Other What's ruining your life right now?

So back to work today, spent my lunch break writing up a bit of a financial plan. It looks bleak... but meh! such is life sometimes! - this is not ruining my life, rather something else this time...

It feels like the winter blues have kicked in because almost everyone I have met today is moody or miserable to the levels they NEED to bring down everyone. Resting bitch faces as far as the eye can see! Just dark pessimism, nothing going right for anyone (hypocrite right?) targeted attacks of 'I don't know why you're so happy, (INSERT LIST OF WHY I SHOULD BE MISERABLE)'

I come home and same here, miserable partner and child, thankfully the missus has just gone to work because I really just want some positivity around me before I try to suffocate myself with my own socks!!

I'm not sure if I'd rather be at work or home.

 

****ing Chansey chains.

Edit: After a day and a half of doing it, I've finally caught 100 of the egg-****ing pink bitches and can stop dicking money on Ultra balls. God, what a pain in the whole lower-back area.

 

So the package that I thought would be a day late for Christmas... will now be at least a week late.
I stupidly keep refreshing the tracker all day and keep being disappointed every single time.

They better not have lost or broken it (I'd get my money back, no problem, but there's a unique piece in there, so it would be a huge shame)

 

This few days of work is usually extremely quiet an people are generally resentful as about (well here at least) 95% of the staff are not in so you get the seasonal bitterness from them.
Here their all just so hungover still its like being around people smacked out their face on spice.

 

I'm not sure a grown-ass man playing Pokemon Let's Go makes a whole lot of sense either, but here I am wandering (loosely) down memory lane anyway.

 

Being at work

 

Not seeing Christmas....worked 12 hours xmas eve night, slept until 1pm xmas day, worked 12 hour shift xmas night, slept until 1pm boxing day, worked 12 hour shift boxing night bla bla bla....

 

Ouch, whats your job ?

 

Sounds like... hooker?

 

Ordered some TIM on Amazon "prime" about a week ago.

This morning everything came. My new phone, the cable for it, the case, a sound card I bought. Everything but the sodding TIM. I don't have any at all, and have a board swap I've been waiting to do.

 

Rearranging rooms. Pulling apart my office/workshop room to move all the workshop- and hobby-type stuff to the spare room, and sorting through stuff in the process. This has been a long time coming, but it doesn't mean have to like doing it.

 

Oh don't, please. I have that to look forward to when I get home. I've got two desks both messy and in need of a very good clean (especially underneath). I have to take the monitor down, all of the old cables, the headphone amps (plural) and all of the wiring for those... Then clean, rewire everything and then I can set up my new desktop. On two desks, I've got that much crap.

I am hoping that the enormous box full of very expensive peripherals I grabbed over the past couple of months and the large FONV framed poster I refused to let myself put up until I was done are motivation enough.

Then again, give me one day in that place (my flat) without my PC and I will be going crazy lol. That oughtta do it

 

Car Tax.

Happy New Overdraft Year!

 

As much of a bitch as it is, it is still highly satisfying.

 

Yeah I once had three PCs set up on the side desk. So I have all of that wiring I can now get rid of. I'm also ditching wires and putting a large USB 3 hub on my desk instead. So that means one cable to the PC itself, and then everything else can be set up on the desk so it's not all hanging between the two.

It won't take me that long now that everything is out of there (I have two PCs here now, only the one there) but yeah looking forward to using all of the lovely gear I bought. I forgot how nice backlit keyboards were until I used one last week.

 

Generally feeling like I should do something useful but just not getting my arse up to actually doing something. Which, in turn, makes me feel worse and even more like I should do something useful to make me feel better. And that just makes it even less likely that I'll get up and do it. Nice circle there...

 

Sat at work, canteen closed at 10, people are already being sent home but looks like were here for the full shift despite there being no one to actually raise faults to us an no work to do.

 

Grab a bottle of bubbly and go to HR. That's what I always did when I had to work NYE.

 

Automobile - train - plane - plane - automobile.

A lesser known sequel. A long NYE. #firstworldproblems
