It's Wednesday - it's my best teaching day (I just like my schedule). Report cards go out tomorrow though so it is 'hold your breath and wait for repercussions' time...hate it!
I might actually make it back to the gym today, I haven't had time for anything other than a 12 minute run and about 30 minutes of shoveling snow since last Thursday...I can't wait for a good rinsing at hot yoga tonight.
Re: Hump Day!
So, it's Ash Wednesday and I'm trying to figure out what kind of meatless lunch I can make. So far, I have a bagel with cheese, fruit, yogurt, applesauce and salad. I can't say I'm overly excited about any one thing in my lunch, but it'll do. I also need to find a church in the area where I can get my ashes today, because I'm totally ignorant of what's in the city where I work.
Aside from that, I'm thrilled that this week is halfway over. I haven't been sleeping well and I just want a day to bum around and not do much.
Good luck with the report cards, number. A few other friends of mine are teachers too, and everyone's got the same "hope I don't step on a landmine" kind of vibe. Who knew report cards could be so contentious? I remember when a bad report card was the student's fault, not the teacher's.

I fucking hate phone interviews, theyre stupid. Give me a real interview where I can book off work and not deal with this phone crap. I dont even know that I want to do it now, its more trouble than its worth.
Today is my only full workday this week, as I came in late from picking up my car at the shop yesterday, and then I'm leaving early (using some earned comp time) to head up to Orlando tomorrow.
BTW, I'm so happy to have my car back. I had two rental cars while my car was in the shop, and I was too tall for both of them and kept hitting my head getting in and out of it, and my bun kept brushing up against the headrests when I was in uniform. Innie the Audi is my car soulmate.

Nebb, that blows. I'd see about possibly re-scheduling, even if it's just pushing the time forward or back a bit.
I like short weeks. Also, my boss is at home with his kids today. I feel like that might mean not a lot of work gets done. Mind you, I've got less than 8 weeks of work left (WTF?) and I have a LOT of reports to finish up.
We'll just not tell H about this little fact, m'kay?

I'm tired and need more coffee. I had a 9:00 but I guess that was cancelled so I'm sitting in my office trying to get motivated to do something.
Nebb, any chance you could tell your current employer you have a call you need to take? Not necessarily tell them it an interview, but let them know you scheduled this call a couple weeks back specifically during your lunch time- tell them it's with the vet or something they won't probe too much about. Or tell them it's a phone interview. They have to know you're looking since they only gave you job security for a couple of months.
[QUOTE]I can't push it forward or back, it has to be at 12:30 cause that's when my lunch is. Effff..

Eek that's no good. Maybe tell them you had scheduled a quick appointment during your lunch that day that you can't get out of, but you knew you'd be back in the time of your lunch period?

Morning ladies. I brought Honey Nut Cheerios to work with me, and they smell funny. Almost like apples... I think I'm losing my mind.
I love your car names, Mehg. My car is currently BO-Car. (as in, Bailout... I bought it right before all that drama.) Yes, H and I are nerds. whatev.

[QUOTE]I'm not too much worried about questions from my boss at not being here, its everyone else. Someone farts in the office and everyone wants to know what's going on. If I'm at the luncheon they're all gonna bug me wanting to know why. I know I sound like I'm making this more complicated than it needs to be I just don't want it to be an obvious big deal that I'm interviewing.

Well if they ask, just start talking about your cramps and heavy bleeding. I'm sure they wont ask again!
Morning ladies. I have been sleeping like the dead lately, which is funny because night before last I dreamnt of zombies and hoarders. Anyone wanna place bets as to my tv watchng menu?
Yoga was last night. I have to work off porperty tomorrow at a huge event. I'm really not looking forward to it. Dressing models is not fun. And I wont get home till after 10PM, way past my bedtime.

Her's arent the only ones. We have a few here at my work too, as soon as I call off I know I will get the Spanish Inquisition the next day, what was wrong, did you puke, is it the flu, do you feel better? And on and on it goes. Part of the reason I try not to call in.
*hugs* lbarr. I'm sorry to hear that.

I don't get how people can be like that. I don't get why people are so concerned with other people's business. I know the simple answer is that they're nosy.. but still.. what's the point?

[QUOTE]I might just say its my banker if anyone asks. A friend from work went to florida last week and I asked for a gift and he got me a tshirt with a skeleton driving a truck and it says trucker to the bone. Its awesome! I don't wanna effing leave here. Sorry for being so whiny guys, I'm just... Whiny.
Posted by Nebb[/QUOTE]
You are allowed to be whiny. And it's a huge change if you have to leave as well as the not knowing. It's scary as well as sad. Whine away.
Chels-The lady who is like that here, is like that about EVERYTHING! She reminds me of a 5 yr old. But why? But Why? Annoying.

Next time she's nosy, I'd turn around and ask her an even more personal question (but one that I wouldn't be upset to know the answer to) until she gets the hint.

Crappy sleep again last night. Between my daughter coming in late and the wind blowing hard (the bedroom window whistles when it's windy) I was awake from 1 to 3. Boo.
