If you really don’t see a difference then there’s no point in even talking about it.
You pour your heart out in public and air all this dirty laundry but you’re surprised when people “cross the line” with personal advice. You’re literally asking for it.
Anyway.
Do you live near any city operated animal shelters?
Of course I see the difference; I just wasn’t sure if it necessarily applied to me but I guess it probably does. I’ve thought about it more and it does. At least to some extent. But that said, once I put it down long enough, I don’t even miss it, so I’m not always thinking about it, I guess I just need more to do and keep busy. Which I guess is where the job part will help. And I know I share a lot/basically everything here but believe it or not, I don’t share every single thing, there’s a lot that I don’t, and I do turn the phone off and deal with those appropriately/without it, so I don’t think I drown it out by being here but idk. Maybe I’m just not as aware about that stuff. But I do need to work on sharing less I suppose, definitely an over sharer ha
And I get that and I’m not surprised at all by it, I definitely overshare or whatever, and I realize can be pretty annoying with all inaction and stuff, I get it, I’m not surprised, especially since all the information you guys are getting comes from my own posts, but I guess some of them are just coming across a little bit more mean or angry or whatever rather than helpful lately BUT that said, I’m not saying that’s necessarily wrong, I totally 110% get the anger and frustration, cause I’ve totally had zero action on like anything, for a while, or like one thing then nothing, and I get that’s extremely frustrating, heck I get very frustrated at my mother for her extreme inaction too yet I then turn around and do the exact same thing. So I definitely don’t want to be a hypocrite or loser or anything like that so I definitely need to change. But I guess my point here is I totally get it and I think I probably
need some of that anger and fire lit under my ass and most of them I actually totally agree with even if I don’t say that but it’s just that it
also seems like lately practically every post causes anger of some sort and there’s some that really were/are a little bit hurtful and not helpful. That’s all I’m meaning. But most are intended well, I get it, and for some stuff, like the job thing, I definitely don’t need any sugarcoating or anything and I actually do appreciate that you guys don’t do that, I need it, but there have been a few that were definitely a little unnecessary and/or a little cruel. But I get that the anger from the other stuff probably carries over into everything. And the vast majority are not. And you guys have been extremely helpful which I really do appreciate. I’m sure it’s just getting extremely frustrating at this point.
And I realize that at this point the only way to fix it is to actually get a job and/or go back to school and actually start
doing something because I realize actions speak a lot louder than words and I’ve definitely been big on the inaction.
Therefore, I think maybe I’ll even start applying tomorrow. For real this time. No bullshit.
Speaking of which, about the shelter thing, no, I don’t think so. I mean, idk. There’s a couple run by the towns like by animal control or whatever and a few private shelters but I think the town ones mostly just have like one person running them and/or volunteers helping and the private ones are all volunteers. There is a dog daycare down the street which I thought about applying for but I think it said online you need professional experience which I don’t have. But I may still apply because I’m pretty good with dogs/have worked with them quite a bit and do know a pretty good amount. But I think I’m also going to apply to the movies and some of the pet stores. I think the movies would be good because it’s probably mostly at night and I’m a night owl haha
I think I’m going to start applying tomorrow. You guys are right that I spend enough time on here that it would take far less time to just apply to jobs instead. Especially since the main reason I don’t is because I keep saying I want to get stuff done around here but then I don’t do that either so I figure if I’m going to be online anyway, I may as well just apply. Although that said, I think most require an actual computer, not a phone or tablet, so I may have to go to the library. But that’s not a problem, it would probably be good to get out. Otherwise, I’m sure I can borrow my mom’s laptop or just find mine. Not really sure where it is since I haven’t used it in forever.
but that’s not excuse. I’m definitely going to apply tomorrow. And I know, I know, inaction, you will all believe it when you see it, etc., but I am going to and I will even maybe try to take a picture of the screen or a screenshot of the email confirmation or something when I do so I can prove I actually did it because I know no one will believe it at this point if I just say I applied to some. Totally understandable though ha I should probably also finish my room and/or do that first, especially the laundry, but the job thing is probably the most important atm.
although I do have some of the magnetic ones I could maybe try as well as a license plate holder so maybe I could put those on. Although I worry the magnetic ones would fall off haha
