I've found a few cheap options online, once my sister gives me the money she owes me and I can get it in the bank, I shall be ordering some. The woman who tested my eyes told me to get them cheap as she reckons I will have to change them in a few months time because my eyesight is going downhill fast.

I really wish that people would stop insisting that I am not a morning person just because I'm not 100% awesome when I'm opening. It isn't that I can't get up and be totally fantastic in the morning, it is that I almost never work mornings, I only open maybe two days in a month, other than that I work the late shift and my whole sleep schedule and everything gets thrown out of whack if I have to adjust to a seven hour change in my schedule (thankfully today is only a 3 hour schedule shift as I've been working a mid-shift up in arts and crafts so not too bad). The fact that if I have to open two days in a row I'm a big old ball of sunshine when I get here on the second day should be proof enough that it isn't an issue of me not being a morning person, just an issue of me needing to adjust a little.
Also whether or not someone is a morning person they will not appreciate you joking about how they look like they need a coffee, while they are sipping on coffee. Kind of like how telling a sick person that they look like crap isn't going to make them feel any better.

Surprise! 3 or 4 weeks without a day off.
Not that I'm anything more then a little irritated. It's not like it hasn't been a lot worse before, I just feel like my life revolves around work right now. Probabably because it does. Fucking depressing.

Need to find a place with more jobs. So I'm going to San Diego. Unfortunately, I grew rather content here in 29. So I accumulated a shit load of furniture. I guess it's time to have a garage sell.

Rent a trailer? And I haven't been to southern California in a while so I'm not really sure what the market is like. What kind of work are you looking for?

I keep thinking of the terrible comment my friend said to me a while back. She said something like "Women who claim not to shave because they don't care what men/people think are actually just lazy." Recently I've been busy so shaving my body hair off has been number 300 on my priority list. I don't give much of a shit, if I had the time to take a long bath and relax I might have done so, but that's not the point. The point is that I remembered the conversation recently and now every time I see my legs I remember again.
And then recently she made these comments about my new athletic interest being 'butchy'.
I've known this girl my whole life, and I don't understand how someone who is pro rights for sex workers can be so completely down on women in other regards. Just because you feel like you have to have smooth legs 24/7 doesn't mean people who choose not to are pretending to be feminists so they don't have to shave their legs. And being an athletic female doesn't require one to be 'butchy' or 'built like a man'. Just. ... Head desk. We have clearly changed since childhood.
I'm going to go study now. So many tests. So far behind. Why can't I stop thinking about useless things and focus.

I know a loooooot of feminists who are "pro-sex work" who shit on other women all the time, particularly women of colour in my experience.
But fuck her. I haven't shaved in months. I love pit hair and keep it grown year round, and honestly I think I shave my legs mostly for other people and the boyfriend, I'm not brave enough to wear a skirt or shorts with leg hair yet. And I don't mind the smooth feel, I got to admit, its just what's the point in the winter when no one is seeing it? I'm also trying to find a non-shaving method that doesn't hurt like fuck, its so long now I knoooow its going to clog a razor and I dont' want to waste a blade on one shave.

I don't shave my legs in the winter, the reason why I shave is because I like the look smooth legs but if they are covered in pants that doesn't matter, plus I have a tendency to get goosebumps from the slightest draft of cold air, leading to terrible razor burn if it happens while shaving, so for me shaving my legs is a warm weather thing, pits I keep shaved all year as anti-antiperspirants work better that way and I break a sweat fairly easily when I'm being at all active. Usually at the end of winter I do a quick once over with Jake's electric razor to avoid the whole "wasting a blade in one go" thing.
Also I do not get why some people think that there is anything inherently manly about being a little athletic, some of the girliest girls I know are insanely active, like my sister in law who can out bench Jake or my friend Jess who is a bodybuilder.

Maybe she's not a real friend. Because a real friend would understand you not having time to shave your legs and a real friend would say "You go and grab life by both hands and shake the living crap out of it and enjoy every second."
Oh and you are procrastinating, just like I am because I'm going to have to scrap 70,000+ words I've written on a new story and start from scratch, because I'm reworking the entire thing - which just feels like a whole lot of hard work right now, and I'm too friggin' over everything to be assed.
There are times when my shaving my legs actually makes the headlines in this house. I'll show my shaved legs to Mr bat and he'll say something like "Well I was getting pretty close to calling in the loggers to deforest those legs of yours."

Damn, Valhalla... that's so frustrating. How did feminism become so deeply unfashionable that many otherwise-intelligent people STILL lack the most rudimentary bullshit-detector when it comes to sexism? It's a fucking mystery to me.

Then she'll just get all catty and passive aggressive at work. She leaves in about a month so I think I'll just unfriend her after then, until that point I will just post all my whining about work on here.
(Yes I know I'm totally conflict avoidant)

At that point, though, it wouldn't really matter what you rant about on Facebook because she won't be working there. Unless you just don't want to be Facebook friends. XD
Also, we should be Facebook friends. I promise I won't be passive aggressive if you bitch about g.net.

She is will kind of still be working with the resort, just as a vendor, so I won't see her but she will still see my boss and the GM on a fairly regular basis so I'd still rather her not seeing work rants.
Also I just sent you a friend request, fair warning I will facebook stalk you.
