It's all so difficult.
I have so many things that I need to do. Some of them have deadlines looming close, some indefinite.
The last time I talked to my Aetat contact person, he gave me the "homework" of writing an article about slugs, since I care so much about them. I've done a lot of research, but I can't find enough reliable sources, or any at all regarding some aspects. Have been to bookstores asking for books about slugs, but they have none. Deadline: Unknown. Was to be in the past, but the appointment had to be cancelled due to illness, no new appointment has been scheduled.
Decided I should see a psychologist/psychiatrist/whatever again. Would rather go to a private one than have a random one assigned to me at the policlinic (especially since I may need long-term help, and if I just go to the policlinic, they'll reassign me one if I move. Last time that happened was a disaster), so my doctor has given me a list of names, and it's up to me to write letters to them. I can't do it. Seeing my doctor again on the 28th.
Had an appointment with a job psychologist the other day. Seeing her again on the 31st. Until then, she wants me to make a list of jobs I would like and companies I'd like to work for. I don't even know how or where to start.
On the 9th of this month, I won an auction for some RAM. I paid the same night, and have yet to receive the item. For days I've been agonizing over what to write the guy - does the auction site not give the seller the buyer's contact info like it gives the buyer the seller's? But then he should've mailed me asking for my shipping address, right? Has he shipped the item or not? How do I ask him that in a way that doesn't make me sound like I think he's cheating me? (the guy has very good feedback, so I didn't think that likely.) What if the item is lost in the mail?
I just checked back on the site now, and he left positive feedback for me on the 20th. Maybe he waited until his bank gave him the snail mail confirmation of the payment (which is ridiculously slow) before shipping and giving feedback.. I suppose it's possible, but if I still don't get it tomorrow or the day after... What do I do? It gets more embarrassing with each day that passes.
Need to call my phone company and cancel my contract with them. Now that I have IP telephony and a cellphone, their service is redundant, and it's just stupid to keep paying for a service I never use. Just got the phone bill a few days ago, 278 kroner and not a single outgoing call. Worried that I won't get the point across to them that the line is not to be shut off as I have ADSL on the same line. Deadline: None really, but the sooner the better. Also should give my new number to various people/institutions before shutting off the old one.
Anything else? Well, I'd like to get back into roleplaying. But it's a bit too much for me, learning a new system and making a character from scratch. Not that important right now.
Should also mail my cousin and ask if he's gotten a DVD burner yet.
Oh yeah. On August the 10th, I was supposed to get a used chair from my former workplace. I showed up, but my boss wasn't there, so I went back home.. I bet she's just forgotten about it. I wonder if the offer is still standing...
It's been a really long friend since I visited my friend at her workplace too. I should go, one of these days.
I wonder how M---- is doing. I haven't talked to her in years, I think. I wonder if she still lives at that apartment.. It'd be awesome if she needed a roommate.. they've had a kitten at that apartment before.. not sure how catfriendly the area is, though. Odessa can't be an indoors only cat.
No, I'm not sure the cat would be welcome..
If I had more friends in Oslo, that'd be nice.. There'd probably be someone, or someone who knows someone who needs somebody to share the rent with.
I've decided to move. I don't think there's anything that can change my mind short of a certain person dropping dead or moving far away. My landlady isn't going to protect me from him. She doesn't want him here either, but she isn't willing to kick him out, thus, my satisfaction is not the most important thing to her. She lets him talk down to her and yell at her, leave messes and act as if he lives alone (not giving any considerations to others who use the same facilities), and it seems she's more set on pleasing him than me.
He's 33 years old, has a job and doesn't pay rent. I really don't see why she doesn't just kick him out and change the locks. Just because he's her son. I'd never let my family treat me that way.
It feels good to let these things out, even if the number of people who will read this number in the single digits.
