Rough edges

...

Crappy slow weekend. Friday was entertaining, at least. Went with Groundel and LightShadow to eat at a local pizza place, indulging myself with a nice mofongo with real meat and veggie soup. Yummy! Went to bed as soon as I got home. The mage woke me up after midnight, so I caught a glimpse of WhatNotToWear and AModelLife.

On Saturday the windows guy appeared and finished up issues with concrete and other windows problems. Went with the mage to eat out, to my favorite grilled chicken place. After a hearty lunch, we went to see Rush Hour 3. (Umm, a nice rental... really). I foresee this shall be my last movie outing, didn't felt too well afterwards. Nauseous, tired and very drained. Waited in the car while the mage got some necessary kitty stuff. Called Groundel and then organized the cel's contact list... We finally arrived home after 8pm. Watched Bone Collector… sort of… I found it was boring enough to make me very sleepy.

On Sunday I was feeling bad enough, and didn't felt like getting out of the house. So, it was basically a “be a couch potato” day. The mage brought the munchkin for a while, then delivered her home. We had dinner while watching First Contact, and then to bed.

Today, getting up was beyond being a drag… Arrived a bit late at work, not that anyone minded… Not much to do here, anyway… Entertained myself trying to see if an interesting job post appears… but no luck on that matter. I’ll seriously start a job hunt in September. I would prefer changing the agency so I don’t loose the time that I’ve been working in government, but… chances, chances… And if I get a nice job offer from the private sector, enhanced by a career change, then c’est la vie! I need to get experience supervising or being a manager. Either that, or getting a work-at-home job.

Coriolis should be moving his kabooze in Las Vegas. Well, actually he should be enjoying a training, and maybe moving his kabooze at night. LOL Whatever. Hope he survives the heat.

LightShadow began her new job today, hopefully her eye thing will get better in the process. That one needs a week in a zen spa on the Far East, disconnected from civilization, family and cats so she gets total and complete rejuvanation. Well, at least she has an Italy thing around the corner, that should count as a retreat of sorts... :P

Groundel will stay for another week "home alone", sort of... He'll soon be moving with everyone else to San Germán. He finally got his medical card, but needs to get an updated ID to get the food card... So that's a new story... He needed to find a way to get to BellaVista for completing his foot treatment, but has found no way to get there... no car, no money... so, "la aldea sigue ahí"... And with me in my current situation, my taxi services cannot be utilized for the next 2 months at least... I warned him to get things done fast, but he got sluggish. Now, more time has to pass...

Feeling: Very tired, a bit sad, a bit concerned, a bit worried, very sleepy, somewhat annoyed. Stupid remarks from people, stupid obvious observations… I just want Friday to be here! Oh, the beauty of being out of this place for 4 months! I know I won’t be bored at home, new challenges lay ahead. Now, if only I could stop being driven mad by circunstance and some people being scatterbrained... I am completely hessitant and even scared of having to rely on some to do things I know I better do myself for peace of mind... The lack of common sense is a sickness that spreads far and wide. Being forced to trust simply because I cannot do things is quite unnerving... I feel I'm in a straightjacket, inside a sealed room surrounded by water, in a capsule inside a cavern that lays under an active volcano. So much for the ideal of feeling warm and fuzzy and thrilled and protected... Surprise, surprise...

What a carnivale...
