This has been at least a week with this head cold, and I’m still trying to work it like I’m not
it occurs to me that usually I’m the one in control. Getting sick doesn’t usually happen to me, in the normal course of events. I’ve usually got everything in a chokehold, my immune system is on the list. I must be in quite a situation to have gotten this low. I’m really pissed at the ex job right now. What did I go through retraining for eh? What was the point of all that? I’m too nice to everbody in this world, that’s a certified fact.
Why don’t I have it in me to be cruel enough? I don’t know, I really don’t.
I went to therapy though, then I talked to someone about getting my medicaid reactivated. Turns out we still might make too much….. this god forsaken state….. I swear. Again, I’m not cruel enough.
So after that I head over to the unemployment office. I’ve been putting it off. When I submit my claim it said there was something wrong, and having been on the other side I know what that means; get a human, so in person I go to the abandoned mall on the wrong side of town, btw, EVERY side of my town is the wrong side, it’s an awful city…. why can’t I find a hole to crawn into?! Dead mall, right, Metroplex in the East.
I talk to the worker there and it turns out that someone stole my identity in 2021 to file a fraudulent claim using my name. Of course. Why not?! So I have to make a statement for that, and my current claim. Who knows when I’m actually going to get unemployment, it’s still running after something I don’t know when I’m getting.
The thing that came out of it was that there was a hiring event for the city that they were interviewing for today a few miles away, so I trucked it right over, and I got my intervew. The job was tree trimming for the city parks, a job I’d like a lot. It’d be pretty cool to do, and the city is nice to work for I hear. Regular raises and a new mayor I respect.
I don’t know if anything will come of it, but it would be nice if it did. I’m so tired right now, I’ve been trying so much. I don’t want to have to give up my THC, because the pain and tiredness are enough to deal with as is. I can’t drink, physically, it’s impossible for me to process alcohol more than a beer or small tiple, so it’d be nice if they’d leave my cannabis alone.
