wispfoxYep. I'm ranting. About nothing of particular value to anyone but myself.
This has been, by far, the most irritating day ever. Certainly not helped by a severe lack of sleep. I'd forgotten how much trouble I have getting used to major changes in my living arrangements.
*sigh* Invited or not, having a roommate move in is seriously causing 'invasion of space' reactions in me. Really annoying, that. Makes actually sleeping early enough and well enough not easy.
And, the fact that he has to get up at around 7 to move his car (stupid Andover lack of reasonable parking) doesn't help. I mean, he'd still be awake because of street noises, but if he didn't need to move his car, at least he wouldn't be moving around enough to wake *me* up an hour and a half earlier than I need to get up. (Yes, I know - it's only an hour... I'm *very* affected by sleep or lack thereof. Which, as long as I don't need to be thinking much, isn't an issue.)
On top of this, work is really starting to annoy me. Constantly having to deal with emergencies and poor communication and poorly organized stuff is taking a toll. Not that I suspect anywhere else in the tech industry is much better off. Well, maybe if I weren't at a startup... need to remember to update my resume. Definitely wish I were not in charge of something which *everyone* in the company depends on, some days.
Mmm. Maybe I should take a vacation. Not that I haven't already had this thought, of course. Problem being, we're understaffed and overworked and have way too many things that need to be done in the next few months. And, I'm going to start putting my resume out in May. Just in case. Not that anyone's hiring at the moment...
If I don't feel less stressed tomorrow, I'm going to have to pester my boss about needing some time off. Because right now, at least until I adjust to having a roommate, I don't think I have anywhere in my normal daily routine that *isn't* causing me some form of stress.
Hmm. And the fact that he's going to vanish to Asia in a month probably means I don't really get to get accustomed to him being here before he's gone again. And I'll get to re-acclimate when he gets back. At least at that point, he won't be actively moving in again. He'll just be back from his trip.
Not having an insanely busy social schedule would be so much nicer if I could actually relax when I got home. I'm of half a mind that I might actually relax more if I *were* visiting and hanging out with friends, rather than going home to invaded and not fully unpacked apartment.
'K. Enough ranting. Must go organize myself so I can go home in the next 30 minutes.

Date: 2003-03-26 08:40 am (UTC)I'm feeling happier, although not much less tired. Yesterday was entirely time of my own, as I greeted my roommate with something along the lines of 'I'm tired, I'm grumpy, and I've not had enough time of my own'.
Which was good. And things *are* getting unpacked, slowly.

Date: 2003-03-26 01:46 pm (UTC)Oddly, I could have sworn I posted a comment on your blog, but it seems to not believe me and actually *be* there.
Oh. One thought:
"You are *not* a star!"
