Disillusioned at best
I’m sitting here at one of my jobs watching the Grammys, watching how annoyingly lame the musicians are, how great bands keep losing to “Viva La Vida” by Coldplay and how I am officially over Katy Perry. I even called up my friend to tell him “I am soooo over Katy Perry!”. Not that I was really into her music, per se, but I did like some songs, however after watching her blatantly lip sync “I kissed a girl” tonight I’ve decided, its over.
‘Being over’ should be applied to a few facets of my life. I’m over being broke, working at a shitty underpaying job that utilizes zero skills I have. So damn over it. I understand this “economy” is affecting everything and I should hold on to this job for dear life however I work with people that have worked here for over a year and they still get paid the same as I do. Minimum wage. I work two days a week, I would like two more days however Mondays are for this guy named Scott, who works here once a week “Just because” and he usually calls in someone to cover his shift because of various excuses. They should just fire him and alternate the day with everyone else, but that would make too much sense. I’m so reliable, I’ve never missed a day or called in sick, mostly because I know no one will/would cover for me. I’m over it.
M.I.A is performing right now on the Grammys, she’s due to give birth tonight, that’s amazing. They are also singing “It’s Over”, how poignant.
Anyway, I’m dreaming big and fantasizing over this summer and what I want and will do, however reality is closing in on me saying “nah nah nah honey, you ain’t got the money” and I’m over THAT. I’m over not being in school, I’m over being treated like an idiot at my job, I’m over not having cash and stressing over it. So, I think I’m gonna solve it.
