Day 7: Saturday, May 21st, 2011;

Yesterday; I had to work for quite a few hours at Sears. Was ok... Except that I ended up on a 2 hour lunch break and then had to go back to work for like an hour roughly and I ended up not even doing anything there for that last hour... ugh..

Then I was told that I had to work on Sunday too... UGH! Which made me very upset... for many reasons... One: I really wanted to be able to go home for the weekend and hang out with friends and go to Donny's b-day party and D's farewell party... but it was too much gas to spend to just go down for one night and come back in less than 24 hours... So, that made me upset that all I wanted to do was go home and not be alone, get to be with some of my closest friends and hang out... instead I had to work for only a few hours and not get be with friends and just had to be home alone (though yes, Tanner was home with me, but it's not always the same to have a single, non-speaking dog, at home. You need someone to talk to or just be around some times.)

Also what made me upset about it was the fact that I got my hopes up for not having to work and the possibility to get to go home... but that's what happens when you have to be on call. Being on call sucks!!! It means never knowing if you have to work or not. You might have to work but maybe you don't have to. It also means not getting to set actual plans with anyone because you have to say. Well I'm on call, so I might be able to do that with you or maybe I can't. It would just be nice to say I have to work that time. Can we do it after I get off work or let's try it another day when I don't work. Sigh...

Anyway... that's all... So my picture for Saturday is me sitting outside at the pic nic table after getting home from work, disappointed that I can't go home...
