I've worked 57 hours in the last week... plus seven hours today. Eight day stretch. I'm dead. Beyond dead. I've already sat through about 3 massage cycles in our recliner and my back is feeling semi-normal again, if still tired. Now I have two days off to recover a little. More later. I'm going to take a long, hot shower and collapse. blackeyed
johnnyk47:
damn just wait till you have worked 21 days straight.... oh man now that works you dead. Hope you get some good rest.
northern:
Just try to console yourself with the thought of a nice paycheck for all those hours.

I thought you were now going to work a regular week of shifts. Or did you take extra shifts?

My Step-sister Erica's 21st birthday was Friday. My Dad, Step-mom, and I all drove up to go party with her and about 15 other people. At that point, a little family drama with my Mom had me in the mood to blow off some steam. Erica rented a party bus with crushed velvet seats and a bone-rattling sound system. I still can't hear out of...

Sounds like Erica had a blast of a time. You are lucky you don't get hangovers too hehe, I don't drink so I don't know what it is like.

Third shift eh? sounds good to me.. I love my night shift work.... keeps me out of trouble and I can listen to whatever music I want to.

Hope the rest of your week goes well smile
northern:
I'll stop by some night and keep you entertained.

I'll even resist the urge to tell you about night shift store clerks who have been killed. biggrin

Fourteen drinks and no hangover?

Wow! I don't think I've ever had that much to drink. I've had about half that, and then been terribly hungover.

Just got off work. I'm really tired. I ran out of steam about halfway through my shift and had to drag myself through the rest of it. Usually I at least get a second wind. I have Friday and Saturday off this week... which practically never happened before. One of the perks of my new position... weekends off and more predictable hours.
I had the...

Been very busy the last few weeks. Comes from actually having a social life for once. Now I'm back to my routine of work, sleep, and blog. I've been unofficially promoted to a full time third shift position. Despite being a newer employee, everyone seems to think it's in the bag for me, and I'm already scheduled for third shift after Fri. the 13th of...

that sounds soooo yummie! ( this comming from the person who hasn't eaten in like two days.. a corndog would sound like a meal fit for a queen right about now) its been so long since i made food.. but i think the last thing i made was beef pinwheels... good luck on the promotion
johnnyk47:
Omg you made me hungry... now I have to go cook up some of that. mmmm ..... good luck with the promotion, hope you get it. It is good to have insurance....then again I get free health care... but the additional benifits help too.

Much better. The last two days at work were very busy, but not awful like Thursday night was. I have tomorrow off, and plan on sleeping pretty much the whole day if possible biggrin I also noticed that after almost a month and a half at my new job, my feet are adapting to spending 40 hours standing at work per week. I actually forgot to...

Seriously - you have to eat your food when you make it, not sit down at the computer while the food sits there for anyone to take.

Glad you're adapting to being upright for hours at a time. smile

thanks so much for your comment =)
i just really needed to know i'm not being a crazy bitch for not wanting to go back to this friendship.
i got over being mad at her a long time ago, and while i don't hate her, i don't really like her either. i just have to come up with the words to tell her that i forgive her but i don't want to be her friend.

I'm very tired, and very mellow. Having a lot of happy non-thoughts. This is probably partially due to the huge kick-ass margarita I had at dinner tonight. Yum. I'm off for the next two days and plan on enjoying myself and spending as much time sleeping as I want.
News on the tattoo front: I've got the money, now I've got to get it done....

Yeah the Shaolin monks were ace! they did proper displays with weapons which included duels that looked as intense as any I've seen in a movie and they also did mad stuff like balancing on beds of nails or breaking bricks on there heads biggrin

Damn shame about Steve though, a lot of peeps have noticed the irony of him being killed by a creature that is rarely lethal, he'll be missed.

Okay, maybe I'm just not up on the social niceties. I recently moved back to my hometown, officially. Now, there are certain places in my hometown I prefer to avoid. The church I went to growing up is one. People have asked me why, and I told them that I had a bad experience there, and I don't want to go back. When they press...

Makes total sense to me.

I've never understood why one is supposed to pretend to be friends with people they never liked in the first place.

That's why I have no interest in going to a high school reunion. I never saw these people outside of school, and many of them weren't particularily nice to me anyway.

Mind you, I might feel differently if I were wildly wealthy and could arrive in a helicopter or something.

And I don't know why people should feel it's their business to try to get you to go to church.
johnnyk47:
I understand completely. I have grown up in a similar way, i went to church... peer group in that church didn't really accept me and shunned me. So i stopped going and i dont really intend to go back. They didn't like me so i don't see a reason to go see them and hear about their lives like im their best friend.

I'm in the same boat as Northern too... I did not go to my first semi-reunion because the people at school made fun of me because i was weird and different. The people that i wan't to keep in touch with were my friends in high school. The others ? i havn't heard about them and don't really care if i ever do.

I have stopped being religious in the full sense of the word.... and why the hell do people care? i don't know... i really dislike when someone tries to put their beliefs on me and try to make me go back to church .... "you'll go to hell", oh really? ok then ill see you there.

I think I fixed my computer! I kept on getting errors where my screen would suddenly wind up full of weird colors with everything on it a half a size too big. It happened several times, and I was beginning to worry a catostrophic crash was in the near future. And I really can't afford a new computer right now. Fortunately I had Microsoft do...

DIET Mountain Dew?

Are you the same person who was horrified by the mere notion of that just a few months ago?

I always get mistaken for a computer whiz. I hate it, cuz I really know nothing. I only know enough to do the things I do, and little else. Yet people think I know a lot. Maybe it's the glasses.

Congrats on the size reduction!
johnnyk47:
Good thing my best friend tagged along with my EX so none of MY stuff was taken....and he kept the keys to my house so its all good. You finished moving yet? hope you have... i dreaded moving.. so much lifting....specially when people think your stronger then hercules and make you lift heavy shit.

Holy cow, I can't believe the month is almost half gone already. My brother's back from New Mexico. I really missed the big lug. My paycheck from this Friday is already earmarked for certain expenses, but I'm looking forward to the paycheck anyway. At least I can finally top off my gas tank and maybe make a trip up to CF to move more of...

Note to self: watching the Notebook when I'm already in a sappy mood (not to mention the fact that my beloved Grandmother is beginning to show signs of early Alzheimers) is not a good idea! surreal
northern:
Why would watching a movie about a computer be a problem when you're in a sappy mood?

Get it - Notebook - computer.

Ahh - nevermind.

I've never seen the movie, but I know which one it is. Looks very sappy.

Why were you in a sappy mood?

Have I used the word sappy enough?

Hey thanks for commenting on my new set kiss yeah, I love my boots loads (I get to be a bit taller in em wink )

I worked 46 hours in the last six days, I'm ready for a break. My family's going to be gone until Wed. at least, so I'll be on my own... I can stay up until all hours of the night without my Mom lecturing me, I can nap when I want to, watch what I want to and do what I want to for 48...
