Or more precise to the point, I am losing it. Yesterday I felt like the coolest kid on my block (which is not saying much) because I got my belle and sebastian isobel and fox shirt and pins for my jackets in the post. Then I felt like the luckiest kid on my block because the New York Giants won and I won our office pool for the second time in 4 weeks (and one week I didn't play!). And then I went to sleep because I knew that my mum would have her surgery the next morning and come home and everything would be cool. Then I woke up. Now those of you who have been kind enough to read my melodramatic postings to this list know that I have a lot of pent up frustration and rage. Some of it relates to my mom's illness, some to elements of my personal life. And it keeps building. And I keep trying to vent. Unfortunately, that is tough to do when you have few friends and having just moved back to cleveland in August, I really haven't had the time or opportunity to meet people. Unfortunately this didn't make much of a difference yesterday after work when I felt like i needed to be held by someone for a whole day. But that doesn't even close to what this morning was like. First thing I found that the puppy had chewed up a Microsoft Office 2000 installation disc. Then I went down into the laundry room to find that someone had pulled my wet clothes out of the wash and threw them in a laundry basket--someone who doesn't live in my house. They were there because my mom's house is also her store, but that doesn't give them leave to not observe laundry ettiquette, especially when the laundry ISN'T IN THEIR HOUSE. Then to top things off, the puppy didn't have to go out because she shit all over the floor (she's old enough to know better, she's almost a year old.) So as it stands, I'm about to go spare. I really don't know what to do. I'm trying my hardest to concentrate on other things, but it's a lot easier to be pissed off now isn't it? I'm so flustered I have no idea how to end this post, so I guess I'll do it now.
