Heather Proud's Friday

Magically not hungover today which rather ruins my plans to lay in bed till noon. Gonna have to think of SOMETHING TO DO now.
 
Good morning! It's my second day back at work (well I've been back all week but mostly working from home) and I hate it already :argh:
 
I'm SO late for work. The JOYS of just having to go downstairs and move the mouse round a bit so you show as "online". I never want to go back to the office!
 
Good morning

I hate work too, it’s like every week they stress me out, and I think “well at least I got through it” and the following week is somehow escalated. So basically I hate myself, my job and my free time is messed up because I’m just worrying about the next day

That's not good Didds. Do you have any holiday coming up to take a break for a bit?

I can’t GO anywhere though, the lockdown is basically over but I don’t have the money. I just got a notification for my public health insurance payments and it’s back up to normal so I have to go to the local city office and try to get a discount again (in Japanese that I can’t really speak)

I said when I took the job that I didn’t really want to teach kids, and I’m getting so many kids lessons now. Tomorrow are my first groups. Let’s hope I can remember my one day of training from March. FUCK FUCK FUCK

I thought it would be an easy day because I had 6 uni classes online, but they want me to do those online at home, and in the 90 minutes before my three in-person lessons they want me to commute in (which takes about an hour) so I won’t have time for lunch either, AND no time to prepare so I’ll have to wait until midnight tonight when I can access the lesson unit numbers and prepare then.

fucking bullshit the lot of it
 
Anyway sorry to complain, I just feel really stressed out and nobody to talk to

I wish I had any helpful advice but of course I don’t
Sometimes just being able to vent helps. Hopefully as life gets back to normal it’ll get easier

I think this is the problem, this IS my normal life now. I’m applying for a new job, it’s only for 6 months, but that would be full time at least. Starts in September if I get it

well possibly, it’s to work in a public school so... if I can get a high school or junior high school then fine, but an elementary school will be just as bad
 
I've just signed up for Universal Credit and in the process discovered I had a tax rebate due!

I'm SURE I'm paying too much tax. Was going to look into it during lockdown. Haven't yet.

Go onto your Government Gateway account. It popped up straight away and I've set up a payment that I'll get next week!

Oh god I'm in the park with Kylie and he's just pointed at a lady and shouted out 'Mamma why is she so fat?'

When I was a child (I lived in a village in Yorkshire at the time) visiting my Grandad in Lewisham I loudly asked my mother "Why are there so many brown people?"

Oh I did get that far. Said I was just on Basic Rate which I'm sure I shouldn't be, but that's where I stopped bothering to look. I can't remember the last time I got a nice rebate. I normally end up having to pay them annoyingly small but substantial amounts - 30 quid here and there. Cunts. :evil:
 
Oh good Lewisham Shopping Centre was my favourite place as a child

Just set up a mesh network in my house because I was only getting 3mbps from the shitty Virgin hub in my office when I pay for 350mpbs. Now getting 150mbps in my office and I'm very happy. [/floppet]

I did that when I was 3. When my mum tried to shush me I just raised my voice even further: “but she’s HUGE!”
 
Anyway who’s laughing now...

I just bought some “smart scales” and they’re a little too smart for my liking. They make for pretty grim reading and have produced graphs to tell me how overweight I am in about 8 different metrics. :)

I have them too. Thanks for showing me a diagram of my Visceral Fat. It really is lovely stuff...:gross:
 
I went to get breakfast from my local cafe and they played both Abba AND the Spice Girls. I honored Moopy by ordering everything on the menu. Then told them to turn it off.

Usually I'd be on board the save me from work train but I've spent the week teaching play script writing and spent all morning watching them perform their own historical comedies and it was wonderful. My love of teaching is RESTORED.

*kills self over weekend writing reports*
 
I just muttered "fucking rancid" to myself while putting the bins out just as a lovely looking YOUNG FAMILY walked past. Looks were exchanged on both sides.
