Thursday, March 23, 2006 Please please please, no more maladies, I'm so tired of crying, you'd think I was a siren....Three more months? Three more months???!!! THREE MORE MONTHS! I have to deal with all of my crazy mother trucking co-workers at my job that I loathe for 3 more months. I swear I am going to have a mental breakdown before June 30th. IIt's been almost a YEAR that this has been going on. That I've been getting promises without any kind of yield. Everything just keeps getting indefinitely postponed. I know I've said I was at my wits end before, but I am in fact sitting here at work in tears. If only there was some way that I could just have a day. Shit, even a couple of hours to just turn off my mind and not be so overwhelmed with all of this stuff. But I can't even make any of it go away.
All I want to do is crawl into the corner of my cube and cry right now, but oh no. I have 1000 freakin things to do and I'll be here until ohhh about 4am tomorrow. And then I have to wake up and jaunt on back down here tomorrow. #12, #12, #12, #12.....

No, I don't actually work at Henry Ford. But they are probably one of the best sleep centers in the country though.
Thanks for digging the blog. When I actually get to write in it.
And I'm sure you weren't the worst homecoming date ever. If it makes you feel any better, I have developed a fondness for bowling. Although I prefer not to do it in red heels and a corsage.
You REALLY need to get hip to how employers, educators, and anyone bored at work with an internet connection can find your blog (and any negativity inside it). I know you are clever, so I'm assuming you don't care that your employers read your diatribes against them. But DAMN!
