So my boy what’s driving the craving today? Well I got to thinking about the drink last hour or so of work. The idea just lingered as I kept reminding myself the craving is only in your head. ...

Who Cares?

Tonight I am depressed and sick of third shift. I’d like to be back home in my bed hiding beneath the blanket forgetting that the outside world even exists. And I’m a bit hungry…

Well Now

It’s weird just how quickly my body adapts to sleep at night up in the morning. Like a sane person I cooked out last night. BBQ chicken breast, mashed potatoes, corn cobs, green beans (for mom...

That Sucked

So a flat tire when I went to leave work. Then Pep Boy’s tells me I need all new tires. THEN as I’m getting into bed I notice a wet spot. One of my cats decided to mark territory. It was after 2...

Evil forces are conspiring against me. Instead of bed I’m at Pep Boy’s getting new tires after a flat this morning… 😵


I was pried out of a deep sleep in my roasty toasty bed fifteen till ten. Argh! When I stepped outside I immediately got a chill in my bones. Had the heater on full blast till I got to work. S...

Tangle Of Anxiety

This is eating me up inside. Last week I screwed up again and drunkenly left the house. Yes, arrested again. Every time a bit of normalcy comes into my life I have to screw it up. I got no answ...

Survey

How many cars have you ever owned? 3 Can you do math in your head well? At one point yes. Not so much anymore. What’s your least favorite chore to do around the house? Scrub the tub. What’s your...

Johnny Paycheck

Payday. Tis nice. Gotta put more in savings which will leave me with only $700 more to save up for the lawyer then $2500+ for the root canal and crown. Sigh cries in poverty

Tell Tale Sign

Yup. The Paxil is working. No matter the porn I watch or previous sexploits I fantasize of getting off just ain’t happening. The price I pay for help with my mental illness. I’m reminded of wh...

This Feels Weird

I was dead ass tired this morning at work. When I got home I ate and relaxed for a little while before finally getting into bed after 10 AM. I dozed off somewhere after 11. Though I woke up a f...

Fudgetastic

I woke up this evening with an aching back (going on four or five days now) and a majorly wicked sinus headache. I blame my sinus trouble on my coke binge three years ago. Some aspirin and anot...

Harumph!

At the urging of a friend I created an Instagram account. When I logged in the recommended feed showed half my family and old friends. I immediately had an anxiety attack. I’m a private person...

What Dreams May Come

Government Red Tape

When I got off work this morning (Tuesday) I went by the bankruptcy lawyer’s office to drop off all my paper work. Now I just need to come up with $1,400 to make my other debt go away. Ugh! See...

Back To The Fold

Almost thirty minutes into my shift and already wish I was back home. I feel fine tonight. Just an overall sense of blah-ness. Tried this broccoli pasta tonight now I can’t get the taste of g...

Lunch Was Good

One of the strays has been sleeping on the body pillow on the back porch. ‘Tis cute. I’ve gotten caught up on rest last night and today. Needed it. Off again tonight so will probably screw aro...

Whore For $

I’m off.. So bored I’d gladly work overtime.


Book Description

I came on my own volition.
I am the man that got away.

Work -
Tonight I clocked in at 4:30 PM and it was suddenly Wednesday when I worked 6:45 AM to 6 PM with only an hour lunch break and on my feet the rest. I was trying to relieve Logan in the back who was frying chicken both for our loose case and boxed hot case so he could go to lunch. Instead I got mixed with a redneck who wanted a Philly steak and cheese. I made his sandwich to order only to be confronted with the elderly gentleman behind him. He, to this shit. o, wanted a Philly. I was annoyed. Angry. Granted chicken side cooking sucks At least you’re away from the customers. I can, “pretend”, like I’m cooking chicken in the back but dick around for ten minutes, which actually rarely happens. You learn to smile and accept this shit. Made him his sandwich, didn’t stop to ask the next customer if he needed help. Instead, went straight to the back and told Logan to take his lunch, I was taking over, box up what just came up out the fryer and we’re good.

It was just one of those days. People wonder why I get stoned before work.

I.
Am.
Robot.

Tell.
Me.
What.
Is.
Next.

I’m versatile.
Put me in any situation and I come victorious.
Even on the bad days.

So when I go the hardcore bitch mode of my assistant manager on Wednesday after my eleventh hour there. I got irate.

I know she does a job for two.
Her boss/my boss sucks ass.
But fuck....I’m part time.
If you want to bitch and yell about the shit that the full timers didn’t do…bitch to them.
DON’T MAKE ME DO THEIR FUCKING SHIT THE LAST HOUR I’M THERE!
I’ve been working for this slave camp for three and a half years.
I lost my insurance last year due to me being stupid and the store manager catching on. Which is actually a big blessing. I haven’t missed a day in a year.

But I’ve been there for every shift.
Sleep, no sleep?
Fuck it.
Show up for work.
The computer takes over on schedule and now I don’t qualify for our good insurance.
I have to take the government stuff?
OK.
I’m a democrat.
Lifelong.
BUT FUCK YOU OBAMA!
Don’t tell me what to do.
I’ll go another year without health insurance.
I want my good Blue Cross Blue Shield Back.
Make my job give me the hours back for insurance.

People close to me say I need to see a therapist.
After A.A. and an almost check in at rehab.
Maybe I do need anti-depressants.

This is a rant with no one I know reading this.
Its liberating.

I welcome ProseBox into my life.
