Happy Tuesday. The best part? It's almost over!
Last week I was super absent and I felt awful for neglecting you all and I am glad to be back to my normal self. I promised to share the real reason why I was in a funk and since it's Tuesday and I have yet to do it, there is no better time than now, huh?!
So remember all those super cool spring break plans I made a month ago?
You remember...the one where I booked a flight and bought new
luggage, both of which are not cheap?
Well, its a no go as of last Tuesday.
Long story short, mystery boy has to fill in for a girl who is going out of town and since he is the new guy at his new job still, he is at the bottom of the totem pole and kinda has to do what they tell him to do.
I will end up working about 15-20 hours more the week we had planned for me to go. Now, I know that doesn't seem like a lot, but I was going to already be home everyday by myself and since I was flying I wouldn't have a car so there wasn't really gonna be much for me to do during the day. I was totally fine with that but then issues that came up would have left me there for longer and I would have NOTHING to do and he would get home at whatever time.
Now, he usually gets off work around 8:30ish in the evenings so if he had to work more, there is no telling when he woulda gotten home at night. Kinda puts a damper on everything because there's not much to do at night and especially when he has to be up early again the next day and do it all over again..
At first, I was SO SO SO SO mad. Mad that I booked a not-so-cheap flight that was non-refundable (I can still use the flight within a year, I just can't get a refund), mad that I spent a lot of money on luggage ( that I did need eventually but wouldn't have bought it now) and mad that I wasn't going to get to see him after almost two months of not.
I went thru this roller coaster over the course of 3 days. First I was angry, then I was hurt, then I was just sad. And those 3 things alternated daily for the rest of the week. I then landed on angry and I didn't speak to that fool for a few days. He didn't try to talk to me because he knew I needed time to get over it and that if he called, it would just end in a fight and then I would restart the whole process again.
I finally talked to him last night and now we are on good terms again. It sucks, yes, but I just have to understand that things happen and sometimes we can't control them. He is working a new job and barely been there a month, so it's not really an option for him to say no to certain things they tell him to do.
I will see him soon enough and now I just have an entire week wide open and I am now kinda looking forward to it. I can knock out some school work and just kinda meander around and have some me time with no obligations. I would obvs rather do that with him, but it is what it is and I have came to terms with it.
In the mean time, we spoke last night and for a good while. We had to catch up on things from the past few days and then we ended up picking on each other like normal and ending on a good note.
Sorry that I neglected you all and I promise not to do that again in the foreseeable future! The good news is that I will have an entire week to blog my brains out and you will probably get sick of me!
Don't feel sorry for me or bad for me. I will see him soon enough and more good news is that I can milk this whole thing for a good while. And I might be able to get a banging graduation present out of it too! Any ideas on what I should ask for?
Hope you all have a great hump day! I haven't decided if I am going to share my girl time tomorrow or just do a link up. Either way, I hope you visit!
