my week thus far.....

FUCK!!!!!!!! ( red flags )

This is the only place can write - to get things out in the open and not offend anybody - I would post on facebook but I have too many people reading and this would get out.... I saw the red flags when she first started as my boss and would constantly no call no show - twice on my shifts ( red flag )- I knew that she was going through a bitter divorce and custody battle ( red flag )The second time she didn't show up the hotel's general manager called me in his office and asked me directly if she was a good boss and I threw her under the bus and said no. I thought that this was the end - but she cried and begged for her job back and she apologized to al of her employees - saying she'll do better - yes she reverted back to the same no call no show..... and ultimately got fired - I saw her on her last day she was crying and hugged me saying sorry...... I should have left it at that..... I had been texting her off and on because we had set up a bet and if she won i'd take her to lunch...... this started in like august.... She blew me off and cancelled until october - when i left and went on my 6 week vacation.... I should have left it at that - but for some strange reason I decided text her happy new year and she seemed soo happy to hear from me and we set up a breakfast date and that actually happened on the 8th of january.... she was the one who after that said we should go out to a movie - theres's this art exhibit i want to see but no one will go with me.... so i said ok - i had nothing else to do but still leery about her being flakey - so she post phoned one date to go to the exhibit but just after that my aunt passed so i shut down everything to deal with family issues - we set up another date for the exhibit and she post phoned again - so i thought at least she is giving me a heads up... so the third time's a charm right.... so two days out i texted her - asking if that tuesday was still on - giving her many chances to post phone.... and i didn't hear from her - so i went without her because the exhibit was ending in a week.... I told myself i was done..... and I was until Valentines day rolled around and i decided to text her happy v day.and that next week - this week we went out three times during the last 4 days - the last being yesterday for a movie.... she said stuff like i have the kids this weekend and if you're around we're around - I really enjoy hanging out with you etc..... So i said the same which was true.... but i think i used the wrong choice of words.. when i said we should plan a weekly breakfast date and plan for other things in the week if that was possible.... " Started seeing someone recently and have a date this weekend." my response " good luck with that. " it's really done now.

you always remember your first.....

talk to me please....

i need someone to talk to

to who ever reads this.....

i wish to thank whoever read my last two or three blog posts and left me comments - you don't know how much you have helped me -

sleep

i do not really want to go to sleep tonight... because if i did i'd have to wake up and face the day.....

scream

sometimes I just want to scream..... but I can't
two years with my head down - shoulders slumped
scorned, disenfranchised ( marginalized) unfettered

sometimes i need to scream - but usually walk away
with my fingers pointed to my temple
pulling the trigger -
but again that wouldn't solve anything
because i still walk away -
in the midst of a day dream
and i wake up - in the middle of
clutching sheets -
air - wind - anything
to feel real

screaming again - but my words are snatched
stolen, borrowed -
consigned


i go to sleep most nights - not wanting to wake up
most mornings
but i do - because i have no choice -
ultimately ....
i do it for everyone elses benefit
i can't fathom how the family would tolerate
my taking my own life
which is the only power i have at the moment

still pretty close to bottom.

its been about... well its been exactly 3 years and about three months... since i was laid off from my highest paying, most stressful job in my so called culinary career.

the next job after this was about a 40% drop in pay
then my father passed and I took
about a year and a half off - as a hiatus to get my life into perspective
i still need more time to set things right

also during this time 11 deaths have occurred, friends, family members and pets.

i cant win for losing... i am currently employed
able to save money
but something is missing.... all i do is work and come home and deal with
the issues after my father's death.... which is a lot

im not sure how much longer i can handle all of this.

a first

the first time in almost 16 years I've taken a job in food - where I don't have to cook. I like the fact that I can go to work - be at work and come from work and have little to no stress.
also i think i get to meet a mentor - or mentee tomorrow.

hidden meaning part 2

me no like the game

if you didn't want me to call you

i'm an adult
be honest with me.
