Bartender Hit me One More Time. He Left, I cried. I'm lost inside won'tcha help me- Fill it to the top 'cause I hit rock bottom this time.

What a terrible day. This is the song that seriously comes to mind. I don't normally drink to drown my sorrows, because I KNOW sorrow knows how to swim, but I could really use a drink right about now, or seven.

Work has been... I have had the most awful day at work today, and it isn't even MY own work that's bugging me. Did you ever have a coworker who nobody liked? I have one, and not only is she irritating, no put it nicely, but she doesn't really do her own job, so it basically falls to me, but she's mean to customers,(we're in public transportation and customer service is the biggest part of her job) and when she's snotty to them, I have to deal with it. Neither of us is the other's supervisor, and we share a supervisor. BUT, complaints about her from the general public come to me, and I've had it up to HERE!!!

I have general plans for this weekend with my friends (the band is playing Friday, and then maybe bbq and karaoke Saturday), but frankly, I really need to have sex. I know that sounds like the sluttiest thing in the world, but I am not GOING to have sex (probably) I just need to. ARGGGHHHHHH Now I feel like I need to justify that. I know ya'll are not judging me. I just haven't had any action in soooo long, I'm sure half of my problem is tension. Probably more than half.

But, you know what- I haven't smoked, and that's just flippin' wonderful. Can't you just feel the happiness radiating off my body?!

Is it 5:00 somewhere? Must be about beerthirty by now!

Well, I just got off the phone with my bestest ever (read: totally gets me, and she's a band wife, and she's the best) girlfriend, and she totally cheered me up by reminding me that
A) it's Wednesday (we often meet for drinks on Wednesdays, anyway)
B) it's band practice night, and if I really want to get a little, I could (R will be there)
C) it's halfway through the week
D) it's Wednesday
E) I only have an hour to go before I can leave work
F) it's Wednesday
G) We're drinking at her house, which is even better than a bar, since it's non-smoking, no temptation!!
H) it's Wednesday
I) R will be at her house, and she was totally cracking me up about that, which made me laugh instead of cry- especially since I CAN laugh about it now, and not spaz about it anymore
J) it's Wednesday
K) she was kind enough to offer to buy my favorite thing to drink
L) it's Wednesday
M) she told me to bring my sax and play along
N) it's Wednesday
O) she sang to me (she's not a singer- at all)
P) it's Wednesday
Q) she reminded me I haven't smoked
R) it's Wednesday

So, I have the greatest friends. She even had her hubby call while I was typing this and cheer me up by reminding me that Friday was Cinco de Mayo, and all I have to do is make it til then, and they have learned a new song I've been bugging them about- just for me!

He re-extended the invite to come over tonight and practice with the band, so that's cool, now I'm looking forward to tonight instead of dreading today. I'm sorry for venting to you guys, I just had the biggest bummer of a day.

I seriously had to literally blink back tears all day today. Forget PMSing, I am just plain ole witchy with a big ole capital "B"!! Work stinks sometimes!

It's awesome to remember that work isn't all there is to life. I have pretty great friends, and the most awesome kids. I'm almost through day 7 of no smoking, and since this has been a day from hell, if I can get through this, I'm pretty darn good. You gals (and guy) are great, my family is great, I at least HAVE a job, and I usually love it. I actually do like my own job, I just am fed up sometimes with having to do other people's too.

Anyway, thanks for being there. Here. You know.

Moody- who really needs a vacation right now!--- even if it's just to Margaritaville!

That's good advice about the co-worker, Alison, and it's not like our supervisor doesn't know. He's just too nice to actually DO anything about it, which makes it frustrating for me, since he expects me to handle it all.

I do it, but there are days when I just can't grin and bear it anymore, like yesterday. I do really like my job, and it normally doesn't bother me, but yesterday I guess it all just got to me.

I'm much better now, details to follow in another post, maybe

Moody- whose trip to Margaritaville was soooo worth it!
