What's Bothering You?

girlfriend still hasn't come. monday she moved the day because of work. tuesday she was sick and hurt her arm and had to go to the walk-in. yesterday, she overslept and then said she was scared because she's "too fat" and worried we won't both be able to sit/sleep on my (single) bed. today she just flat out said she can't. wasn't even willing to try, she just kept saying she can't and that she's scared but doesn't know why. her gran fell over again and had to be hospitalized this afternoon anyway, but. i don't know what to do anymore. there's been some arguing and a lot of me trying to convince her to no avail. i don't know what i'm supposed to have done wrong or if i'm being played or what. she might be coming tomorrow/saturday? i'm not holding my breath anymore though. i offered to go up to her instead but warned that we might have to visit the hospital if i have a super bad panic attack and can't get it under control, which there is precedent for because the last time i went up to visit her, i had a panic attack so bad that i was breathless for hours, threw up, had to go home immediately, couldn't go on the first train alone and was ill the following day. since this would be another new environment, a lot of new people (her family), and the first time i'd be seeing her in almost 2 years, it could be even worse, so i wanted her to be aware and prepared in advance, but she said she wasn't putting me through that and would come down so. idk. guess we'll see.
 
I've been loosely following the russia-ukraine conflict, and while I don't want to get too involved bc I get overwhelmed so easily (no offense meant here, I genuinely hope that Ukraine cane push through this and they've been in my thoughts since this whole thing started), after watching this video I'm genuinely angry. can't believe how senseless and reckless Putin is acting. this is a disgrace. he needs to be stopped and if that requires me to write my state senators a note or donate what little money I have then so be it.
 
I accidentally put a decent sized hole in the wall in our living room 🙃

I'm not even upset about it, cause I know it'll be a relatively easy fix. I'm upset about the fact that my dad is prob gonna ***** about it for the rest of the day.

My parents are by far the most forgettable people. I keep teaching them how the new technology works and they always keep bothering as if I didn't tell them how stuff works. Its everyday they ask me "How do you this" and "How does this work" when I explained to them for like 500th time! It puts me in a bad mood when they don't get it and then they have the ADUACITY to tell me "Well I can't look it up on Google because I don't know how the internet works." Like for real? I just don't get it sometimes and it really just sets me off every single time!
 
So there’s this one person I work with and I feel kinda bad because I think she’s stressing herself out wayyy to much. I don’t know much about feet, but she needs foot surgery to realign the bone in her foot. She’s putting it off until next month because the manager needs her for lent and it’s going to be busy and she’s one of the better workers. Now I was off work today but my dad worked, and he told me she had to get taken to the hospital today because of something with her eyes? Like she randomly couldn’t see anything and I’m not sure what happened but there’s no chance she’s working tomorrow. I kinda hope she’s okay because I do talk to her and take smoke breaks with her. (I don’t smoke, I just sit out there with her and talk.) She’s kinda my hockey mom, I guess. I’m not close with my actual mom so she’s like the female I talk to a lot at work. She’s in her 40s and I don’t think this stress is helping. Just wish I knew more? Still, I don’t think that foot surgery should be put off. From what I’ve heard, the situation today is not good.
 
Gas prices are just insane right now!

Unfortunately my work is 70kms (43.5 miles) away from my home and I drive that twice a day 5 times a week. Basically 700kms (435 miles) per week. So I always have to fill up my car at least once a week. it's well over $70 now for me to fill up.

Gas is currently $1.72 per litre here. To help put that into perspective for US folks, when thrown into a converter for currency (CAD to USD) and litres to US gallons that would be roughly equivalent to about $5.13 US a gallon.

Oof. 💀
 
had to go through three different websites before being able to actually acquire a cv. the first was the one i used for free a few years ago, which then demanded i buy pro to download my cv at the end. the second claimed it was free but then said i had to pay around £3 to be able to download my cv at the end. third was finally a winner. super bland, regular 'template' but like hell am i paying for a ~~professional looking cv~~. and all this because the formatting on my original was busted. ugggghh.
 
Bleh, so again they cancelled my shipping because apparently no reason at all, and I did pick a non-EMS/express service as well. Again, it might be less opportunities to do air mail due to Russia's war in Ukraine but a) you should let people know b) you can fly over the Pacific/Atlantic/US as long as you don't use Russian airplane companies???

Hope it works a third time now or I'm just gonna demand a refund.
 
This is stupid. My brother never listens to me but I have no choice but to listen to him, even though I'm the older and more responsible one out of the two of us. And he's so lazy, always passing down his chores onto me. He does this at any chance he gets, and has the audacity to call ME lazy. Whenever we have to take the dog out or something, he always claims that he "did it last" or that I "didn't do it last time", and he says that every single time! Of course, my parents don't notice this. My dad says that I should go see him whenever my brother doesn't listen to me or if he does something wrong, but when I do he just says: "Yeah, I don't care. You two deal with each other, I don't wanna be a part of your ****." NOT helpful, dad!!

Gas is insane in Canada right now. Here in Vancouver it just went over $2.00 a litre. And it's not just gas, food prices have almost doubled for anything fresh like produce and meats. It's pretty worrisome.
 
I want to get a small Aquarium so badly, but since I'm not living alone I can't just decide like that to get a new pet and he doesn't want one. I just want a small one, next to my desk with one betta in it.. it's so relaxing to watch :cry:

I am sorry this is happening to you. I know what it feels like to have a family like that because mine is pretty much the same. My parents treat me like a tool because I always have to do things for them that they can't do themselves because they are getting old. I'm 26 years old btw and being autistic its like living in hell with those two. I never had a Brother, but I did have 2 sisters, but one of them never talks to me anymore. She was the type of person like my ex best friend would always downplay my feelings and giving me unsolicited advice so we haven't spoken for a long time. The other sister at least supports me even though she has a bit of an anger issue.

So yeah I can relate to how you're feeling because its the same problem I have to deal with all the time.

Yeah cost of living is just insane in general especially in Canada, but it's pretty bad just about anywhere anymore it seems. Sad times.

I'm blessed to be in a pretty ok position financially, but there's definitely no way I would be if I didn't have the support of my partner. I know many people are much less fortunate than me and my heart breaks for them.

In Georgia, USA our Gas Prices are around $3.80 like sheesh I might have to cut down on road trips because of this. This is ridiculous!

Apparently it's just gonna keep going up too.
Its all because of the whole Ukraine vs Russia war that is happening. Here I thought things would get better in 2022 after the Covid Pandemic but I guess this had to happen out of nowhere.

I think I lost my list I used to keep track of all the posters I have in New Horizons. D:
:(
Do you have a sticky notes on your computer or a piece of paper to write them down IRL? Maybe it would be easier if you keep track by the villagers species/personality/color etc...
Animal Crossing updated my storage so my posters are sorted by the animals species before I think it was sorted Alphabetically?
