Fri: Got some well needed sleep. Nearly didn't see "Red Ryder" due to the mini-deluge. Saw "Red Ryder". Had an awkward moment that sent me straight out of the theatre and right into a slightly sprained ankle.

Sat: More good sleep. Went to Around the World. Got to see a lot of people I hadn't seen in a while (like, damn, we actually ALLOWED that Hose-Beast back into the house? And here I was thinking it wouldn't dare set foot in there again. At least it behaved itself.) and learn new things about people I've seen more regularly (Who got married? Pardon me while I wander into the next room to laugh like a drunk hyena) Had another awkward moment...

Sun: I rode on the back of a motorcycle for the first time EVAR! (you rock, firebitch!). Got to walk into The Original Pancake House looking all Biker's Bitch and all...good times. Enjoyed the rest of the day tending to my dehydration-induced Charley Horse--damn they are a bitch and a half to deal with...

So tommorrow is Hump Day, and I think I want to get into the habit of celabrating by going out drinking somewhere. My choices for now are Kareoke Night at MSR again (just cut down on the booze, of course) and Happy Hour at either Fado or Meechan's--mmmm, Black Velvets and Snakebites (I swear, there must be a law somewhere that states that all Irish pubs must hire hot waitresses...rowr!)..decisions...decisions...

Okay, My mini vacay wasn't nearly long enough....but I'm glad I got it (hell,my lead worker told me that she was surprised that I didn't take more days off..."You work too much")

In nutshell:

Wens: While technically not the start of my weekend, Kareoke at My Sister's Room was a lot of late night fun. I love a bartender with a sense of humor (I asked for an "absoluetly filthy" martini, and she simply poured olive juice into a glass and waved the vodka and vermouth over it. After the laugh, she took it back and made it correctly...but damn that was funny)

Thursday: Rough. I woke up still drunk, and am still amazed that I made it to work on time. By the time I got there, the hangover was starting, so I drowned myself in water and Alieve. Luckily I was only working four hours...sleep, gently sleep...

okay...going to work now...will finish later...

I needed this weekend like you wouldn't believe. I woke up yesterday at 9am, was so tickled at the thought of being up so *late*, that I slept for another hour.

Don't know what I'm going to do tommorrow morning...it's Monday and I don't have to wake up at 4am...wheee!!!! I might even sleep til noon! What a concept!

It's been a great weekend of nothing so far. Well, okay, I cleaned the bathroom/kitchen/my room yesterday afternoon and will be changing rooms tommorrow night, but between those two moments....blessed, sweet nothing. I'm embracing it with both hands...

Of course, I'm not looking forward to jumping back into the Overtime Monster's mouth on Tuesday. Hey, at least they pay me for the annoyance of backache, exhaustion, and dealing with nasty attitudes of various womenfolk. Office full of women, and some of them with chips on their shoulders/eternal PMS, who thought that was a good idea?

Yes, it is good that they pay me for it, and that I can come home, close my door and not have to deal with it for free....

Once again...AHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.....
