does everyone hate work this much?

I don't understand how people can go to work everyday, to work jobs that they only sort-of like, just because they need that paycheck.  I'm having the hardest time doing it.  I keep thinking I must be doing something wrong.

Tomorrow, I work a terrible, terrible, horrible split shift because I'm covering for a friend.  The stress isn't worth it at all.  I've been stressed out and unhappy since she asked me on Monday, and as sad as it is, it's been ruining my entire week.  Does everyone dread work this much?  Is it just me?  Am I just doing something wrong?

Today is first complete day off in over two weeks.  I'm trying not to let the thought of tomorrow's 10-1pm, 5-10pm work shift get me down.  Tonight, I'm going to see my friend Echo perform in 9 Parts of Desire, then I'm going to revel in my wonderfully clean room, which was wonderfully cleaned by my wonderful boyfriend.  He scrubbed the toilet and the sink, washed our sheets and our pillows (and the pillowcases!), and I'm so in love with him.  He is so sweet.  I can't wait to hang out with him once he gets done with work.

I'm going to try my hardest to pretend that tomorrow doesn't exist.

KIRA! Aw, I was happy to stumble across your blogspot thanks to your incredibly awesome domain/portfolio! (":

Also, I feel your pain towards work, which is pretty much why I'm taking so long to find a new job. Now, the problem with not working is that I just feel inadequate and lazy, which is equally as bad as having a shitty job with all the dreadful anxiety that comes with it. WHY IS THIS SO? Ugh.

I hope you soon, you can just live comfortably doing what you love and makin' money, because you're talented. <3 Just hang in there, and when the time comes... SCREW RETAIL!
