shitty

If her life was going to imitate thirdcat’s art, it was disappointing for it to happen quite like this.

Cunts. It should have been you. Big hug coming tonight.

Very shitty. And then there’s the budget. Perhaps, as they say, a night on the tiles?

Not with the husbang out of town and me flying solo on the parenting front.

Today I bought the world’s ugliest shoes to wear while I waitress on rich stuck-up cows at a cafe in Cottesloe because I can’t seem to get another job and I needed decent shoes I could stand all day in.
I had to sit in the car crying at the shopping centre because I feel utterly crappy about it all. And then I feel self-indulgent for being upset. Which makes me more upset. Because really I’ve got a great life and this little career hiccup is nothing major, right? *more tears*
Fucking ugly shoes they are too.

Shitty, Kate. I had a little weepy when I got the letter too.
It’s very upsetting when they fall through when you know you can absolutely cream the job.

Yeah, it’s shitty. Oh well.
Thank god for those aloe vera tissues and alcohol and ferrero rocher chocolates and little puppies and all the good stuff.

Shame about the shoes, though.
Wouldn’t they let you wear your crocs?

Ah girls, you’re the bombs one and all. Don’t be sad. It’s never worth it.

Just think of how good you will feel when you can burn the shoes Kate. Burn baby burn.

And Kate, kung-fu slippers. Sure they stink up quick but they’re real comfy for manual labour, look quite the thing when teamed with the usual black below and white above waiter’s garb – and at $15 a pop you can easily run through a quite few over six months without making a major dent in your bottom line.

Re: the shoes. They had to be black and closed in, so no bright orange crocs. Its quite an upmarket cafe so you need to keep yourself nice as they say; I think it’s why they hired me — because I don’t have the typical uni student scruff look.
I should have looked into the kung-fu slippers, Nabs, but instead I’ve gone with some fugly black loafery things from a brand popular with the purple hair and bingo set.
Anyway, I just wanted to say that I had a good therapuetic breakdown yesterday and spent about two hours crying my eyes out. Then I felt better. The world seems a much less awful place than it did yesterday in the carpark of the Innaloo westfield.

I love crying, and I know Ms Crazybrave does too. Unfortunately my man is one of those who feels helpless and frustrated when I cry, so I tend to do it by myself, usually in the car, and then I look up with my my snot-covered shiny face to find a carload of hip young things staring at me at the traffic lights. Sigh.
But those tears do usually help the world look a look cleaner (or is that because I have to wipe my glasses afterwards?)

Yeah i dunno, still seems a bit like vomiting to me. You know its coming and you know you’d rather it wasn’t a public event. And you have this idea or sense of feeling better afterwards from ‘last’ time. But then your in the middle of it and it sucks, and ends and you remember that it wasn’t imediatly afterwards that you felt better last time. That ‘it’ wasn’t why you felt better either, rather you began to feel better at some point after ‘it’. -sigh- damn shoes for menial jobs, my heads no good for menial jobs not so nicely kept, as they say.

“popular with the bingo set” shoes – if it makes you feel any better at all Katie, I am laybying myself a pair of decidedly unfoxy Homy Ped nanna shoes from the chemist…

And just think, Kate: when the right job does turn up, you can turn up for your last day at the caf with the fugly shoes painted pink with purple spots!
Rotten bastard non-recognising world – I’m blowing it a raspberry on all your behalfs.
