Kona-kitty is doing the same sad act that Darjeeling did about a month back and I'm crossing my fingers and hoping it's for the same reason, i.e., hairball. She won't eat and she's been acting lethargic since yesterday, turning herself into a kitty loaf in the middle of the floor instead of playing like she usually does. As far as I can find (and trust me, I've been searching), she's only thrown up once and this morning. In it were a few chunks of food and a button. A freaking button. The hell, cat? But as much as I'd hoped that was the reason for her not eating, she still is uninterested in foodstuffs.

She's a larger kitty than Darjeeling, so I'm not as paranoid and worried as I was about Darj'. Also, it helps knowing Darj' got through it just fine and eventually threw up the hairball that had been harassing her. That said, if she gets a lot worse I'm taking her to the vet. Or if she isn't better by Monday. She's still a kitty and I'm still a very worried kitty-mommy.

:(

And completely unrelated: ARGH. You know, I just wrote a post about how I absolutely hate hate hate that state of being where you don't know whether or not something is going to happen or WHAT is going to happen and having to exist in that state of not knowing is the most stressful and nerve-wracking thing for me. And guess what! That is exactly what my new job is! Or at least, the scheduling. I am sitting here at 20min until 2pm, not knowing if I am supposed to go into work at 2pm or not. Holy fucking what the hell is this shit? I called last night three times and was eventually told (at 9pm, btw) that I might be scheduled for 2pm-close today. So I called today at 10am, 12pm, and 1pm and was told first that they didn't know yet and then that they STILL didn't know yet and would call me back ASAP.

I know they're busy and I know they have to be stingy on staffing, but holy damn wtf? How fucked up is it that most days I have to call the day before to see if I'm going to work, let alone the day of? How many things could I be doing instead of stressing out about scheduling? If this doesn't clear up soon and some kind of order intervene, I am just going to go find something else. Because this stresses me way the fuck out and is in no way shape or form worth minimum wage. Not when I'm only getting something stupid like 10 hours/week anyway.

Rarrgh.

Okay, it's quarter till and still no call. I'm just going to assume I'm not going in and my phone is being turned off in 3...2...
