| Got a new job. It's a part-time, second job, but I'm way more enthused about it than the current full time position of which I've held for four years now. Plus, helps bang out my credit card debt.
Since I'm currently only scheduled for weekends at new job until I work out how to get from one job to the other in a reasonable amount of time, I don't expect to have any weekends for a while. It's fine. |

Hope it works out well! Could maybe lead to better full time ventures too or some business networking. 
Been busy lately with the damn crazy weather. It was literally like 60 degrees on Sunday, when it was below freezing earlier last week, and then we had an ice storm last night. This was the third time this winter my job has had us call the hotline in first to see if the specimens/work was delivered and of course... yes. The day a production based corporation shuts down for weather in Kansas will truly blow my world away, I just laugh when supervisors tease us with this crap. Super glad I got new tires in November since they've been put to work a lot this winter. It hasn't been a seriously bad winter, compared to one a few years ago back at my other apartment with my old roommate... we basically got snowed in. But yeah this winter has been pretty annoying and I'm ready for it to be done. |

| Definitely need to get out of the first job. I made a mistake and scuffed a parked car. Left a note on the car and told my boss, against the urging of my co-worker to just drive away. I'm facing the possibility (again) of getting fired.
Tired as fuck of everything else there AND my boss is talking about pursuing a possible job in Texas. Two weeks from my last hurrah before I lose all my weekends. |

| Sorry you're overworked, Xeo. I imagine I'll be in that same boat soon.
I'm on my last two weekends and people are flaking on our plans together. You'd think I'd learn. |

| Started my new job this past weekend. Heh, what's a weekend?
I feel like I'm going to fuck it up somehow.  |

| Yep, sorry all I haven't been around much... still getting worked a lot with overtime. Apparently the unemployment rate is SO low right now they're having trouble getting us temps to help with the influx of work. We've only had one or two people hired on when they could usually get a dozen to us in a few weeks. Hope it slows down soon...
How's the new job going Rogue? |

| It's going all right. I was scheduled for just weekends, but they started asking me to do nights too as part of my availability.
So ... work at the center Monday through Friday 8 'til 4. Work at Disneyland the rest of my waking hours. |

Somehow mixed them up and forgot which was which. 
Last week was a slower more normal 40 hour week... still had the usual 10 hour day today though (Tuesday's are the busiest), but hopefully with a few temps now maybe things will slow down again at my job. We definitely need the break... Weather warming up and I'm already turning the AC on. Can't sleep in humid hot junk. |

| Congrats! I want a cat someday. Just not sure I want to bother with animals in apartments. But I don't know if a house will be in the cards for a long time... | |||

| I swear when it rains, it pours. Working two jobs, still on my first four months probation with one, and I get hit with a jury summons.
Was sick all this week and when I finally remembered the summons, I had just enough time to postpone it 'til July. I'm so exhausted, mentally and physically. (Last edited by Rogue on 06-06-19 09:58 AM) |

| Working 60 hours a week, not counting my commutes to, from, and between my places of employment and having to change clothes and work the nights on an empty stomach.

Well I'm finally seeing some specialists/neurologists lately, turns out I am officially broken. Bulging discs at my C4-C5 protruding on the spinal cord and my neck is "straight", as in it's lost its natural curve. Going to go in for some nerve tests and other stuff since my left side, shoulder/arms bothers me the most. No idea what this will all lead to.  |

| Hope your health is improving, Xeo. Sorry your spine has been having problems.
I'd spent a lot of last month incredibly ill and at one point had hit a really dark place. Ah, depression. Anyway, am back on the horse, in a manner of speaking. Took a few days in San Francisco to see Metallica and run around town. Got our rental car broken into and stuff stolen, but the most valuable things were quickly recovered. I finally passed my probation at my second job, but we're going through a slow season, so I'm only getting a couple shifts a week lately. I'm actually cool with that since it finally gives me some mental wiggle room. |

| Well, I legit thought I'd hit the "Happy Thread" in Last Posts, especially while I was reading the last thing I wrote here. Eh.
Still working two jobs and still pretty tired all the damn time, but yeah, I guess you could say I'm happy. Glad the second job lifted the ban on trading shifts to get days off, at least for now. It's to help people seeking extra hours get them while those of us who don't want to work so much can just give away those hours. This has given me the ability to actually have days where I don't have to go to either job and to actually rest or spend a day out having fun and not worry about getting back in time to get ready for work. Anyway, I can't believe the year's almost over already. It's been quite a ride. I wouldn't have predicted how this new year had gone since the beginning. To 2020, everyone. |

| Oh, Rogue from 2019. How naive you were then.
So this year has taken a dump on everyone, some more than others. I've started therapy and medication for all my mental shit, and even though I've had the occasional breakdowns, it's been fine. The real work is in the exposure therapy I'm putting myself through. Baby steps. |
