My happy friendly LiveJournal format looks all funky for some reason... Oh well. I've decided that, aside from being a confirmed meat-eater, the only thing stopping me from becoming a Zen Buddhist is the fact that I like stuff. I particularly like my new computer. I decided, after 4 years of struggling w/that already-useless-when-I-bought-it Dell, that I not only wanted a new computer, not only needed a new computer, but I deserved a new computer. I love it. It's beautiful and powerful, like a sleek muscled racehorse... Well, ok, so it's a bulky silver box with the word "VAIO" in glowing blue on it (which currently has a Coop devil-girl sticker taped over it so the blue shows through in a strategic & amusing spot), but if I want to compare it with a sleek muscled racehorse, that's my metaphoric problem. So tonight's been the second night I've really gotten to break it in.
I can't win health-wise. Go to the OB/GYN, find out that my pussy's broken. "How can this be?!" I exclaim, "I haven't had unprotected sex w/anyone but Rob!!! And he hasn't had unprotected sex w/anyone but me in years!!!" So the nurse says, "Oh, it's not that kind of problem; it's stress, not sleeping or not drinking enough water or eating too much yogurt. Me, stress? Nah, can't be the stress ;) And we all know I get plenty of sleep, all 4 hrs a day. Problem: Every time I drink more water my blood pressure goes up - it was the cardiologist who told me I'd be better off heartwise if I was slightly dehydrated all the time... and I've been taking the doxycycline yogurt-free for 2 days & all I want to do is puke my guts up. So now I've got to call the dermatologist & see if he can get me a different antibiotic. Oh well, I probably will have to change my follow up appointment anyway. It's stopped working - I'm all spotty again. But last week I had no pimples whatsoever.
Finally finished writing to the Hula Rat... Rob's going back to work tomorrow night - finally!!! Maybe in a few months I can quit the day job! Of course, everything's changing there anyway, so I may be out of a job sooner than I think or want - I might get moved to a different department that can't swing the hours I can/can't work. Just have to wait & see.
I let Shirla do the audit all by herself Friday night - of course, she didn't get the system down til 4am & Molly didn't get her report til 6:40am. I told Molly that Shirla can do the audit, but she's slooooooooowwwww, and Molly said that's not my problem - as long as Shirla knows what she's doing, she'll get tired of getting nagged for taking too long & she'll pick up her speed. I just get the feeling that it's her passive-aggressive response of choice in reaction to my nagging - the more I remind her of the time, the slower she goes. Saturday I took an EO & let Alea babysit her for the rest of the night. I didn't get any phonecalls, so I guess they did ok... of course, I have no idea what time the system went down. I'll hear about all of it on Weds. I suppose.
Firmly entrenched in the mundane I muddle my way from day to day. I did get Ariadne the first pomegranate of the season on Mabon... and the second one is sitting on my kitchen counter like a huge barbarian ruby.
