Turning Tuesday

Morning … I am glad that Monday is behind us and that were moving forward with the week, even if it’s only Tuesday.  This was one of those mornings when I could have stayed in bed a bit longer.  My insomnia kicked in at 3a.  I was up until 4a and then got a magic hug from Mora and it was lights out.  Just a little rough getting up. 

I kind of feel like I am getting sick but thus far nothing much has come of that.  Felt like that for a few days now.  Last week I bit the upper part of my cheek when I was chewing.  Not exactly sure how I did that trick but it happened.  Ever since then I have felt off.  My mouth is all healed up.  Oddly enough so is my upper lip from the shaving cut I got on Sunday.  Just put some Neosporin on it for a day and it’s all gone.  Kind of makes me feel like I am young again, because I haven’t seen anything on this body heal that fast in a long time. 

I am on the verdict watch of the trial of Jennifer Crumbly.  There are people all over the spectrum on what she should get.  Plenty of folks on YouTube weighing in.  I am on the fence and not exactly sure what I would do, I kind of see both sides.  I am more interested to see what verdict the Jury renders.  The judge in the case reminds me of a boss that I had a long time ago, she was really cool. 

I got consumed last night in the damn computer.  I thought for sure I had the fix to my issue but nope the issue still lingers.  I did hide that one windows update from a few weeks back that wouldn’t install because the recovery partition was too small.  It’s the global issue that most people had and Microsoft doesn’t seem to have a fix other than messing with the size of your recovery partition.  I know what I am doing and even I won’t attempt that one.  Too much to risk.  If I didn’t really need my system then I might goof with it but nope. 

Got a call a while ago asking me if I was coming in.  I said no.  Then I heard that someone from HR wanted to borrow my office.  Fine by me borrow away.  I had the after thought once the call was done that I hope this doesn’t ruin my good ride.  That will bother me for a couple days.  I do plan to be in next week so we shall see how exactly they left my office. Need to keep appearance up, even if I will be bored out of my mind.

The meeting we had yesterday afternoon happened.  Come to find out I am the only one who did the assignment that was passed out.  Now I get punished because we have to meet again on Thursday and the boss gave the other two slackers an extension.  I think they should have to meet and I should be rewarded by being able to skip the meeting.  We have our two normal meetings today.  I never look forward to meetings, just a big time waster.

Late in the day I found yet another glaring error that my dumbass co-worker made and I fixed it for him.  Kind of called him out in an email as well.  I don’t know if he’s gargling with bong water, just not paying full attention to what he is doing or if there is something else going on in his life but whatever it is I wish he would get it together.  Between his fuck ups and my bosses no big deal attitude it keeps me on the brink of wanting to quit.  My co-worker is a dummy, that’s been established.  He can apply himself and make less fuck ups but it’s not possible for him to be on the same level as me and make only a few mistakes now and then.  Yes, I know it’s hard to believe but I am not perfect either but I am way closer than he will ever be.  I keep hoping my boss will change but alas he has no backbone and his boss manipulates him much like a ventriloquist manipulates it’s dummy.  He’s too stupid to even realize it, he drank the Kool Aid years ago and as long as the checks keep rolling in he’s sticking around.  Although he keeps talking about getting older and retirement, he’s like two or three years younger than me.  Of course he makes more than I do and he’s swimming in money unlike me.  I make six figures the problem is that most of those figures start with mostly zeros!

No surprise that I had left over pizza for lunch and supper last night.  The supper portion didn’t set that well, too much onion and grease.  I know that I will have more of it today at some point but thinking of eating the last of my hard boiled eggs for lunch with some string cheese.  A light lunch.  That’s the bigger thing that hit me the other day.  Not only am I on this new drug but I eliminated bread from my diet for the most part.  I used to have a sandwich at lunch everyday and now I don’t.  Giving up bread also helped with the weight loss.  My lunchtime meal is mostly what has changed it’s not only quicker but lighter.  I pack a “normal” lunch if I am going in but more often than not I only eat part of it.  Got to remember to tell that one to the doc. 

It’s supposed to be a nice warmer sunny day here so I know that the cats will be sunbathing and sleeping.  I am perfectly okay with that.  However, if I stay down here too long before lunch they will both come looking for me and when I open the door to head up they will be waiting for me, then comes the meowing. It’s fun to put words in their mouths. 

Hope you have a great day and that you don’t have any BS to deal with like I do.  I appreciate you stopping by.  Take care and I will talk with you again soon.
