What the hell am I going to do?
Gee, why do you think I don't wanna call you? They are so irrational. Whatever I say they use against me and don't listen to, and never change their minds. I'm all scared now, and started off the day wanting to cry. Oh joy.
I suspect I really need to get a job, ASAP. Found two possibles (one for the office of the registrar, one videotaping law school things), and on temporary job (four days). Though I can't apply for the real ones till I return from BM.
The boss isn't coming to work again till Monday (his brother got sick), and how we're gonna let him know we're going, I have no idea. I suppose Rem would know something about this...
Anyway, after that Rem came over for awhile to take a nap (up all night cleaning), which was nice. I wrote a polite e-mail to my mom that I'm sure she didn't get. He was driving me a bit nuts today, saying that I have to get a bike, get a license, get a car, like begging me too... and as usual, I don't wanna do any of the above, no matter how much he or anyone else begs and pleads. If I had the vehicles/license, I'd avoid using them. See, Mom, I DON'T do everything Remington says. Na na na na na na.
Also drove me nuts that he said he'd "probably" go to Bill/Melissa's, and then asked if I wanted to go (the whole left out thing), and then said we could do his night off another night. Ugh. Stupid idea...unless he says "I'd rather have night off tomorrow night, come hang out with us tonight," that's just postponing the whole fight till another night. Every night he has off, this is likely to come up, how I'm being left out. Well, if part of the point is for him to hang out with people without me, and he's hanging out with all the people who wanna do something, that's inevitable. Can't fix it in any way that'll make us both happy. He shut up about it...I don't think he'll ask me any more. Though I should mention to him that bit about if he wants to switch nights off, or whatever. But as he goes off to Kathmandu tonight, I'm all hungry (and broke, though, so I shouldn't), and not really looking forward to using up the rest of my salad tonight, again. Sigh.
Rem was acting like he wanted to see me tonight, to the point of saying "I'll see you in a bit", when he left, and I wondered...his idea of a bit was to come back and get his cellphone that he left, and then he ran out immediately. Grr. Don't know when I'm seeing him tomorrow...I'm assuming I will, we never worked anything out.
Well, on the actual good news side for the day, I got lots of stuff packed (I found some leftover boxes in the closet) =)
This'll most likely be my last entry before Burning Man...wish me luck.
Time to call the parents...
Wow. That was an actual pleasant phone call. Not a yell. I said I was grouchy last night (chalked it up to PMS), and
she was okay with that =) What a shock. Said she trusted me to do the right thing (wow, never thought I'd hear that!),
and even Dad didn't yell =) She even said she sent me a check for the phone bill and will pay utilities. Whoopee!!!!!!
Ending on a happier note...
