What a week and it’s only Thursday. Monday was a holiday. I worked Tuesday an average day and Wednesday a totally bat shit crazy day. I left work at 8:15p after having started at 8a. That is one long ass day. I finally got the rest of the new hires and worked on getting them in the systems considering I have Thursday & Friday off. After having been there so late I decided it was time to put my foot down. This is the 1st time in 3 years that I have taken 2 days off and not monitored email. My voice mail greeting and my Out of Office notice both state that I will not have access. That is the best decision I have made in a while. Now paying for it will be hell but it’s nice to be able to kick back.
I did get a phone call today from work and there was a problem, but we found a band-aid that will work until Monday. I have no idea how I am going to fix this but we will limp along somehow.
Marv aka Jumper got sick on me with really bad diarrhea. I gave him something for it and it worked too well so then he was nauseated and decided to stop eating. Thankfully that passed but I made an appointment for him. Preliminary diagnosis is Thyroid problem. Not a complete surprise. I let them take blood from him and the results will be in tomorrow. It was close to $240 but it’s something that I should have done a long time ago instead of putting it off. If you recall I had a bad feeling about it. I’ve been pretty worried over him more so the last couple days. Just scared I will lose him, which I don’t want to. He’s my sleeping buddy, hell he is family.
I went to see the doctor earlier today and got a muscle relaxer for my back. The knots are really bad and they hurt quite a bit. I also have noticed that I am getting head aches, which is odd. I mentioned that and right now there is no concern but if this keeps up then we will have to dig deeper. There is no sign of obvious elevation of intracranial pressure based on a quick eye exam. I hope they go away soon, I had one last night that woke me up and it was my entire head – it was bad. I waited until I fell back asleep and then when I woke up no problem. Got my orders for blood work but this time they are sending me to a lab instead of letting me go to the hospital of my choice. I wanted to knock this out by Saturday but because of this I had to make an appointment with the lab, they of course have nothing early tomorrow or Saturday. Fasting is required so I had to interrupt next Saturday’s schedule. Totally not happy about that but we shall see how it goes.
Tomorrow is car service in the morning and after that I am free. I looked pretty hard today at cars and once again did the math, it’s something that I want but it’s not financially feasible. I could do it but it would be stretching things pretty tight and it’s a large commitment. Once again the devil you know is better than the devil you don’t. I don’t want to lock myself into something that makes me financially uncomfortable. I like my car but based on it’s performance I have my doubts as to how long it will hold up before a major issue arises. Just glad I bought an extended warranty. Perhaps I will feel better about it after tomorrow. I will be asking them to give some attention to the transmission. We will be chatting about my remote and the battery. So I hope things go well and that I am not held hostage for the entire day. A couple hours is more than fine but anything beyond that will send me over the edge and not in a good way.
Thinking about going to see a movie tomorrow. The Hitman’s Body Guard. It’s supposed to be really funny and lord knows I could use some humor in my life. Laughter really is the best medicine.
I dropped off of the app I went back on, it just got old quickly and there was no way to communicate unless you paid for a membership. So not interested. I do plan on returning to Cracker Barrel over the weekend for Breakfast and hopefully I will have the balls and courage to ask the guy I like out. I mean I can’t lose what I don’t have so there really is no risk, except some nerves. I already know he is younger than me and I am fine with it, so long as we have chemistry and are truly interested in each other I know it will work. I also am not expecting anything positive to come from it but I have faced worse circumstances in my life, lord knows I can handle rejection. I just don’t want him to be one of those guys that says yes but doesn’t mean it. That really hurts and makes me mad.
So now what to do with my entire evening ahead of me? I am going to find some music to listen to, play on the internet and by that I mean surf for porn. First I have to go reboot my modem & router. I did a speed test and things are moving along slow – it’s not noticeable but I like to get what I am paying for.
Still kicking around the idea of checking into a hotel and doing the breakfast buffet. A nice whirlpool bath sounds really good. I’d miss my 4 legged furry family but they would all get by with missing a meal. The cost is what is causing the hesitation. I mean I can take a hot shower here, throw in a muscle relaxer and within an hour or two at most I will be relaxed and out like a light. No need to spend $100 + dollars on a 1 night hotel room. Now if I was meeting an escort that would be a different story but I’m not.
Happy Friday Eve!
