I’ve Been Sitting Here….
June 2nd, 2009
I’ve been sitting here for the last hour trying to think of what to write. It’s been awhile since my last update. Doh! I’ve just been really preoccupied lately playing World of Warcraft, it’s crazy.
Well, it’s partly game play and partly because I am afraid to write – afraid I might lose control and admit something I really shouldn’t admit. It’s also nothing serious or scandalous, just something I need to work out on my own.
I have also finally started twittering again and am also finally becoming the technophile I knew I could be. In other words, I finally utilizing my cell phone to its almost fullest potential because I finally added text messaging to it and have figured out how to upload videos to YouTube, Flickr and other various services. I supposed it took me so long just because none of my friends here were ever technologically savvy as I seem to think I am.
Of course, now I am thinking about getting a new cell phone with a better camera and qwerty keyboard on it.
One positive thing about all of this technology is that it is making me feel young again. I mean, I still won’t tolerate any bullshit, but I am at least able to have fun to some extent. I still get quite the thrill when I get a message from someone – it’s just really nice to know that someone is out there thinking of you.
Work is still work. My coworker and I are still incredibly frustrated with our boss, but boss is unlikely to change any time soon. I am already falling behind in my work because there are just so many things that boss wants us to do and it never stops, so I don’t even know where to begin again. Coworker gave me advice to just do one paper at a time and I am trying, but as soon as I am done with one, there are 3 others to take its place. But, I know I will put up with it because I like having a job.
We also got some news today that because of budget shortfalls, we are going to have 3 unpaid days a month starting in July. That is going to be a little difficult since it amounts to just under a 14% pay cut. I mean, it’s not like I spend a lot of money now, but I still am trying to save like crazy, and that is just going to make it a little more difficult.
I also spoke with my friend A last week and we are now going to plan a trip to Europe next summer! Yay! She originally wanted me to take a New England tour with her, but I declined because I figured that if I was going to spend as much as the trip was going to cost, I would rather go to Europe! Yay! I know she is excited because she already put in her passport application. LOL. I still need to renew my passport. I think it expired like 10 years ago. Oh I hope this trip works out. I’ve been wanting to go to Europe for the past 4 or 5 years, but something would always come up and quash my dreams. This will also hopefully give me motivation to work out to get in shape again since I haven’t worked out in months! Months I say! And even though I have all kinds of weights and crazy videos and will not be making as much starting next month, I am going to buy a treadmill for my birthday! Finally! I’ve been freaking writing about it for at least 6 months, but could just not come to a decision, but I am going to do it now. I have the motivation! Yea!
Aiyeee, my birthday is coming up soon. I don’t even know if I am going to celebrate it this year. Blah. I don’t really want to go out. I just want to spend some time relaxing. I already put in to take a 4 day weekend and set up a couple of appointments that I have been putting off because I forgot about them. Whoops. Who knows, maybe I will go to an actual salon to get my biannual haircut and get a professional dye job to over all my gray!
But, as usual, I have stayed up too late and need to get to bed already. Here’s to pleasant dreams and hopes for a better tomorrow!
