I had a complete nothing day today. I guess it was good for me mentally. In fact, I physically avoided all of my housemates and stayed cooped up in my room literally all day.
I’m probably over-reacting, but this is how much I don’t like Jeff living back here.
And he and Andrew are complete buddies, so of course Jeff has been Andrew’s secret insider and referring back to him the state of the house, WHICH, mind you, is completely fine and clean as a whistle, but Jeff being Jeff, and having the week off before he starts his new job, completely cleaned everything over, including the oven, watering the garden (which didn’t need it) and of course tells Andrew everything he’s done, which makes it seem like the rest of us (ie me) haven’t done anything.
So me completely cleaning down the entire living room and kitchen before Jeff moved back in was a complete waste of time, wasn’t it?
Today, there was yet another note on the bench saying ‘I bought a new kettle, feel free to leave $5 each here :P’ I mean, who does that??
I then immediately couldn’t find my old kettle in the cupboard, so ran outside to the bin to see if he’d thrown it out, but it wasn’t in there and thankfully I found it shoved in the pantry. I had pre-warned him if he threw out my perfectly okay kettle, that I would kill him :)
I did have to laugh yesterday when the new housemate was asking Jeff if he saw himself as OCD and even hinted at being mentally ill. Good to see my housemates have picked up on that within the first 24 hours.
Andrew asked me how Jeff was over IM and I simply said, “Don’t even start…”
Then he goes, ‘Well at least my essential cleaning is getting done’ I closed the window. I didn’t have time for this trivial bullshit and those two buddying up again.

I’m near convinced I’ll be out of here by the time Andrew comes home from England. Andrew’s plan is to kick out both Jeff and the new housemate, but I already feel like that’s a cover-plan. I don’t feel like it’ll be true.
I’ve been saying it for a long time, but I feel it’ll be me who goes. I’ve lived here forever.
I’ve been keeping my eye out for another job for quite some time now, so we all know I’ve been expecting it and even half-ass planning it.
The problem has been trying to find a job that will work around the hours I currently do. I found one today I’m a bit keen on. I’m just hoping if I’d get an interview that they wouldn’t mind my other job, as I think the trading hours cross-over slightly, and that would suck. The good thing is I probably wouldn’t have to start until 10am, which would be a totally doable lifestyle.
Then when I was trying to apply for it, the window kept freezing from the Linkin login popup and not allowing me to continue the process, and I had to wonder to myself if that was a higher power trying to tell me not to apply for it or not. Hmmm. Coincidence?

If I got a pretty decent day job, I feel like I’d even be able to comfortably afford to live by myself, and now that I’m in my 30’s, I feel like I’m out-growing the share-housing situation. I’ve been doing it for 12 years. I’ve met some amazing people (Ryan, Josh, Braydon, Reece) and I’ve met some downright crazy people (Ayden) and I’ve met some fucking weird people (Jared, Aiden, Jeff). I should make a list of all the people I’ve lived with over the years.

I mean, I wouldn’t have a social life working two jobs, but let’s face it, I don’t really have a decent one anyway haha. Maybe I should just age gracefully and see if it’s humanly possible to save up for a house deposit?

I was thinking tonight at the gym that I’ve probably only got around another lifetime of the life I’ve already lived before I’m being lowered into the ground or burnt to a crisp :P
I think I’d looove to try and at least make my 80’s though. My body will probably want to give up on me after that age :P
