Okay, so it’s been a while here. By a while, I mean a couple of days really. Not bad since I have been gone for more days than that before. What did I do for the last couple of days?

Let me see, Wednesday. Yeah! I decided to wear contacts that day. And what happened? My left eye got really irritated. And it was as if I was not wearing contacts at all on that eye. It was hurting and it was really red. So what did I do? I took the contacts out and threw them away. I’d rather work blind compared to having a red irritated left eye. Right after I took the contacts out, I felt relief. Granted I had to move my monitors close to me, maximize the view, and still move my face close to the monitors to actually manage the blurriness, but the shift ended with no incidents, so I take that as a win!

Thursday – yeah. The big announcement from my boss. She is leaving the company and her last day is Friday next week. I should’ve known that the reason why there were two people from the mother company visiting this week is because of the fact that the announcement had to be made. Was pissed? In a way, yes. I was promised a position that she was supposed to be making…And she never did it and now this. It’s okay – sort of – just because I wasn’t planning on actively looking for another job until after this project that I’m working on. But I just think that the position was dangled in front of me with no follow-through. There will be a few bosses coming onsite next week for the purposes of “helping with the transition”. I don’t know. Whatever. Moving on.

Today, again, nothing spectacular happened. I went to work, finished the shift, and went home. My hun and I got to hang out today. We watched a movie and two episodes of the Great British Baking Show. 

The move: Grandma’s Boy. A movie from 2006. Not going to say what it was about. Google it if you need to. But it was a pretty solid funny movie. There were definitely some annoyances, some questionable decisions, and some inappropriateness. I was telling my love that I don’t get why he can’t buy a TV to use for work while he was staying at his grandma’s house since grandma and her friends like to watch TV. I don’t get why he can’t shed a couple of hundred for a TV since he actually needs it for work as well as his side project. The sexual harassment this consultant experienced from this “game developer prodigy”. That will not fly. And it shouldn’t. And speaking of the “game developer prodigy”, why were his scenes just so cringy, and honestly, I just cannot stand him. I cannot with that character. He is such an a-hole.

The two episodes of the Great British Baking Show we watched were Pastry Week and Italian Week. We just love that show so much. Relaxing in a very weird way since it can really get stressful just watching them bake within a time limit. Can’t wait to finish this season and start the next one.
