AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

So, I finally tackled my room. *sigh* It was an endeavor and three quarters, let me tell ya. Why do I do this to myself? I'm serious; it's gotta stop.

This week was insane. Busy, busy, busy and I felt like I was left scrambling. *shakes head* I can't believe tomorrow is Monday already. The weekends just fly by. Blech!

As I was cleaning, I found a bunch of books. The sad thing? Most of them I haven't even read yet and were still in the B&N bags. Yes, I admit, I am pathetic. *eye roll*

Now my allergies hate me and my nose is all snuffly. It doesn't help that I'm cleaning AND getting over a cold. Snot thy name is annoying.

And that's about it. I have to clean off my bed so I can change sheets, get my clean blankets and sheets on and zonk out. Happy joys!

I'm Tired

This week's been crazy busy. *sigh* I feel like I'm running in circles and doing nothing but exhausting myself. Blah!

Looking forward to this weekend. I really, really, really need to clean. I can't begin to tell you how disgusting my room is. *sigh* Plus, I've been sick and I want to clean up all the ickies that have accumulated. I am so sick of blowing my nose I can hardly stand it. Ick!

Not much going on otherwise. Got a text from my friend, R. She wanted rec's for romance. Me? Recommend books? Never! Bwa-ha-ha!

I'm going to go to bed early tonight. I need the Zzzzz's. Ciao!






This is my new obsession music-wise. This chick's voice is...wow. Group's name is Halestorm. Her voice makes me think Ann Wilson of Heart and the chick from Evanescence. :)

Night!

Short, But Sweet

I'm still sick, though I'm feeling MUCH better than I was. Right now I'm just dealing with the crap in my head. Yuck!

Got awesome, stupendous great news in regards to my BFF. So happy for her and feel a giant sigh of relief. Things have been crazy stressful for her lately, so am crazy happy things are finally looking up. Yay! *happy dance*

I'm tired. Kind of cranky. I'm sleeping, but Nyquil makes me have bizarre dreams.

Um...yeah, that's about it. Ciao!

Wah! I'm Sick! :(

So I caught my nephews cold. They've both been sick over this last week and I thought I was doing what I should to avoid it, but obviously I didn't. Went to work yesterday and lasted until 1. I had a sore throat and was losing my voice. By the time I left I didn't have a voice anymore.



And my boss is not the most compassionate person in the world. When I first got in yesterday, she stopped by, asked me how I was doing and then told me to rest my voice as much as possible...then proceeded to have me on both lines AND doing callbacks. My job is the phone. When you can't talk, you can't talk! When I left, she actually had the gall to tell me she was disappointed in me. *shakes head*



So, I got home, crashed and slept for about an hour. My mom bought cold meds, so I took some of those, slept until 7:25, had my mom call into work because I literally had no voice this morning, took more cold meds and slept until about 1. My head feels like it's jam-packed and I'm blowing my nose every five seconds. It's extremely unpleasant. Now my mom and dad have it too. I so cannot wait to have my own place. Less likely this would happen, ya know?


But my mom made homemade chicken and rice soup for dinner last night and it tasted DELISH! Of course, as stuffed up as I am right now, I don't really have a sense of taste.



And so, I'm getting ready to go take some more meds and crash. I think sleep's the only thing that will knock this cold out. Then on Monday I get to face another "talk". Which is just stupid considering the fact that our company's policy is 10 days paid sick time and this will only be my 7th of the entire year. Sometimes I just don't see it being worth it, you know?



Ciao!

life

I sometimes think I live to torture myself. Ever since I made the decision to move out next year, i've been looking at apartments online.

I really hoped that by this point in my life I would've made enough money to buy my own house...and maybe if I hadn't made some really stupid financial decisions when I was younger...

Anyway, that's not where I meant to go. Since buying a house seems to not be a part of my immediate future, I'm looking at apartments. I'm trying to stay within a certain amount of miles from work; not so far that it's a pain to get there, but also not so close that my boss can take advantage of that.

Things are okay at the moment. My boss called me into her office to let me know that I had an additional 18 hours of vacation due to them switching me to a 40 hour position. I went in at 11:30 today and she's talking about me working two 4 hour days. I told her in all honesty that I would just like a day off...so, that might just happen in December. Yay!

I read Skin Game by Ava Gray. It was really good. Sexy, dark & kinda twisted. My favorite!

I'm off to bed. Ciao!

*yawn*

I am seriously pooped y'all. I went into work at 9 (as per usual) and got called in to my boss's office. My coworker's wife had a baby over the weekend, so he wasn't coming in. She asked me if I'd be willing to stay until close (7). So, I worked an unexpected 10 hour day. *yawn* Well, it was 9 because I took an hour lunch.

This weekend was pretty dull, but honestly that worked for me. Last week was nuts and I just wanted to veg. I was kind of maybe planning on going to my BB's Halloween party, but skipped out. 99% of it was because I was not feeling hot. The other 1% is because I didn't want to. Bad me!

I'm doing well, I suppose. Nothing horrible's going on, so in that sense I'm happy. Just tired.

Been looking at apartments. I found one that's still technically in Portland (though it's really Beaverton). It's a nice looking complex, has just about everything I'd need (plus close to bus) and it has a nice-size 1 bedroom for less than $700. I've made up my mind that I'm going to be completely paid off and out of here by no later than June of next year. I really, really, really need a place of my own.

Don't get me wrong, I love my family, but at the same time I'm completely sick of them. Well, not them so much as us living in each others pockets. It's tiresome. And I want my independence! Argh!

So, there you go. I'm off to go write or something for a little while before I crash. Night all!
