Woke up early this morning for work. Work went by very slowly. I believe we averaged about a customer per hour that I was there. I pretty much just stood at the folding table, and folded t-shirts for 4 hours. At least they were brand new shirts, and I got to check them all out. There a shirt with a kitty on it! I must get it!
After work, I went home and ate a quick little lunch, then I went for a run at Point Pinole. Ran the majority of 3 miles, and went back home for dinner. Applied for two new jobs tonight, so fingers crossed on that. Now I’m just waiting to fall asleep since I got my written exam for the Oakland dispatcher position tomorrow.

Didn’t really do all that much today. Kind of just waited around till 2 when I found out if I worked or not. Spoiler alert, I didn’t work. After finding that out, I decided to go for a run because I don’t wanna be the fattest one in the group anymore. I went to Point Pinole, and finally accomplished something there I haven’t done in awhile. I ran back and forth, all 3 miles. I stopped at the midway point for about 5 minutes, but I actually ran the whole way back and didn’t stop at all. Didn’t really feel that tired at the end of my run either, so I probably could have run more. Goal right now is 5 miles non-stop on a track. I used to be able to do 4 easy, so 5 should be doable.
After running, I ate dinner and just lounged around, watching TV and applying for jobs. I feel like I’ve applied to more than 20 jobs now, and only gotten a response from 2 places. Not really discouraged, but still, wish I would get some more feedback. Oh wells, gotta keep my head up! Gonna sleep soon. Work at 10am tomorrow. Bleh morning shifts
Typical Sunday to be honest, even though I had a pretty complete day. Woke up to go exercise with the usual crowd. I think I ran a little over a mile and also did a few pull-ups. After work, we went to go get some sandwiches from Subway. Got myself a ham sandwich without condiments in order to be healthy for once. Maybe it’ll balance out those french fries from a few days ago. After running, I went to work. Had a bit of a debacle when I was parking though. I had to change clothes in my car, but the parking spot I choose had some lady on her lunch break sitting in her car right next to me, and I didn’t wanna change right next to her. So I was like “fuck it” and I drove off to find another parking spot.
Well, work was interesting for once. We got yelled at by probably the most asshole father ever. He was mad that we wouldn’t let his 3 year old son use the bathroom, so the kid ended up peeing himself about 5 minutes after they left our store. We’re not allowed to let any customers use our store bathroom because it’s against the law. We can’t be held accountable for customers going through our backroom. Also, there’s a public bathroom a minute walk away from our store, right across the street. Also, the kid had been crying about needing to use the bathroom the whole the they were in our store. The father obviously wanted someone else to blame for his own unwillingness to take his son to the bathroom. Felt like saying something to him, but nope, gotta be super nice about it. At least all the other customers in the store were sympathetic towards us after the family left. “Man that dudes a dick. Oh it’s totally the stores fault that your kid pissed himself. He needs to grow up.” Came from this dude wearing an awesome Darth Vader sweater. Cool guy.
After work, went to Ranch 99 to meet up with Andy, Chris, and Jessica. Ate some beef stew from VH Noodles, and then finally got some Earl Grey boba. Been craving that for awhile now. We sat around playing MSK for awhile, but w got bored and went home since we didn’t have anywhere else to go. Now I’m just sitting around at home watching TV! Gonna sleep soon.
