Love In The Asylum

• work - BoA raised the price on the cheaper product they offer this month, and people are just getting their letters, so the past two days, we have been inundated with calls, the majority of them idiots who can't be arsed to read their information, and just want to bitch and rave about how BoA is ripping them off and they WON'T STAND FOR THIS and IT IS NOT MY FAULT YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THE INTERNET WORKS, DICKWADS. STOP FUCKING YELLING AT ME. I DIDN'T RAISE YOUR DAMN BILL! I am also incredibly fed up of people who sign up for the product, forget about it (if they ever even knew what it was to begin with), and then call in four months later saying they never signed up, you're a bunch of lying liars, they never got anything, take it off now and give back all their money right now. God. Morons. I like my job, but I could damn well do without those people.
• the post office - do they ever not fail? I get most of my mail at my mom's, but she's between apartments right now, so she decided to have all our mail put on a vacation hold. Last time I was at the apartment, I filled one out so she could take it in, but when she went to the post office, they told her they could only put one hold per address - any mail going there, regardless of whose name was on it, would be pulled and tossed in the hold box. All well and good, except for the part where they are LYING BASTARDS WHO LIE. Why do I know this? Because I went to pick up diamminesilver's birthday present today, which according to the tracker was delivered yesterday morning, and found abosolutely nothing there with my name on it. Which means they delivered it to the apartment. The apartment we don't fucking live in any more. The only good part of this story is that diamminesilveris a chem major, and she promised me she would help me firebomb the hell out of the post office in retribution.
  
• myself - a mix of residual guilt over how badly I did spring quarter (brought back into mind by registering for classes), feeling bad about something really stupid, wanky, and overreactionary I said in a comm that I knew better than to say, guilt over not studying Japanese enough, and the seriously mixed feelings I'm having about my mom's apartment hunting. The problem there is the area she's thinking of moving into. My mom and her boyfriend don't have a car right now, and are thinking of not getting one in the near future, so they are looking for a place close to the bus routes. This would mean moving out of Rio Rancho and into Albuquerque, possibly into the valley (the really sketchy Hispanic gangbanger part of town). I don't have a car either, or a license. My dad and grandma don't mind taking me to my mom's when she's so close, but I don't think they would if she's living half an hour away, so I don't know how much I'll be able to see my mom if she moves into Albuquerque.  So I kind of want her to stay here, but I feel bad saying that - I know they really need to find a place, and a place that's accessible, and my input seems like it should be kind of minimal since I'm only going to be staying there a few weeks out of the year and maybe in the summer. At this point, I don't know how to get my feelings about the whole thing across without feeling like I'm being a whiny brat going on about what she wants without caring about anyone else.

Apparently the post office has some kind of weird anti-vendetta against me, because they seem to like to time it so that I get all my anticipated mail at the same time - for example, in March, I got like 4 college letters all on the same day. Today was one of those days.

I (finally, bastards) got my housing packet, which was not horribly exciting, as it mostly confirmed what I already knew (living in Faisan, dying in SLE), but still it was neat - it feels a little more real actually holding the piece of paper. And it had a survey for my dorm I have to fill out - likes, dislikes, hobbies, etc (which makes me think of Team 7 and Sasuke's "I don't really like anything") - and the reading list for SLE. Odyssey! *gasptwitchdie* Hate it hate it hate it hate it. Ulysses is an ass. And we have to read some kind of Jewish scriptures thing and a couple parts of the Bible. Hopefully I won't burst into flames. 

I also got my plushies today!!!!!!!! *deathglomps, for they are way too cute* How does Cloud manage to look emo even as a giant-headed plushie? It's absurd. And yet he does. And Naruto looks likes he just had kinky semipublic sex with Sasuke. Vey satisfied with himself. I think I have to go cuddle them now. And try to get some music on my new mp3 player, although that may be easier said than done.
