Today I continued my feeling like a fuck-up nuisance at work by completely destroying my work computer with a heavy duty virus that wiped my boot drive so it couldn't even be booted with the OS disk, and thus had to be taken to a shop to be completely reformatted. How? I have no freaking clue. Well, no, that's not true. Apparently streaming music sites like pandora or slacker, twitter, other random sites have malware up the wazoo. Also apparently my boss never runs any spyware. Still, I dutifully manage to feel completely humiliated, embarrassed, and a complete waste of everyone's time and patience (the latter of which I've felt for most of my time working there), so yay team.

I guess it wouldn't be that bad if my coworker didn't hate me for reasons that, eight months later, I still have yet to determine. I can almost feel the condemnation hate cloud aimed at me from her office. Just when I feel like I've managed to get a good hold on what I'm doing in the office, something like this comes and completely trips me up, and I just want to tell them that I'm leaving soon, that I'll be out of their hair in a couple of months and they won't have to deal with me anymore.

I won't have this job forever, and in the grand scheme of things, it'll more than likely be forgotten soon enough, but right now, it sucks, and I just want to stay in bed tomorrow and never come out.

Good news received today is that we still have a $400 AAA gift card that my dad got when he retired that needs to be spent by the end of this year. We're thinking of getting a hotel room at a semi-fancy hotel at Disney, like the Port Orleans French Quarter resort, and going to Epcot the week before Christmas. I also can't believe I live an hour and a half away from the place and I still have not been to Harry Potter world yet at IoA. Need to do something about that.

I guess things like that is why the government make it impossible to access anything unless it has .gov.au in the web address on it at my work. *SIGH* Things will get better Sarah, and like you said, it's a temporary job, it's not like you'll be there forever and ever.

It's all about perspective. This is my mantra. I'm living by it and repeating it like 60 times an hour, every hour right now.

Yeah, I should probably put my own internet ban on now that I'm back up and running again, haha. Just, auugh, my job is sometimes so very very boring, and that shouldn't be an excuse, but I just can't help it sometimes. Oh well.

I am definitely adopting that mantra. Counting down the few months I have left. Thanks, honey. ♥

A sucky job is like a migraine - yeah, you know it's not going to last forever, but that doesn't make it any less painful to deal with. Hang in there honey! Visualize Harry Potter World!

Oh yes, that is definitely being put at top priority in my head. ♥

Work stress is the worst and crappy co-workers make it even more stressful. But I know that you are amazing and smart and competent and that if things are rocky, it is entirely on their end, not yours. ♥

I am clinging on to that thought tremendously. So soon, and yet so far!
