Kai's Diary

 Hiya folks! Let's write a little more of this story, even if I'm not so much inspired.
Last few days went mostly uneventful. I got a little used to the surroundings, discovered that everything important (shops, bank and whatnot) is way too far away and a long walk will be needed, and there are too many bugs eating me alive. But I found a bottle of scotch which I'm drinking right now (just a few sips, not the entire bottle).
I fixed my bike, that flatted a tire last week and lucky me it was pretty cheap.
Well... most of my days where very boring.
Alone in a new home, after cleaning, cooking, walking the dog, scroll social medias and watch true crime videos on the Tube, what else a human could do?
Absolutely nothing!
Just waiting for a call from the job.
And a call arrived, yesterday morning.
I already knew this call would come, eventually, but I honestly expected some more preparation then "hey, come to the office this afternoon, but very late. Nope can't be sooner." Holy cow, I was going to stay away all day and come back very late just to get some stuff I needed for my job and have a few minutes talk...
But Kai can't be stopped by little problems. Just really frustrated... but not stopped!
So I prepared myself to go to the main office of this company I'm going to work with. I watched what train I had to take, discovered I had to take three trains and not one or maybe two... whatever! I packed some snacks and a bottle of water, two power banks, two phone chargers, two eCigs (electric cigarettes, yes I vape, I quitted smoking an year ago but still need my nicotine fix) and extra liquid, plus an old phone that I use as an emergency eBook reader (my main is my everyday phone).
Did I pack too much garbage? Well yes, I know, but last time I went there my phone almost died on me and I had to buy a new charger, on the way back! It was a very boring trip, I need to be entertained all the time!
Well, this consideration is worth a story on it's own, but will be another day story so, for now, you won't know why Kai can't be left alone with Their thoughts.
Going back to yesterday: I was very stressed by all the trains I had to change. In my country, transportation, especially trains, doesn't work at all. Trains can and will be late, will stop at random binaries (not all the time but may happen so you gotta be on the look) and your ticket can't be changed if they messes up. I envy Japan for their trains.
On the bright side, the trains where comfortable, there was air conditioners (the day was super hot) and very silent people on board. Means no screaming kids. I'm not a bad person, but i like the quiet when I'm reading.
And that's what I did, I have been reading Murderbot, i book i heard about a few days ago and somehow convinced me. I'm liking it so far.
Plot twist!
During my travel on the train (can't remember but I guess it was the second one) a phone call tells me that the appointment was anticipated of half an hour... My eye didn't start twitching, but it's something it actually does sometimes.
Luckily enough, I had a backup plan!
Hell no! Luck isn't involved at all!
I decided to take the train an hour earlier to avoid anything would mess around with my trip. I hate being late.
Too bad it wasn't really enough, from the train station to the office I had to make a 30 minutes walk in... 15 minutes. No nice walk and probably a drink at a bar (even ice cream, why not?) Well no. After the last train arrived I had to walk really fast, partially running but it was too hot and the sun was burning my pale skin. I arrived at the office splitting the second, so proud of myself, panting and covered in sweat. But i thought about that too so i had a bandana with my that I used as a towel.
Now, I feel so smart, but yesterday I felt so stupid. My boss is known to be always late. So yes, I did split the second, arrived exactly in time... just to stay there, under the sun, waiting the dude would come and open the office because there was no one in there.
The next part is not a mystery. We talked for a bit, I grabbed the stuff I needed and went again on the street, walking my way back to the station. Got my train just in time and came back home... Well, not really, there was an adventure there too, but it's nothing really worth to tell, I hooped on the wrong train but noticed immediately and got the right one on the next station.
When I came back home, Godzilla already left for work, so I had my dinner (she prepared it, but nothing special has I hoped), took a long shower and laid on my bed, chilling with my phone until late.
Today I was intended to call my boss because tomorrow I'm going to start working effectively for them, and so I did. He told me "busy, call you later" and never heard of him at all. Now it's 1am so I'm guessing tomorrow I'll receive another last minute call.
I really, really, really, hope tings will go smoother in the near future. My brain need organization. I'm already full of chaos.
So much for "I don't feel very inspired to write on my diary". I think I did wrote a little too much.
I think this is the time for me to stop.
Kai out, ni ni folks!

Hi! I don't know who or if someone will read this. I am Kai and this is my diary.
It's free to read but I'm not going to promise you this will be very interesting, it's just a tale of a random human.
A little about me:
I'm Italian, not vey proud of my country sometimes but I don't think I'll be complaining about it here.
I'm a musician, composer, guitarist, studying piano on my free time and I privately teach music theory, or used to, but more on this later.
I love reading books, mostly fantasy and sci-fi, sometimes urban fantasy too (it's what I consider light reading) but not a huge fan of the lewd parts.
For movies and tv-shows I got the same preferences. Probably I'll do a list or my favorites someday.
I can draw, but I'm not an artist, I'm better at woodcarving but it take lots of time I rarely have.
I like running but since I injured my back I switched to driving a bike(mtb). Same pain on the legs but none on the back.
Of course I like videogames (a list will eventually come for my favorites too), also role playing games (but it is ages last time I played) and wargames, but those are very expensive and require other people interested so it's just something I like to read about.
Last but not least, I love pets, I got a dog and a cat and you will probably read a lot about them in this diary.
Of course there is more to say, but let's pass to the next section.
Personal stuff:
It's easy to talk about this things when no one know who you really are, so let's start.
I'm a non-binary, do you know what it means? You can google it and get a better explanation then I can give to you. But, if you feel a little lazy I'm going to give you the simple version.
I'm not female nor male, I don't really care about gender and it's a definition that will never be mine. Call me whatever you want: She, he, they, them, it, banana... it's all the same to me, those are just words. But I like variety, so, if you don't mind, try to change the pronouns you use to address me from time to time, or just use it if you don't want to bother.
I'm aromantic, or so I define myself, but my whole "feelings" situation is a very long and complicated story I'll probably leave for another time.
I also have/had depression, another complex topic, let's just say that I had depression for a very long time, but now I learned how to fight it and I'm living a "normal" life for the past five years... with some occasional down moments, but again I manage to rise to fight another day.
I have a girlfriend-partner-companion or whatever you want to call it. She refer to herself as she and as Godzilla, so this is how I call her online.
It's four years that we live together, we started at my old house in the city, and now we got a new home in the countryside. Lots of bugs btw.

And this is where this story will start. A story about me, Godzilla, doggo and catto, living a totally new chapter of out lives. So new that is going to be a new book, and I only used this joke a bunch of times now.
In this very diary I'm going to share my experiences here, my feelings, my funny stories or whatever will happen, I don't know.
If you think my English is bad, I'm sorry, correct me and eventually I'll learn.
If you want to follow me daily (don't know why you would do that but be my guest) feel free to do so on Mastodon, again it's free and this is the link: Kai

Now is time for Kai to sleep. See you soon folks!
