So how great is it that there are so many choices of TV shows available to me via this lovely internet? I just can't decide which one to watch first? Hulu has the season premiers of "Bones" and "Fringe" for me and Graboid, will have "The Vampire Diaries" and "Supernatural" ...regardless of what I start with, I'm leaning toward saving "Bones" for last...it's the whipped cream on the sundae...but it's already midnight and I'm not feelin' so great.
Around 10pm tonight, while still at work, I started feeling a bit dizzy/lightheaded and just plain icky ...and I'm not sure why. Is it because it was a reeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllllly long week off classroom training? Mebbe. Thank god I made it home safely and that I've got the weekend off. I'm probably just sleep deprived or something, because I've consistently been going to bed so late this week (then again, that's not unusual) or maybe it's the working 'til 11pm that's messing me up. Strange was a difference a 1/2 hour or so can make...
Or maybe it's from the lingering sore throat that won't seem to go away and means maybe I really should just go to the Dr. already...
Maybe I should try crashing nowi'sh and see how I feel in the morning. Nah....too wired to sleep..it's Friday!!!
I pity anyone else who has gone through or will go through a merger and has to totally re-learn how to do their job. :( though today we had something to look forward to because we all brought in stuff to eat and had a pot-free potluck dinner (all the fixin's for sandwiches, chips, salads, etc.) and we took A LOT of long breaks and stuff. We needed 'em though because the stuff we covered today? Ugh. Reviewing things we know but now having to process them the Delta way. And some of them seeming way more complicated than they need to be.
Intense, intense week. My brain is fried. Thank goodness the weekend is supposed to be pretty mellow. Tomorrow, lunch w/Shanna. Dinner w/Irma? Then chillin' on Sunday while brother changes the oil in the car for me.
Oh! Speaking of car. Suzette is officially mine. I transferred the title today AND got tabs renewed so I'm all set. Now just have to take care of that damn ticket. Maybe if I go there and plead my case they'll give me a break (hey, a girl's allowed to dream right? :P )
Anyhoo. Yup. Things to be grateful for, even if they seem shallow or strange.
Musings from a big and beautiful sometimes "drama queen" on her current state of existence
What's It All About?
"The unexamined life is not worth living." Socrates
While you’re here, in this time and in this space, you are beautiful and you are perfect.
You are right where you need to be to get to where you want to go, so start asking yourself where you want to go.
