We'll Both Be Safe till' St. Patrick's Day
I love this song, its one of my favorites from John Mayer called "St. Patrick's Day" and since I'm listening to a new version of it I just bought, I thought I would make a line from the song be my title post.
I hate asking for days off from work. I not only feel bad, especially when it has to be short notice, but it’s also kind of embarrassing. I hate doing it and its not that my employer is rude or doesn’t give me the day off, (although she has been known to be bitchy to me every once in a while when I ask for a day off and that does contribute to my reluctance to ask) I just hate asking for things like that and then getting them. I feel bad about it. I want to take my brother to this family night thing his school is doing tonight at a pizza place. My mom will be at work or she would obviously do it and I wouldn’t be having a dilemma here. The thought of my dad or my sister taking my brother to this event is laughable. They just wouldn’t do it. So now I have to call in a little bit and grovel and ask to have tonight off. I hate it but I suppose that’s all part of being an adult. Or maybe being an adult means that sometimes you don’t get to do the things you want no matter that it’s not for you in the first place, and you just have to go to work and not have the day off. But then again my brother is not the adult and it’s not his fault he can’t go otherwise. So I think part of being an adult is knowing that sometimes, for the sake of your child/sibling/sanity you have to ask for certain things no matter how embarrassed or reluctant you might feel about it.
Btw, got decent sleep last night. I went to bed around 4 a.m. or something and got up at noon today lol. I probably could have slept longer than that too.
“No way November will see our goodbyes, when it comes to December it’s obvious why, No one wants to be alone at Christmas time, come January we’re frozen inside, making new resolutions a hundred times, February won’t you be my Valentine, and if our always is all that we gave and we some day take that away I’ll be alright if it was just till’ St. Patrick’s Day.” John Mayer
