Family Dinner Feud

What a mixed up day, let me tell you!

I had a blast working on some (ahem) World of Warcraft tattoos (Yes! You're probably just as much of a nerd, so shut it!), and although I don't play that game, I think they are turning out awesome. So that happened. Then the tiniest thing was said to me and it completely ruined my day.

I'm sorry, let me start off by saying that I don't think I'm a very selfish person. I like to think that I try to think of others before any decision I make, but when it comes down to it you should always do things for you. Right? Especially when you do things for others all the time! So, when someone tells me that I should take someone's shift on Friday so they can have family dinner, and expect me to ditch my family dinner plans because "It would be a nice thing to do", then what am I supposed to do?

First of all, I originally had this Friday off, so I made plans for family dinner well at the beginning of April, then suddenly I am scheduled to work. Ok, so what, now I work in the morning so I'll cut my shift short so I can still have dinner. Problem solved. But now all of a sudden I get lectured because I'm going to Vancouver for a week during an important sale (which was announced after my flight was booked), and I'm trying to make this fucked up schedule work so I can still see my family, whom I rarely see, on the day that I originally had off. And you expect me to forget about that so someone else can see their family? While everyone is happy and cheery with their family, I get to work all day and not see mine until fall? Um, no, not my problem. It's not my fault that you fucked up. It's not my fault that you won't let someone work longer before they leave.

I'm sorry, it does sound selfish, doesn't it? But the way I'm seeing it is totally different, I assure you. In a way, everyone is being selfish because we all love our families. But when it comes down to it, it's about fairness, and I am not seeing the fairness in that. So, yeah, fuck you.

Anyways, that was that. In the words of Brit Drew, "Bitches aint shit."

But on a lighter note, I also got those photos from that photo shoot I did a million years ago. I think I am a little weird looking with different make-up and hair, but they still turned out awesome! I will post a few of my favourites in a separate post so it's not so...jumbled. Anyways, NERDINESS!!

I didn't get a good enough straight on shot, so this is going to have to do for now!
