A number of little things are getting me down. First, I'm putting way too much effort into an application for a job I'm positively certain I won't get. Second, it's getting a bit hectic at work. I'm three months in, but I still don't know how to do half the stuff I'm supposed to do. That was all fine and dandy when there wasn't that much to do, but I'm taking over half the job of a girl who just quit and everything - shit, piss and menstruation blood - is about to hit the fan. Third, the stress at work is getting to me sleep at night. I keep dreaming about a task I'm supposed to do, something really tedious that I can never get it done before I wake. I imagine it reflects a feeling of falling behind on my work while awake. But at the same time the dream is so vivid, it feels like something I really should do at work but I just can't remember what it is. Fourth, the idiot brother of mine makes about twice as much as I do a year (I have an average Norwegian salary, which is respectable in its own right), just asked me to lend him £1500. Granted, his income varies with the seasons. But he's 31 years old, he's in a stable relationship and looks after a four-year-old. Why the fuck can't he learn to save for a rainy day? Isn't he supposed to be a responsible adult by now? For a man with an IQ of 125, he truly is a moron.
