Well, it’s Tuesday. I don’t know what that means exactly, except that it’s the second (or third, depending on your views) day of the week. I’m going to list post – it’s just easier and we have a lot of ground to cover folks:
- I am officially ‘faking it’ today. I have to because I really need to go to work. So, if you look at me today and see me smiling, don’t misunderstand that for feeling better…because I don’t. I wish I did, but I don’t.
- I was so sick yesterday I didn’t end up going to work – I ended up going to the hospital for labs so my Dr. could get a stat reading on my AST/ALT numbers – the result was “Ugh, seriously Brandy, what in the hell is wrong with you?! Up your steroids some more and go back every morning this week for a new reading. I’m trying to go out of town here damnit!” (Don’t you just love Dr.’s?)
- My chair is lose or something because when I move it makes a noise that’s really high pitched and it’s driving me crazy. I really should get that old man of mine to flip it over and take a look at it before I go tumbling to the floor – which would be equally funny and sad – but only if there were a camera rolling, because without the camera, it’d just be sad.
- I wish there were a way to block someone on Twitter without unfollowing them. Honestly, there are a couple of people that just send me round the bend – but the fallout from unfollowing them would be so dramatic and moronic – it’s just not worth the effort – so instead, I read their tweets, roll my eyes and move on.
- One of my biggest pet peeves is lack of communication and/or lack of response to emails, but I find that I’m becoming ‘that person’ because my ‘give a crap’ meter has finally broken after being pegged out for the better part of five years.
- The very worst part of freelance work/contract work for me is having a client who never has time to talk about their project and when they do, they expect you to drop everything you’re doing to be available for them – I used to play that game and I think I’m finally at a point now where I’m done. This can apply to so many parts of my life
- Sick or not sick, this weekend I will paint several rooms in my house. I’m getting sick of looking at them and wishing they’d paint themselves.
- The old man installed a ceiling fan in the kitchen this weekend – best decision ever. It gets hot in there when/if I cook.
- Do you ever find that you sensor your thoughts/feelings when you blog? I do and I hate that.
- The old man’s allergies are killing him. You’d think, it being the end of June and it being eleventihundred degrees outside, the problem wouldn’t be as bad – but it seems to be getting worse!
- I wish I knew what my life’s calling was. It’d make this journey I’m on so much easier.
- I remember when I used to think I knew what it was…and I was doing it. That was so awesome.
- It’s true what they say about loving your job and never working a day in your life…of course, when something happens and it goes away – it’s like a death in the family.
- I just sent an email to the old man and the kid about helping around the house. I’ve drawn my line in the sand – they can either get with it or pay for someone to come ‘get with it’ for them – I’m not the effing maid around here and I’m getting sick of it (on top of already being just plain old freakin sick).
Well, I’ve got a crap ton of things to do today – go to the hospital for labs, go to work, come home and be a bitch on wheels.
*sigh*

I hear you on the Twitter thing. Or at least if there was a way to sneakily unfollow them. A friend of mine did this once with someone she adores but was too busy to read and the person publicly (on twitter) confronted them. Awkward.
I hope you feel better soon.
