My stupid stomach has been seriously on the fritz for the past three days. Yesterday, I woke up and started violently dry-heaving and I felt just horrible. I was sick all day but I finally wound up going into work around 1pm.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;\">My boss talked to me when I got in about my attendance. Or, more accurately, my <i style=\"\">lack<\/i> of attendance. I know I\u2019ve missed an absurd amount of days. It\u2019s just a culmination of so many things. From Rand going into the hospital a week after I started here, to passing away two weeks later, to anxiety\/panic attacks for the first time in my life, to insomnia, huge CFS flare meaning extreme fatigue, to more and worse migraines, to my stomach being literally hell all the way to just simply hating my job and not wanting to deal with it on top of everything else, it just all turns into a lot of missed days.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;\"><span style=\"\">\u00a0<\/span>&#8212; a few hours later \u2013<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;\">Overall it\u2019s tough to care when you feel awful and hate your job anyway, you know?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;\">No one wants to work today. I don\u2019t either. It\u2019s tough being motivated before a 3-day weekend.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;\">Everyone in my building is moving to another building. Most of this floor has already moved and our group moves next week. They\u2019re emptying this building entirely so they can possibly lease it out. Guess when they built the complex, they had about 1,000 more people then they do now.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;\">So anyway, everything\u2019s getting moved around. And, like any move, there\u2019s always stuff people get rid of. Today, there were stacks of used Dell desktop pc\u2019s one of the departments were cleaning out their supply. Love\u2019s brother needs a PC as his died completely a few months ago, so I grabbed one for him and then his Mom\u2019s is so old, I grabbed one for her too. I don\u2019t know their configuration but hey, any pc is better then no pc! It\u2019s funny, because there were <i style=\"\">stacks<\/i> of them and everyone went and picked out ones for themselves and now everyone\u2019s desk have spare pc\u2019s on them! One person joked it was like Christmas.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;\">&#8212; after lunch \u2013- <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;\">*hums*<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;\">I\u2019m so bored. And just don\u2019t want to be here. It\u2019s now 2:41pm and I\u2019ve got about an hour and 20 minutes left to go. Ugh, feels like forever. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;\">What sucks is besides being broke, with Love\u2019s car in desperate need of repair and mine without A\/C, we can\u2019t even go anywhere local this weekend or do anything. We need to run to IKEA to return something but it\u2019s a bit of a drive and again, we don\u2019t want to use his car to do it. Times like this are frustrating because normally we would have just asked Rand to drive his car for us over there. And of course, that\u2019s not an option any more. We\u2019d always run errands together on the weekends so it\u2019s just one of those infinite things that remind you he\u2019s gone. It\u2019s the stupid little shit that tends to hurt the most.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;\">Cheerful.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;\">This has to be one of the single most random, babbling entry I\u2019ve ever written. But see, this is what happens when I have a entry open throughout the day and I just add to it in little bursts as I think about it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;\">Alright, one hour to go. Guess I should try to finish off with a little bit of actual work to complete my day. What I need to do is work on some new pieces tonight and get them listed &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/PhoenixFireDesigns.com\">PhoenixFireDesigns.com<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/PhoenixFireDesigns.etsy.com\">PhoenixFireDesigns.etsy.com<\/a> &#8211; to try and raise some cash for the car repairs. Any suggestions what I should make? I don\u2019t know how I\u2019m going to come up with the money but I need to do <i style=\"\">something<\/i> you know?<\/p>\n<p \/>  Ta for now.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 10px;\">  <a href=\"http:\/\/posterous.com\">Posted via email<\/a>   from <a href=\"http:\/\/memoryanddream.posterous.com\/random-thoughts-from-work-today\">memoryanddream&#8217;s posterous<\/a>  <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Another day, another morning I rather be just about anywhere else other than here.
