A job. I got laid off. Things are getting tight.
I was in your situation this time last year. I got laid off in July, hired in September, and let go again in October. 💜
Supervolcano eruption.
A not insane family
My family is not insane, a girl I really like has an insane family… Wish i could go to my family events with her
If you stick with her, her insane family will become your insane family.
It’s easier when they are one ocean away, unfortunately I doubt it will work out for this reason
My wife and I both have insane families so at least it helps us understand each other
Peace and quiet, and some good nights of sleep.
On Tuesday November 19th, I had a stroke. My goal is to make it to next Christmas.
Hate to add to the grumble but I’m not feeling it this year. I don’t really want more material things (boo!).
Same. Everything feels unreal right now and it’s hard to keep the mask on.
For me it’s all the stress at work around the holidays (work harder before/after) then being invited to a ton of social things (I work from home and I’m happy for the most part being alone all the time). I actually love my job too so it’s more annoying than anything that everyone is in la-la land while I’m just wanting to get stuff done.
I hate showing up like a clown and not connecting with anyone; it’s all so fucking corny. I guess that’s married life though.
I’m traveling internationally to visit my fiancé and spend our first Christmas together. I just want the trip to go smoothly and take full advantage of the 120 PTO hours I’m burning without getting an urgent work call.
Many horror movies that I didn’t watch around Halloween.
Basically just to have enough free time to make my cousin a 3d-printed version of this laser-guided pizza cutter as a joke gift.
Wish comes true as I make it so, heading north to cottage!
Human rights for all
Unfortunately that’s too much for santa
Money? A job. My cat to be alive again.
Actual likely items, probably one game from steam that sibling buys me.
I like twizzlers
Food. I’m making just enough to get my bills paid, but I’ve been eating ramen and Mac and cheese for around a year. I just want to be able to have food in the fridge/cupboard. It’s getting so fucking tiring to never have basic necessities to work so fucking hard to keep my bank account in the negative. I’m so fucking depressed.
Now that I’m done venting, I would absolutely love to be able to get some gifts for my brothers and sisters but it just doesn’t look like it’ll be feasible this year.
Regarding food, is there a food bank nearby? There’s no shame in going to one, they are often trying to get rid of surplus food before it goes bad.
I mean, I would have been just fine with my brother getting me a gift card to a shop I like, but he says that’s boring and how I should ask for something else. The best thing about the gift card to this shop is that it allows him not to worry about getting something I didn’t want, even though I’m not super gift picky.
So, yeah, the gift card to that place, which sells everything from games (old, new, and related stuff) to anime/manga stuff to even just board games, is usually the only thing I ever can think of since I know I won’t ever be disappointed.
