I guess I'm sticking with the song theme - a bright and shiny penny for you if you figured out that the song was Natasha Bedingfield's "Love Like This". She has a soulful voice for a skinny white chick - I was quite surprised when I first heard her album Unwritten.
It's been a long day, although technically it really hasn't. Mornings are always stressful for me - I set the alarm to go off so I can get up at a reasonable time (either 7am or 8am depending on if I'm shaving that morning) but it's always hard for me to wake up. Most days my back has been hurting so I've gotten zilchy good sleep and wake up exhausted and in pain, which really causes the morning to drag out. I still get into work between 9-9:30am most mornings, and since there isn't an established time to be in by I suppose it's ok, but I still give myself grief over not being able to come in earlier. This morning I got into work at about 9:15ish, but my badge didn't work. Usually no access to the building means "I hope you didn't have any nice shit on your desk, cause you ain't never getting it back" but thankfully today it appeared to be some sort of mistake with the security system. Hey, note to employer - if you are going to fire me, do me a favor and do it at the end of the day so I don't have to get up early tomorrow. Thanks!
I've been feeling a little low at work the past few weeks - my old boss was never really around so I was working in a vacuum and mostly killing time (which sucks) and then in December I found out that I would be reporting to a newly promoted boss who was actually based in the US (even better, in the same office building!) - the catch is of course that new boss is a total 180 from old boss, so where I used to run the show on behalf of an absent landlord, now I am a soldier transferred to a new unit that already has veterans. I don't know if you've seen Die Hard 2, but I think it's safe to say you know what happens when a soldier gets transferred into a new unit. That's right, they get Tom Hanks killed. No, wait... you know what I mean. Oh well, I guess I can only wait and see how the chips fall. It's just a pain in the ass going from one extreme to another at work.
Speaking of work, I guess you can tell I'm posting in this blog instead of actually working - I'm probably just stalling out. I know there are a few things I can do, but see paragraph above as to why I'm the color of apathy. Maybe I will do a couple of things, then go to the mall and use one of these gift cards to get some new clothes. Why blog, that's a marvelous idea!
