Dread

So, I was going to do another rewatch tonight, but instead I spent the night getting pissed off at my contracting company and trying to decide what I'm going to do about the future.

Right now, I really want to quit this job at the end of March 2013 (when my current contract is finished.) The only problem with that is that last time I tried to get a different job, I was unsuccessful... and I can't afford to be unemployed again...especially not in Vancouver.

I've been offered a job in China, but I'm not going to take it for financial reasons and because I don't want to live in China. (You can't access LJ from there.) 

There's a possibility my oldest sister could get me a job in Toronto - which would mean moving back east.

I don't know. I can't decide where I want to be or what I want to do. 

I have tickets to VanCon2013 and the first draft of a novel that I hate more with each passing day.... for whatever those are worth.

Anyway...yeah, I'll resume rewatches tomorrow. Hopefully I'll be in a better mood.

ETA: I meant to flock this, but then I forgot, and now I might as well just leave it.

Sadly, I have dreaded going to work for nearly 3 years now - and it IS horrible. It's nearly impossible for me to wake up in the mornings, and as much as I say it's because I'm a night owl, I'm positive that it's all psychologically based on how much I hate my job.

Anyway...yeah, I have to figure something out. This is getting ridiculous.

Alix, I'm sorry it has gotten this bad. That is so totally not a fun way to live. Work takes up more than 50% of our time in our lives and to hate and dread that much. That's no fun. I hope you figure out where the best place for you to be is. You deserve better.

Thank you! I'm sure I'll figure something out one of these day - but, yeah, sooner rather than later would be nice.
