Waves of melancholy

Hi everyone,
 
My basement will be done soon. I can't wait for it! :3 I am so excited. I am finally going to have walls for my room! XD I can also bring my main pc and start doing my own personal stuff. Unfortunately, I my boss announced me that I will be working for another full week. =_= The only day I will have off would be Wednesday. Damn it sucks! It can't be helped I guess. At least I will be making lots of money. That being said I can't wait for Eli to come back!!! @_@
 
Else than that, my cute guy didn't come back yet. :/ But I am expecting to see him again. He bought loto max and those lottery can be verified after the draw which is after Fridays. So I have to wait until then. There's also a possibility that he goes to another place. Damn! :( But I will be working full time for two weeks so we will see about that.
 
Now about the main topic...yes I do feel sad the few past days. Nothing happened to me but it's about the customers I'm serving. It happens from time to time to chat with them when there's no other customers in line. So I remember talking to an old lady. It was a memory from few months ago. She told me about her brother asking her to buy him a lottery ticket. He wrote the combination and gave it to her. But that paper was somehow lost and they found it only after the draw. Then guess what! When they compared their combination and the results, they would have won at least 18 millions. Such bad luck! Few months later her brother passed away. She was really sad and she still is. She told me that her brother was her only close relative. He was always caring for her, worried for her and was there no matter what. Now that he's gone, she feels pretty much lonely. She doesn't even have children. That's sooo sad. :/
 
Then, there was this other old woman customer who chatted with me yesterday. She is a regular customer and often tells me that her brother won 50 000$ with just 50 cents of lottery. He invested that money and got 100 000$ with interest. Unfortunately, he passed away shortly afterwards and didn't even have the opportunity to spend 1 cent of his money. He gave half to his only child and half to his grandchildren. So I asked her if she has any children. She told me that she is sterile so she cannot bear children. She doesn't even have enough money to adopt one because it is very expensive apparently. So she ended up working in a children daycare changing diapers for babies since it was her only connection to children. It really broke my heart when she told me her story yesterday.
 
Then there was this thought that maybe it can happen to me one day. I don't know...anything is possible. The last thing she told me before she left was that life is unfair....
