Why arm hitting is not your friend.

[imood mood at time of entry: annoyed]

So it turns out that the money I set aside from my paycheck that I just got last Friday (January 5, 2007) has already been spent. No, I didn’t get a chance to go nuts, I had to pay half of the rent in addition to the utilities.

I was really hoping that I would be able to pay on my medical bills and save the rest for when I would need it, because I know that I am going to need money for something. On the plus side, my intuitive niggling that I shouldn’t spend my money right away because I would need to make a surprise large purchase saved my behind – again. I really should listen to my intuition more often, as it’s never wrong.

I signed up for yet another writing exchange on LiveJournal. It’s the same community that I’ve done two previous exchanges for. Since the writing period is longer this time around, I am really hoping that I can bang something out and am not pressed for time in the end. I truly hate that when I am completely lost for ideas and plotlines.

Speaking of which, I am still trying to get myself to write out the “Veronica Mars” fic that is due soon. I got that assignment two months ago and still haven’t written a word on it. True, I spend most of my time either stressed or working or stressed and working, but I really wish that I had something for that assignment sooner. It won’t even be beta’d, which is a shame, but can’t be helped. I don’t know anyone who does VM betaing and does it quickly.

I can’t wait until regular library hours resume here in the library. This early closing is killing me. I have to make sure that I come over here early enough to answer all of my emails and go through everything I need to before the end of the day. This is a real strain on my time, since I usually have to run other errands, go to work, or sleep.

In fact, I only just moved over to one of the Internet/Word Processor computers a few minutes ago. Granted, I needed to move anyway, but I only did so now because some guy I am acquainted with plopped himself down next to me and kept hitting me on the arm to look at crap on MySpace. Why in the holy fuck do people insist on doing this?!

I have all sorts of people who spend hours surfing MySpace on the computers around me, with is annoying enough in itself. But when they start hitting me and talking nonstop about what new thing they did to their MySpace pages is annoying as all outdoors. Someone should round these people up and explain to them that no one flippin’ cares if they changed their background or added some really irritating music to their pages.

Seeing as there have been web pages for years now, they should have figured out on their own that the novelty has worn off somewhat, and that they should stop going on about their MySpaces as if they are the greatest inventions known to man. That honor is reserved for books, cooked food, email, the telephone, and certain television shows. Not MySpace. Maybe I should type up a memo and leave it casually lying about. You know, so that someone will eventually get a clue. Guh.

I have all of this week off, up until the weekend. This week’s schedule sucks so much that I don’t even want to come up with the words to describe just how much. I can’t believe the person who drew up the schedules this week. I know that I question people’s sanity and intelligence all of the time, and this is yet another reason why I do so.

And yes, I know that some working is better than no working, but come on! Besides all of that, it’s going to rain this week. Not today, no. It’s sunny and clear outside. No, it’s going to rain only on the days I have to go to work. Can someone explain to me how this is fair?

I wanted to go fill out an application at this job fair being held Downtown at a hotel on Monday (January 8, 2007), but I didn’t have a single clean or on-hand “interview shirt” handy. If I had the money, I would have simply gone and bought one from the evil that is Wal*Mart. Thanks to freaking Bob Matcha (my land lord), I couldn’t do that.

Must I be killed by the Land of Guh’s Frustrationosaurs? I mean, really.

I can’t even remember what I sat down to writing about besides the arm hitting, since I went off on a bit of tangent there. *shrugs* I can always write it down at home if I do remember later on.

Oh! I ended up getting a free Pink lender on Neopets! I wasn’t even trying to do so, either. I posted one unrelated message in one of the forum using my signature, and someone emailed me. What’s more, that same person is also going to lend me Snow and Orange Grundo pets as well! After that, I need to move on to the next avatar color pet. I do know that it’ll be a relief to finally get the Orange Grundo avatar, as I have been trying to get that one for months using the Lab Ray. Stupid lab ray.

Oh, and I try not to send out more than one notice a day, even when I post more than one entry. So if you want to read the other entry I posted today, backdated, can’t remember if I sent out a notice for or not, go back one entry. It’s a bit about my job and such.

I hope that you’re all happy and well. And Solo, congrats on the new job! = D
