I don't want to go back to work tomorrow T_T

#quilleth in real life #i'm remote this week but still #i probably have a ton of emails #most of them not relevant tbh #i just don't want to #also don't want to deal with the 'so what did yu do on vacation?' questions #nothing. the answer is nothing i can't afford to travel and i'm a burnt out homebody #like damn idk what you think i'm getting paid or what my bills are coworkers but uh...you're wrong #legit had one of them be like 'oh you have student loans?' once #like uhhh YES! i'm a fucking millennial!! i know a very VERY small handful of people who don't!#sorry college wasn't affordable with a part time summer job when i was going #it wasn't even affordable with a nearly full time job either #especially with the program i work in there's always this awkward not entirely judgmental #but it certainly feels that way--pause when i say no i haven't travelled and am not able to

one thing I really dislike in bl as someone who speaks & understands thai, is when a couple who used to be friends becomes an item & decide to change the formality of pronouns they use for each other. they always go from the least formal that exist ('kuu'/'meung') to the most formal ever ('pom'/'khun'), like... 'chan'/'rao' & 'ter'/'nai'/'geh' exist babes, please use them 🙏

#axelle rants #be my favorite #to be continued #it has only happened twice that I can remember but it already pisses me off lmao why are you talking to each other using pronouns -#- business partners use for each other like I hate that #like I know I'm not thai so my opinion is irrelevant but even if I'm old af & an important person I'll never call my partner 'khun'#I hate it it feels so remote imagine using closer pronouns with your friends than the person you're boning every night hell nah #also for mlm couples I find using chan & ter the CUTEST bc not many men use it and when they do it's with their faen so it's the best imo #and I'm not even MENTIONING the random new pronouns thai people drop every week like a new album that these characters could use too #AND WHEN THEY TRANSLATE 'KHUN' IN THAI DRAMAS TO MEAN 'MY DEAR' WHEN A MARRIED COUPLE SAYS IT??? I GO FERAL #also nevermind about to be continued looool I jumped the gun they didn't go into pom/khun whoopsie but be my favorite still stands #axelle learns thai

Ugh, I really want to finish editing this chapter so I can keep my posting streak going (9 weeks straight!), but my head is so full of work-related information that I am literally buzzing; vibrating at high speed.

Here's hoping that going to bed will help the storage space in my brain and I can work on it tomorrow T_T

#love my new job so far #like. wayyyy more than i've liked any other job i've had.#seems like a great position and a good place to work #however. a coworker is leaving and her position is not one that can be left empty #so in the interim until we find someone to hire... i'll be filling in XD #not what anyone was expecting lmao least of all me #i don't mind especially since they were very clear that i'd be compensated for it #BUT it does mean learning at least two entirely new software programs and about a dozen databases and processes #and that's just the tip of the iceberg; not even mentioning the paperwork side of things #... in two weeks XDD #i have no background/experience in anything remotely related to this position. so it's all brand new info.#at the same time i'm also learning the ropes of my own position #which is far more familiar stuff but still. every workplace does things differently so i still need to figure out the specifics for here #brain is. ON FIRE.#withoutwords

You know that episode of The Simpsons where Homer posts pictures of Maggie over the "Don't Forget: You're Here Forever" sign at work so that it says "Do It For Her"? I bought a keychain that says that in anticipation of my impending full-time return to an office for the new job.

#I've been waiting for a start date for over 2 weeks and just got a text that I should get one 'any day now'#and honestly at this moment in time I'm feeling sort of ambivalent about it #because honestly at this moment in time there's a part of me that regrets going looking for a new job #because there's been a change at my current one and now I actually have work and purpose while still being 100% remote #and that will go away at the new job which means I won't be able to do things like watch nooj and gif and write as easily as I do now #not to mention be home with my daughter and for my dad #but at the same time I know I can't just leave a 25% raise on the table JUST to stay full remote #hence the keychain #I'm feeling better about going to the new job than not. It's just change and I don't cope well with that.

realizing that things that are "better" on one side are actually sometimes a setback... an obstacle i had (mostly) cleared is back again. and maybe sometimes you have to sacrifice something for a while until you can face it again :/

#3615 my life #brought to you by it's been around two or three months since i'm using a shampoo that does not have sulfates in it #(the “bubbling lather” component)#and it made me regress to washing my hair as little as i can #which with remote work means once a week #and sadly my hair is not the kind that need only once a week.#and so i procrastinate washing it which means washing me as well (i'm in vacay rn)#which is not a good thing because then i don't do anything at aaaaall #they're not even that long ! but it's so annoying #i'll call tomorrow to get a haircut appointment but i still want to go back to something that lathers well alas :(

Completely almost forgot to apply for that internship I was interested in.... Applications close TODAY BTW. Like. It said "no later than May 1" and I am typing this at 12:01 am on May 1 lmao. I emailed it at like 11:59 on April 30 😭😭😭 Unfortunately the one I really wanted already closed, but the same company has dozens of internships with different departments, so I picked the easiest looking one lol. It's also the one where I would get to post on their Tumblr blog yippee!!! Fingers crossed 🤞

#how does posting on a work Tumblr blog even work lol #would they invite my account as an admin 😭#ig I would just say I don't have Tumblr and make a new account for that lol #also the internship is remote but it starts around the time I'm gonna be out of state for a week.... hm #they said the schedule is really flexible so I could mention that in my interview and see if they let me take that week off and make it up #and if they reject me then oh well #boss makes a dollar I make a dime that's why I blog on company time #<- I want this to be my workposting tag. but I will resist bc it's too long and would be a pain to type out every time I want to complain #workposting #goodnight my lovelies <3 #ANYWAY the timing thing should be fine bc the external website where I found the listing said it's open until 6 am #but idk if that's just the default time or what #shrug. we shall see. at least it's technically no later than May 1 bc it's still May 1........#AND I SENT IT LIKE A MINUTE BEFORE MAY 1 #whether or not the hiring manager receives it then is a different story

okay but I am genuinely so unwell about numbers and dates and ages and time and years etc. so I'm blaming all my bad luck on the number 23

#got so paranoid about it that i didn't talk to anyone for the last few weeks and i haven't applied for a job and i'm honestly not doing #anything until i'm safely 24 #idk what 24's gonna be like but it's got a 4 in it so that's a good sign #but then again 14 had a 4 in it and that was a terrible age #but tbf it was a 4 + a 10 which is like. my fav number and my least fav number. so the year just malfunctioned #first 6 months good second 6 months bad #so 24 can fit two 10s but they're not as obvious. but it's a multiple of 4 so i trust it a bit more #4 x 6. idk my feelings on 6 but it's never really done anything too bad to me so yeah. 24 is the safe zone #i blame everything on the number 23 and also my friend's awful ex girlfriend #OKAY SO LIKE i was reading coronation street youtube comments the other day #and people were talking about how characters like terry duckworth and mike baldwin were kind of prats before but then they #had some significantly bad experience and after that they became Absolute prats #like basically what caused their villain origin stories #and i was like oh my god am i gonna turn out like them?? is my friend's ex girlfriend responsible for my villain arc??#and i have felt myself becoming more negative and unhappy and cynical and bitter over the past few months #and i was like fuckkkkkk no i can't enter my mike baldwin terry duckworth era #bc before whenever a remotely bad thing happened i would just disappear and go back to telling myself there is nothing good with the world #so like for every job i never got and for every time i put something in the group chat and no one replied and every time i made something #and no one cared about it i would just sink deeper into some hole of hatred at the world #i mean. the rsd. like I'd still react to stuff in that way when i was younger and happier but at least back then I'd also #wave at cool clouds and smile at people in public and be like ''fuck i woke up too early and now i Have to take a photo of the sunrise''#but now i don't do any of that I'm just some bitter cynical bitch who hates everything #so yeah. my 2024 resolution was to reclaim the whimsy i lost at the end of 2022. and so far it's not really going well but at least I'm not #23 anymore #ramble

#yep. job was a scam #feeling. incredibly down and disheartened #but i'm still applying for positions and putting myself out there #currently can only do remote work since i don't have reliable transportation and like in the most unwalkable city in the US #so my options are starting to thin #could always try to go back to my old job since i left on good terms but the pay was pretty bad. idk #if a few more weeks pass with no progress and i start to get hungry‚ i'll be throwing myself at their mercy lol #anyway. good morning‚ working folk

Starting to realize I hate my job but looking for a new one when I plan to leave this city by the end of the year sucks.

#I'm going to update my resume this week ans just start applying to s few places anywa6 #if I can find something remote god Bless but if not still.#I love my short commute but fuck most the rest of this #esp now that I'm helping with inventpry work and afaik not being paid any extra #I'm also going to try and have a talk with my boss about it but 🤷‍♂️ We'll See

Apparently I wrote 450 words on my phone this morning. I'll take it.

#still not on the fic i supposedly want to finish by the end of the month #woof #anyway #shut up fraddit #I honestly don't know how I even did it #Because my brain is fucking fried #I've been going full bore on a redesign for my personal house project #Like a week of 12 hour days #And now I've hit a wall and I've got nothing left #Running on fumes #And like I know I need to rest and recharge #But I'm so bored #But also my brain is too melty to do anything remotely stimulating #So I'm just bopping around like a zombie #Or a dvd player screen saver

#my wife just left on a work trip #she'll be gone for two nights. so that's two nights and two mornings with the kids 🤪#the baby still wakes up for her multiple times a night. he's NOT going to like this lmaooooo #that's the part that I'm most worried about #i already do most of the getting them ready in the morning so it's just adding bringing the 5yr old to school down the road #and the evenings will just be whatever... surviving lol. I'll clean during the day when i should be working #i can do this. i can do anything for just a couple days!#...and then next week my wife goes on ANOTHER work trip!! hagagaghahaahhahah 🫠#only one night though #to be clear. when she agreed to this first trip she had no idea that they would both be back to back like this #and travel isn't going to be a THING for her really. just one offs once in a while like this.#this is her first one and she's already been a consultant for like two years #one good thing about the pandemic. as much as the business newspaper articles want to convince you.....#remote work is here to stay. for people in specialized careers anyway. they will NEVER get us back into offices lmao #my wife never wanted to become a consultant because of the travel #if it weren't for covid she would still be doing emergency management and business continuity in-house #(and i would still be driving across LA county 50+ minutes each way lmao)#anyway. traveling to work for clients in person on a regular basis is pretty much over in her industry #thank god #I CAN DO THIS

Friyay! Last day of training! Back to the office Monday! Excited to get back to a routine but afraid of the backlog.

#this week of zoom was exhausting #I didn't understand why it was more tiring than remote lawschool until I realized lectures were 3h or less #this 8 hours a day in front of a camera and screen.... ooof #I'm in front of a screen a lot at regular work but there's still reason to stand up and go talk to ppl #on zoom the ppl to talk to are in the screen

Ooooooh they didn't make Dalamud a red puppy because we were all going to meet Torgal in a few months after Euphrosyne. It was viral marketing or something for good doggos? He's a shard of Torgal??? I have no idea. I was just doing the raid and staring at the dog like "waaait a minute you're familiar"

#endwalker spoilers #ffxiv #ffxvi #I tried playing more yesterday and got hit with friend drama #I was going to play today but I got hit with parent drama #and then had to sleep for several hours in the middle of the day #so I'm still at the same place I've been for like a week which seems to be not far #thankfully I'm just remote playing from my brother's PS and it seems I can just let the game time out while I answer urgent phonecalls #and not lose progress/cause problems

why is my ability to sleep becoming increasingly dire I thought I was supposed to adjust to waking up early not get worse at it

#it's been 8 months of working 9-5 and i am not remotely accustomed to the early mornings #i usually have one night a week (generally a thursday or friday) where I'm asleep before 1am because I'm just so exhausted from the week #and depending on my plans i can get a full night sleep on one or both weekend nights #but i didn't get that this past weekend and today i was up earlier than usual #so WHY am i still wide awake at 2:28am #talking
