Can't Sleep
There is one problem with sleeping all day...

I can't sleep that night. I wasn't tired so I didn't go to bed until about midnight. Then, I wake up at 4:45, unable to fall back to sleep. I'm yawning so you would think that would mean I'm tired. I think I am. But I'm so uncomfortable and my throat hurts so bad, I'm not tired enough I guess.

So, I think I'm going to shower and go into work early. Make up an hour of my time I took off this week.

Today...
I am glad I took today off from work. I ended up getting sick this week and it was nice to have a day to do nothing but lay around and sleep. I slept all afternoon too!

I have a bad sore throat that just won't go away. I've been trying everything. I hope it starts to let up tomorrow since it's back to work.

I've been taking that airbourne stuff that's really seemed to help kick the rest of the symptoms out the door. The sore throat has latched on and is just not letting go.

How's everyone else doing?

So, I had a humerous night...

Corine asked me if I was working at Target tonight.  I had the night off, but needed to go in and see what I could do about giving up my shift on Saturday for some unexpected plans that came up today.  So I hang around work since I'm on the late shift this week and she gets off at five.  We drove to Target and did the shopping she needed to do.  

We were talking about getting drinks, but I was being begged to stay and help out b/c they were hurting for help tonight due to a combination of poor scheduling and call offs.  So, my mind starts working....  if they need that much help tonight, I'll stick around and work if it helps me get Saturday off.  Sure enough, I talked to my LOD and she had no problem with finding someone else to cover Saturday for me.  

Mind you I was dressed for work at the hospital.  I had on business pants (kind of khaki like) that are so long I have to wear my 3 1/2 inch spikes so I'm not trampling on them all day and non-red top.  So to stay, my LOD gave me a red polo w/ our logo on it and requisitioned a pair so shoes to get me to stay.  We were all laughing about it all night.  It definitely a big help, but it was funny too.  I buy a couple candles and stay all night.  

Well, that was my night.  How was everyone elses?

My new Song Addiction

I posted these lyrics on my MySpace Blog, but thought I'd post them here too.  As I skim my friend's page, I see how many who could probably appreciate the lyrics as much if not even more than I do.

So this is life, so this is hurt
So this what they talk about when they say
Hope for the best, expect the worst
It's all in the day to day
It's all in getting through
So what can one person say
To comfort you

Chorus
Ooh, so the wind blows
So it all goes with or without you, and
Ooh, don't try to run
Just let it come
You're right where you belong
In the middle of it all

It would be so nice to have things clear
But I think we all know
That's not what we have here
So just take my arm
Take my embrace
I might need the same
In another place

Chorus

Stay away from hows and whys
When you've reached that spot
Where everything that's asked of you
Is everything you've got

Chorus


The song is by a pretty new artist, Debra Stillman.  She's got a MySpace Music page if you are interested in checking out any of her other songs. 

My love to everyone out there.  I am still alive and so far so good at skimming at least.  I've skimmed 3 days in a row now.  : )

A Co-worker sent me this.... You've got to read it!!!!!!!!!!
 
Subject: July 8, 1947
 
Many will recall that on July 8, 1947, witnesses claimed that an unidentified object with five aliens aboard crashed onto a sheep and cattle ranch just outside Roswell, New Mexico. This is a well-know incident that many say has long been covered up by the U.S Air Force and the federal government. However, what you may NOT know is that in the month of March 1948, exactly nine months after that historic day, George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Bill O'Reilly, Rush Limbaugh, Condolezza Rice, and Dan Quayle were all born. See what happens when aliens breed with sheep. This piece of information may clear up a lot of things."

One more called "Rectum Stretcher"

While she was "Flying" down the road yesterday, (10 miles
over the limit), a woman passed over a bridge only to find
a cop with a radar gun on the other side lying in wait.

The cop pulled her over, walked up to the car and with that
classic patronizing smirk we all know and love, asked, "What's
your hurry?" to which she replied, "I'm late for work."
"Oh, Yeah," said the cop, "What do you do?" "I'm a Rectum
Stretcher," she responded.

The cop stammered, "A what? A rectum stretcher? And just what
does a rectum stretcher do?" "Well, she said, "I start by
inserting one finger, then work my way up to two fingers,then
three, then four, then with my whole hand in, I work from side
to side until I can get both hands in and then I slowly but
surely stretch it, until it's about 6 feet wide."

"And just what the heck do you do with a 6 foot a$$hole?" He asked.

"You give him a radar gun and park him behind a bridge..."

And people wonder why I'm the Cynic I've become lately...
I am convinced the holidays are cursed for me. I am starting to believe that Christmas season = Death when it comes to me. Christmas is cursed for me.

This year has really been bad. We wanted to do a holiday dinner again this year and have people over, but I couldn't get it off at work. So, I got invited to go to a friend's house and make cookies in the afternoon before I had to be at work. The night before I found myself in the ER w/ a gall attack (Last weekend). This friday found me sick and throwing up and into Saturday and yet I got to work through it all. Then to top off such a wonderful holiday, We had to put Harli, one of my younger cats, down today. She's been sick the last couple days and they said there really probably wasn't anything that could be done when we took her to the emergency vet today.

All four of piled into my car to be there. Then (because she's really become [info]shaka743's cat over the last year) we took her to his parents and burried her there w/ his other cat that passed away a couple years ago.

Harli was only four and she will always be my little girl. I really don't feel like Christmas is anything but pain for me and don't feel like it will ever be anything more again. Dan's family asked me to stay and have dinner with them, which I did since I really didn't want to come back here, where it feels so empty right now. Even the other cats are acting quite somber at the moment. You can see that they know something is not right. Harli was in my room the last two days and now it really feels empty. I don't envy Dan tonight. She was in his room all the time and he was used to her always being there.

So... if there is any question to why I'm so cynical these days... here's one of the many reasons.

Also... If there is anything you want me to see that I haven't commented on... it's because I haven't come back here in full capacity yet. I've just mostly been using this part of the journal. I haven't really sat down to try and catch up on my friend's list. So, please forgive me. I will try to do that when I get some spare time.
