first thing I do 2) I even remember saying to myself "its the cops, I better put my belt on." I blame work, simply because I always wear my seatbelt, but when I'm working and we move cars we never wear belts cause we're going a short distance, and I had to fight my urge to seatbelt practically everytime. But its just especially annoying because of course I get a ticket for something right after I spend like $60. As if my debt itsn't enough, I owe $300 to my dad plus continue playing the $70 a month for insurence now. Just this week I payed my $70 to HVCC, and I got a credit card bill comin. Man not having money for 5 months makes some nice debt.

Is anyone else really annoyed how you can't use movie passes on any of the good movies the first week they come out. You think that the studios are worried that a Harry Potter movie won't make money, just makes me angry cause me and Catherine have passes but we never get to use them right away. Its really annoying, me and Cat went to the mall to see the Potter movie on Sunday at like 7pm, we get there and of course can't use passes for it, or any other movie we wanted to see, we were forced to find something else in the area to entertain us, thank god for good ice cream.
