I am full of anger and frustration, mostly work-related. I care too much about a job that doesn't pay me anywhere near enough to care. I don't think my coworker Katlyn is coming back. She got her nose pierced and was pretty much told to take it out or quit. Ah, the intelligence of eighteen. So we're even more shorthanded. Joy. And I used to have three days off this week. I was really looking forward to it, even though half of it has already been taken up with family plans. But no. My manager asked me if I could work any of those days. I told him I had plans for Monday and Tuesday, but I couldn't make myself lie and say I had plans Wednesday. So now I'm working Wednesday. Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh.

Going to my grandparents' house tonight to spend the night, where I shall be asked repeatedly if I want anything else to eat and do several things for the sake of tradition, even though they are ridiculous at my age. I love my grandparents dearly, but six days of work in a row combined with not enough sleep might not be enough for me to be as patient as I need to be.
