crap moods
Moods. Can’t I get a quick fix? I wish I could drown myself in truffles to maintain a happy disposition.
But I am restless. And I can’t stand being me right now.
I have done all I can to get a clean break from the job I quit, but the new girl and the boss of the past has been asking me questions still - even after I had gone back for two days to get both of them settled in. I am just tired of it. I’m tired of all of it. I want out. Out as in no more talks about the clients and no more talks about the projects.
I have been trying my best to be a most supportive assistant for the Mister and his new cause, but each day, I have to repeat myself and explain to him what I need from him and his partners to get things done. I am finding it more and more irritating that dinner or sleep or conversation is interrupted because one of his business partners think it’s okay to call him late at night to talk about business when he could have been polite and emailed the Mister about it since it’s really not a freaking emergency anyway! I expect that at a certain point even headache cures will be interrupted this way and I will never forgive the Mister if he does pick up the phone then.
Sometimes it feels like I am about to go stark raving mad. But I have once fallen into madness, and I imagine had become enough of a nutter to punch through to the sane side once more.
Maybe it’s the continuous jackhammer that operates all day that leaves that annoying jack-jacking sound in my head and is leaving me completely frayed at the ends. It makes me want to jump out the window so I can land on his head and crack the bones with my feet.
I wish I could transmogrify myself into a dog so I can bite more and bark less.

I’d go for a quick run so that then I could eat more truffles! I so hear you about the phone calls. One of Mr BC’s lot rings him at all times of the day and night and it just pisses me off! Especially when he has board meetings which start at 8 pm. Luckily he attends those by phone though, so it could be worse.
I also hear you about the job, after I got made redundant they got a consultant in to do my work, he spent the entire time ringing me. Eventually one of my ex colleagues rang up saying he knew I’d done all this work and where was it? I told him he should have thought of asking me where it all was before he sacked me! Another of my friends, also in your position, told me a few days ago that because of her ex-colleagues pestering her she’d thrown her mobile phone into the river!
Just thought it would help to know you are not alone!!!
Cheers

haha..I have not had a proper workout since after college in 2003..(hmm..do headache cures count?? :D) But I eat truffles just the same! (explains my spare tire right down the middle…doesn’t it?)
hmm..I hope it doesn’t come to throwing a phone away..but I am considering changing my number..oh well..maybe I’ll have to tell them off next time..It’s becoming unbearable.
and it helps to know someone out there knows what it’s like and has one time or another gone completely nuts about it too! hahaha…
good thing the Mister hasn’t gone off to send me to the looney bin!
