Bald Jason's Musings
Thursday, November 24, 2005
Work sucked beyond the telling of it yesterday. Disturbing numbers of extremely annoying, deeply stupid people. I had some nice, educated ones thrown in to keep me sane, but some of the others were so horrible. I think Hollywood has mostly spoiled me, what with the majority of my customers being really cool. I sometimes forget what retail really is. But I survived.
I had maybe an hours sleep since 5:30pm on Tuesday. The roads were pretty bad, since our first real snowfall of the year had arrived. My acid reflux was beyond bad; I was almost crying. Then all those people piled on. I was early for work, and stayed late. It was mostly horrible, and I was exhausted by the time I got home. I cancelled my plans for Necto.
I did have one nice surprise waiting for me at home. 2 cds that I'd ordered. I don't order music that often, but I'd heard a couple of songs recently that I really, REALLY liked, and I couldn't get them any other way. I've also been doing a bangup job of saving cash, and these were inexpensive enough to be a nice little reward for myself - I'm so glad they arrived when they did. I should add a list of my favorite songs to my site somewhere. The 2 songs I wanted, in case anyone is wondering, are "Last Train To Wherever" by Telepopmusik, and "Faith In Me" by Pole Folder. Both were featured in recent Nip/Tuck episodes, and both rocked my socks - hardcore. ;-0)
I slept from around 7:30pm-11:30pm. I read some of my Star Trek book. I played a video game, and listened to music. I finished watching "Heart & Souls", which I started on my break at work, and which always makes me cry a lot, even if it is really cheesy. I ate. I read some more. I went back to bed around 5am and slept until 8:30am. Still having trouble sleeping, but I think I slept 'deeper' if that makes any sense, and I feel a lot better, though not quite fantastic.
Mark is dropping me off at work today so he can visit his mom. I work 1pm-5:30pm today (and tomorrow as well); I get paid time & 1/2 today I think. I talked to my Grandfather, my older sister, 1 of my nephews, and Jill today. ;-0) I should call Jamie, since it's her birthday. I'm thinking I'll do that on my break at work. I'm eating right now, and I want to take my time getting ready, and try to stay as relaxed as possible.
Other stuff in my brain: I'm still worried about Patrick, and I should get in touch with him soon and see how he's doing. I've been aching to read Marvel comics again, and I was reading up on all sorts of wacky storylines, and I wanted to talk to him about them, but I never did. erg. Also hoping that I get to hang out with Matt sometime soon, who I was supposed to hang out with at Necto last night - but didn't. I'd feel really bad about not going, except I obviously needed to be in bed far more than on the dancefloor. But that doesn't mean I didn't want to be there - and I sent him an e-mail before the time that I usually go. Maybe he didn't go either.
