MWNews 249

More time to run.

Yesterday was a bad day. I can't really say bad, but I got fed up with things and almost broke.

I left work early, around 2:00 instead of 2:30. No big deal and there is nothing going on at work. It was raining but it stopped just before I left so getting to the train was not an issue. I stopped at Central and had a snack, so I was actually only one train early getting back to home.

I had been told that Shayla was going to be there at the shops, but Juanita was not getting off until 5:30, so I had a couple of hours to kill. My plan had been to just go home on the bus and leave the car for Juanita, but I knew that was probably not going to happen. Plus, I still needed to get Juanita a present.

Maeghan was supposed to be there also, getting her hair cut. This is when all the issues started.

I decided what I was going to get Juanita, but I had walked past the place where it was. I went back and got it. Then I started walking down the mall again and suddenly had to go to the toilet, so I had to walk back to get to it. After that, I sent Maeghan a message asking where she was. I was getting some groceries, so I told her where I was. She said she was on her way. 

By the way, this is way too specific and detailed and there really is no reason for that. I am thinking of just erasing it and starting over, but if you are reading this, then I didn't. If you are not reading this, then I did. Of course, I might decide just to leave this part in and erase all the rest. That might be confusing.

So, let's skip ahead. Maeghan was not happy with her haircut, still isn't. She said it was too short. It is short and I prefer long hair, but she can do whatever she wants, and I will like it. I think it looks good, but she hates it. She was crying about it, not to me, to her mother, but I heard about it. It sounds like the hairdresser did not listen to her or look at the picture she brought in that showed what she wanted. She paid extra to go to a real hairdresser, so she wasn't happy about that either. I think it is fine and she will get used to it. It looks good, even though I prefer long hair, but that is just me.

I had to stop for a while, and I was in the middle of a sentence. I have no idea what I was going to write but I had to stop because the big boss came in. Since there is no one else here, he had to talk to me. His morning routine, talk to the little people. I had to stop and pretend I was actually working, so if I have lost my train of thought, it's not my fault.

I am back for a bit. Not sure how long. 

Maeghan was upset, Juanita was working, so I asked about Shayla. I was told she was waiting on a train while there was a holdup on the tracks. Now during the evening, I was told at least four different stories as to why she was stuck on a train. I will try to list them as I heard them.

1.  Someone had jumped in front of the train, so they were waiting for them to move.

2.  It was going to take two hours for her to get here because they had cancelled all the trains.

3.  She was in Strathpine, waiting for a train.

4.  She was on a bus.

5.  She was waiting on a bus.

6.  There were no buses running.

7.  She was in Petrie and there were no trains to Morayfield.

8.  She wanted Juanita to come pick her up somewhere, but she wasn't sure where she was.

9.  She needed money because she had not eaten all day.

10. She was at the train station in Morayfield.

I think there might have been a couple of more explanations, but you get the idea. She was supposed to be at the shops with Juanita at 11:00. I was told she overslept. We picked her up at Morayfield at 7:00.

Now I could go through all these excuses and explain why none of them could have been true, or some might have been partially true, but that would just piss me off again. I was at the point where I would have told her to go home. Can't do that because she is actually the only one who will, on very rare occasions, come visit us, so I don't want to upset her too much, although if I was deciding these things, I wouldn't care if she did not come over anymore. I might have given her more indication that I was upset than I should have, but this is not the only time these types of things happen. It is the same excuses each time she comes over. She says one thing, or makes plans to do something, and then never shows up or is delayed so it no longer makes sense for her to do it. The only reason she is coming over now is to get William's old phone. It's not to visit or anything, just a free phone. But I won't waste time explaining all that anymore. She is at the house now. Probably leaving as soon as possible. It's no longer of interest to me. Plus, I as interrupted again, and I forgot what I was saying.

Maeghan has done all her ComiCon planning. It is next weekend. She and her roommate are staying on the Gold Coast for three days. She couldn't find a cheap hotel, so they are staying in a hostel, or something like a hostel. It is a pod motel. Basically, they get a bed, with four walls around it but it is only size of a bed. Nothing else there. I have no idea how that is going to work for them. Plus, she has to take her small wheelchair and the battery on that does not last long. I have no idea how she is going to recharge it or if it will last the whole day. I won't, but she has two. Even then, it will not last a day. I am sure she has thought about that, but I will need to ask her anyway to make sure.

When we took her home yesterday, the garage door was open and the door to the house. I went in to make sure it was ok, but there was no one home and I was really worried about it. I checked all the rooms and didn't find anything. Maeghan called her roommate and she said she was out with her mother and would be back soon. I didn't want to leave her there alone, but I thought that would be insulting to her as she is a grown woman, so we left. I asked her later if everyone had come back and she said they were all home now. The door being opened is still a problem, but I am sure if anyone had come in, the bird would have gotten them.

Shayla and William were arguing when I went to bed last night. I have no idea about what, but William is starting to have a problem with Shayla as well as me and Maeghan. I have no idea for how long they are going to stay. Juanita told her that we were not allowing people to move in with us anymore, so I hope that is not Shayla's plan. I don't want it and I certainly do not want her and her friend to move in. If Juanita wants to blame me for not allowing it, that is fine with me.

I am going to have to end this entry. I keep getting interrupted. Guess I will try again next week, or if we are lucky, over the weekend at home. I know this one is not very good, but it is the best I have at the moment, given the circumstances.

Until next time, 

Later
