Smoldering

 Man, today dragged soooooooo much. They clearly saved the most boring videos at work for the second day of training. One video was an hour long, and just consisted of two people talking about color schemes for merchandising clothes. There were some things we had to pay attention to in order to answer questions, but for the most part myself and the other person training just messed around on our iPods. Tomorrow I work recovery I guess, so that will be my first real shift. I also work at Toys, so it’ll be a long day.

I texted Kaitlyn when I got out of work, she texted back and apologized for forgetting to text back. I have a hard time trusting people, but whatever. This pleases me. I shall continue to set aside a small amount of hope for the situation.

I had some people over for the usual Magic and video game playing, movie watching hangout…and only a couple friends showed up. Oh well. There’s still hope for me to go to Portland this weekend, I’m not holding my breath though. They want to leave early, by 1 or 2, and I don’t get out of work until 3. Getting out early is unlikely, as it’s our last day to break everything down and load it onto the trucks at Toys R Us, which itself will be an agonizing feat.

Songwriting has been easier lately. I was hitting a writer’s block for a while. Mostly when my friends were staying here, I suppose. In every area I’ve been more motivated since they moved out. I talked to a friend from Michigan yesterday who is best friends with the one friend’s older brother, and it was pretty much the same situation, he feels like he’s making all the effort and being pulled down. Some people aren’t worth knowing after a certain amount of time; perhaps it’s better to leave them in the past. Just another disappointing piece of knowledge concerning my hometown. Still haven’t called my mom back.

Not much else to say…but I want to keep up this consistent writing thing. It’s nice.
