I feel like such a traitor when I take my cat to the vet! 😭
He's here!
I wish that the whole world was robots and I didn't have to deal with Social Things.
I'm also doubly an idiot because I'm going to tell my boss about it instead of sneakily doing whatever I want and leaving them in the lurch if I get something, which would definitely be smarter. I love people too much by default, even when I barely know them and never socialise. It's a problem.
Oh well, he got his own back and now I'm showering for the second time today.
I feel so bad about applying for another job even though I'm on a crummy no-notice temp contract with pay significantly below the living wage (and I'm not even getting what was agreed). It's hard being such an idiot. They'd have no problem ditching me when they want but I agonise over the betrayal.
A van full of mattresses just drove around our road accompanied by a woman ringing on doorbells to ask whether anyone wanted to buy one. Do people really impulse buy mattresses like that?! Is it a new initiative by the local bed shop or the aftermath of a really specific burglary?
Being self-aware about my own childlike naïveté doesn't equip me with better tools to deal with it when I can clearly see that it's disadvantageous to me. I'm unlikely to get the other job anyway, but knowing I'm looking around after taking a chance on me will change my relationship with my boss.
Also picked up this very affordable and surprisingly cool-looking mini bag from a UK high street chain. Weird. It's kind of impractical (the screen is transparent but it's not designed as an ita bag and has no insert) but it is small and sturdy enough for concert-going and looks fun.
