Could this be the last day of the monster?

That sounds like a horror movie.  It has been a horror movie.  He and his girlfriend were gone for most of the day again and it was lovely.  I am hoping that tomorrow is moving day.  The garbage people were probably hoping he was moving after he dumped all of his gross trash in the garbage cans this week.  

There has been some weirdness with us not getting mail.  I had one lonely eBay package I had to drop off on Tuesday and well, that didn't happen.  I saw a sign that they closed at 4:30 and it was a little bit before 5 pm.  I thought I'd walk it over after I signed off for the day but got a surprise.  It said something about staffing changes.  We hadn't been getting magazines and my mom normally gets a paper bill for her life insurance.  I realized that after the due date but I paid it online last night.  We went for a week without anything so we don't.  It wouldn't shock me if that location closed.  It's just horrible service.  

I have created a new monster habit for Precious.  I put her bowl of treats at the end of my work table this week and she jumped up on the table to eat them.  The next day around the same time, she gave me a look like isn't it time?  I thought fine.  I put a bowl up on the side of the table.  I put her up on the table and of course she had to walk around the table and across my keyboard.  As long as you don't hit the send button, what can I do?  I'm not the boss.  Just the servant.  She owns me.

Corinne sent me a link to some survey for the Heritage Foundation to take as a joke with fake names.  I was surprised at the salty names she used and yes, I did the same.  My grand finale was when I put the name down I put FOffProject2025 for first name and last name Fascist.  If this means I'm part of the resistance, so be it.  And yes, I spelled out the "F" word.  It felt cathartic.

I know today is the great economic resistance and I'll do the same.  I was hoping to go to this new bookstore this black woman opened up recently to find a history book, but she's at a convention.  It's my intent to visit her store and maybe find a book that will teach me more about history.  There is Boswell bookstore and maybe I can find a nice book for Charlotte for easter.  I can do that!

Still haven't gotten approved for those 2 dates and I have a feeling I might get talked to about it.  I am not happy that there's been hesitation.  My mom took the bus to a lot of her appointments when I worked in the office and walked about 4 miles home when she didn't have her wallet with her to take the bus.  I am ready to give an earful that I am not changing her eye doctor appointment.  Her eye doctor is semi retired and he only works Mondays.  She's partially blind and I would like to keep it from getting worse so he has been a great help.  I can work in the afternoon but that's insulting that that would even get questioned.  If I have to change my other appointment, I can push out a week for the dates I did get approved.  I will not say it's ok because it's not.  The fact that there's been this mystery about when the lurker will work and not is really insulting.  I hope it's ending soon.

Here's hoping there's more movement going on with the monster downstairs.  I am hoping we are free of him soon.

Here's hoping the good humans have a good day.

The Dark Things

I sometimes wonder about this when I'm in a brooding mood about how I got treated at a low time in my life.  Or lowest. Would people have been relieved if I just died?   Really.  I have thought the answer was yes.  I'm not talking about my family. I am talking about those who made their discomfort known to me.   They could have had some fake ceremony and a moment of silence.  There wouldn't have been a funeral so they could have forgotten about that part.  They would have excelled at pretending to care about my life if I wasn't here. Then, I had to go do something stupid and survive.  How do we deal with that?  My mentor even mentioned to me, well, you know, none of us have dealt with someone being sick.  Oh, should I get a fucking manual for that?  Excuse the F bomb but that was warranted. When I got my schedule for radiation therapy, I had wanted to talk to my manager about it and find out if it was ok.  I had gotte...

Too Peopley

I sat in a zoom meeting when my sound was out and I noticed one of the other assistants had a T-shirt on that said It's Too Peopley outside. I wanted to ask her where she got it.  Ironically I guessed correctly to one of her responses to the questionnaire we got that asked what do you hope to do someday and she answered retire.  I go off vibes at times and that one worked.  I understood how she felt because yeah.  I feel like that. I don't dislike people.  Crowds make me anxious.  I like hitting the stores first thing in the morning because I got room.  I got space.  I can look at stuff without people hitting me with their damn carts.  Anytime I've gone later in the day on a weekend to go do my walk, I wonder where did all these people come from?  There's something peaceful when it's not that many people around. I like seeing people walking their dogs and saying hello.  When it's later in the day, it doesn't seem so enjoyable. I'm l...

Blue Evening

We took a drive to see a place in Bay View. I was kind of familiar with the address, but I wasn't sure. I found it.  It was not great. According to my Ring alerts, it's near an area with crime.  It was in our price range. I just can't seem to shake this funk I'm in.
