It’s has definitely been one heck of a week. I am surely glad that it is coming to an end.

Monday, I had an unusually long shift at work. With the department in the red and customers being more obnoxious than ever, it’s extremely hard to find any motivation, no matter how hard I try to be optimistic. It feels like a whirlpool sucking the energy out of everyone who puts on that blue polo shirt. It just keeps going no matter how hard you try to fight it. The customers have gotten so bad that I try to avoid working with the expensive stuff simply because I’m tired of every sale being a fight on whether or not I’m out to screw them over. Just a whirlpool you can’t swim out of.

Tuesday entailed a short work day, which was nice, but really didn’t bring anything to the table. I don’t even remember most of Tuesday.

Wednesday was one of those days where I wasn’t meant to relax, at all. First, I make a comment over at Neowin that winds up angering too many people. That was fun. I can’t forget the innocent trip to McDonald’s which added in a brief visual twist that I could have gone without. When I finally thought I was going to be able to relax and sit back and play some MVP Baseball, my XBOX controller decides it’s had enough of this cruel world and killed itself off. I should have just woken up that day and closed a door on my head. It would have been short and to the point.

Thursday was yet another joyous day of Best Buy employment. I am not going to be upsey when Alex, my manager, gets transferred to Appliances next week. Maybe I’ll wear some assless chaps just to show him what he’s missing out on now.

Friday’s only event was an uncomfortable and patience testing trip to Adelphi University to help Diana move back into her fall dorm room. Besides the fact that Joe and I walked onto campus, into the dorm building, around campus and even in and out of the dorm room without ever being stopped, I’m sure their security is top notch. I should have stolen a base pad, just to compensate for the shitty day.

Can you believe this? I just did a break down of my week as if people are going to care. I’m starting to question if I’ve really grown as much as I thought. Why all the anger? Why can’t I get over the past? Ignorance is bliss until you know the question exists.
