(Anonymous) 2022-12-28 03:03 pm (UTC)(link)teal deer; financial/id theft shit, crappy holidays, sleep fail, gift fail
These last two months have just been shit. First I find out some asshole stole my identity last year and ran up a thousand dollar bill in my name so I had to contact the debt collector AND the original company, and obviously file an ID theft report and put alerts on my credit and all that. I got so distracted by this that by the time I remembered Christmas was coming up, it was too late to put in any time off (we are encouraged to put in holiday time early since it's the holidays, but a skeleton crew must be present). I decided to just have what few days I did get and have a nice little Christmas by myself.
I got contacted by a family member who had planned to be in the area but I really wasn't feeling up to visitors for multiple reasons. One, I'd planned to already spend the holiday by myself, two, I don't want visitors AT ALL because I keep finding fucking piece of shit cockroaches in this fucking piece of shit apartment when it's been fucking 20 degrees outside for days, and don't want anyone to take an unwanted souvenir back home. And no, I refuse to meet in a public place and linger anywhere with all the plague rats still around. Three, while we do the obligatory text on holidays and birthdays, we have never really been close. So I had to be the bastard and "nicely" refuse the visit but wished them safe travels.
Had a list of things I was going to do but all the stupid little shitty things just kept pissing me off for no reason so I couldn't enjoy stuff. Even movie watching was a nice temporary distraction but I can't watch movies all day because my body's slowly turning into shit and needs to actually move around. So great, not being able to enjoy stuff I love. I decided to use the time to do a little cleaning and of course found more bugs, mostly dead but a few alive.
Haven't been sleeping well at all because of my shitty body (I'm trying to rebuild my muscle and work on core/pelvic floor... and I know that's a process, especially with getting older and with no guarantee it'll be 100% or even anywhere near the 90s) but it's been worse this last week, waking up in the middle of the night to pee, even when the need wasn't that great. So no real rest over the holiday. And I go back to work tomorrow.
Haven't heard back on the ID theft investigation/fraud report and I'm getting nervous. I don't want to be stuck with some asshole's bill.
And to top it all off, I think I whiffed hard on my Secret Santa. The recipient left things entirely up to the gifter. It took me a long time to settle on something I THOUGHT they would like (because IMO, Secret Santa is about the recipient and not the gifter) and was something within my actual ability. The gifts are displayed anonymously in a public internet area for all to see, so the gifter (and anyone else) can comment on them. And then the guessing game begins. Well... three days my gift to them was displayed and it's been crickets. The most they said about it was "oh I have no idea who did mine" and nothing more. I'm not asking to have my ass kissed, it's just driving me a little crazy that I don't know if it was good gift or a bad gift. Literally everyone's been guessed except for me, so we're just "formally" waiting for the last guess. The recipient seems to have disappeared the last couple days. It's entirely possible they're just being flaky (going by their past behavior), but I'm kind of stuck not being able to share the gift anywhere else until they guess.
Well, I don't know wtf is going to happen and I still have other stuff I need to do. But if you made it to the end of this vent, thanks for reading. Things feel a little lighter now.
Re: Vent
I'm glad that venting made you feel at least a little better!
Best of luck in the new year.
