I know that it appears I never get any views, but that's fine by me. I don't blog for any sort of recognition. That's really not my style.

I blog because it means I won't blow up at somebody, and if I rant on FB I know people run to whoever I may be ranting about and gossip about it. And I'm done with that. Unless, of course, I WANT them to gossip about it.

Today I posted about how I'm tired of being a doormat and included a couple of very pointed examples concerning some people I know and have given more than once chance to. Yeah, I'm done with them. I can see why one of my friends usually only gives people one chance before writing them off. It's a lot less drama.

Basically, I've come to the realization that a set of friends only bothers with me when they want something from me. Such as being a reference for a financial reason, or to borrow money from, and more. The money thing stopped ages ago because I came to the realization that I would never see it again. One group of friends ended up owing me a nice chunk of change that I eventually just wrote off because I knew I'd never see a dime of it.

I have decided that the next time I get contacted by a company asking me for a reference for people I haven't had any real communication in ages that I will not shine sunshine up their ass anymore. Instead I'll be honest and just tell the caller that as I haven't had any communication for a long time that I am not comfortable providing a reference. Besides, just because I gave permission once it does not imply that this consent is always in place. Consent is important for all things, not just sexual relationships.

For now I'm just going to go back to lusting over the unattainable Lee Pace...I have no idea what started this particular obsession, but there it is. And it's not really lusting, if I'm completely honest. He seems like he'd be a very friendly guy who could carry on an intelligent conversation and not get pissed off if I have no clue what he's talking about. Besides, he and his boyfriend are so utterly cute together <3

Maybe I'm just lonely as fuck.

*sigh*

So, I've been verbally given a three month eviction notice due to my landlord wanting to renovate the apartment I've been living in for almost 12 years. And he's made it clear that he will not entertain the idea of me coming back once the renovations are done. Yes, the place needs some work - I've been here for 12 years so wear and tear are only natural. Of course, the day he needed into the apartment was a day where the place was a state. I'd just worked my last day of a string of five days in a row and housework needed to be done. Five days worth of dishes in the sink, garbage that was in the process of being collected to put out on garbage day, and laundry that was in the process of being washed, dried, folded, and put away. Plus stuff on the floor because I'd been going through my collection of doom bags and boxes so I could get rid of more things I don't need or have room for. It clearly wasn't putting the best look out there for my landlord to see,...

So, I didn't get everything out of the basement common area by the end of October. I got a LOT of it out, but there still remains some items that desperately need to go. I just haven't had the spoons to do it yet. Such is life when your health, mental and physical, decide to have other ideas. Obviously, I'm still working away at it all, and making progress too! A week ago, during my last two days off from work, I finally put together the free shelving thingy I got from Temu and started putting things on it. Talk about a huge difference from having things all over the counter! Organization of my kettle, various water bottles and travel mugs, spices, cereal, and other things have been accomplished and I have actual working space on the counter now. Given the space and time (and another shelving thingy at some point) I'll hopefully be able to turn the top of my mini-fridge into a coffee station and get rid of the two milk-crates I'm currently using to hold canned goods...

Ex got his ass fired on Valentine's Day...what a loser

-
The ex no longer has a job - he was termed on Valentine's Day. I can only wonder exactly what goes through a person's head to continue to do the same stupid thing repeatedly. Clearly he's not all that bright if it means that he has yet to learn a lesson out of all of this. But I also think he tends to think he'll always get bailed out whenever he screws up like he apparently always does. When he told me that he always loses his jobs the same way, I thought maybe he felt guilty about it all and wanted to make a change. Obviously not. Whenever I eat in the food court at the mall I work in I keep expecting his mother to approach me to ask what happened. Or to give me shit for not making her son a priority. Frankly, I'd love her to try giving me shit because I'd tell her - mother to mother - that she raised a selfish idiot who refuses to learn from his mistakes or is just too stupid to figure out that how he chooses to go on is no way to live. What is he goi...
