WORDS WITH FRIENDS...

I am absolutely losing my mind! I have the app "words with friends" because my beautiful & wonderful cousin Melanie told me to play. So i started a game with her, some friends from work, my uncle, & my friend Johnny. I love these people, I truly do. But what I love more is kicking their asses in WWF!! And damn it if Johnny isn't ruining all my fun! I'm too competitive to be beat 97% of the time by Johnny! It's wearing on me and I'm fairly certain that if I can't beat him at WWF, then I am going to have to take out his shins one kick at a time!! =) Damn you Johnny #1. thanks for saving my life from drowning in a freezing pond in college, but AHHHHH!!! stop beating me.

as requested...

Work hours! AHHHHHHHHH!!!! So when i started at this temp job I said I was willing to work any hours, bc quite frankly I don't have much of a life and they needed volunteers OR they were gonna just draw names, and some people actually have spouses, kids, other type works and can't do it, so I took one for the team!! My current job has three shifts, we work 24 hrs a day. So I get in around 11p and work thru the night and eventually make it home around 8am!! Just in time to crawl in bed as all my neighbors leave for work (so, IDEAL PARKING SPACE & QUIETNESS!!--except the stupid lady upstairs, who sometimes runs late for work and therefore stomps around for a good 20mins before finally leaving).
It has it's perks, I mean I am always on time for work (HUGE NEWS, since i was in such a habit over the last year of showing up basically whenever i wanted!) there is very little traffic (except coming home sucks!) I get to be the MOST entertaining person in the world during the hours of 1am and 5am-- and it is totally acceptable to be quite looney during those hours (you get less judgmental looks) and they say the uncontrollable laughter leads to burning more calories-- yippee!!
The not so good news is: i sleep the day away, i only work with 5 people, and i get very cranky when i don't get much sleep! plus, it does limit the social life-- BLAH! So, on that note... off to see GREASE (featuring Taylor Hicks) with my momma, then off to a night of work!! yep, i work friday AND saturday nights... boo!
HOPE THAT HELPS NIKI-- THIS ONE'S FOR YOU! =)

first over night...

I survived the over night shift. I whined (a little, for me, it was a little) but I survived. It gets long around 5am, that's when you're like "what the f' am i even doing here?!" but I survived. So, headed back for tonight, I really hope this is a week long event, not a forever event. On a side note: if i get my booty in gear I could line up some interviews during the day so I could get my dream job (since I was passed up for the last dream job interview I had-- boo!!) So, let's get some big things moving for me-- gotta get that job, pay the bills, live a good life! =) in the meantime, think of me while you're all passing out and drifting off to dreamland! GOODNIGHT MY FRIENDS!!

when did i become so old?

I am starting a new work schedule that consists of me going into work at 11p one night and staying until 8am the next morning. For those of you that don't know ... I'm a big dork and haven't stayed up til 8 in the morning since... that one time Joey, Ann and I went to McGurks and met a group of very nice young men who were celebrating their friends upcoming wedding, in town from KC, so we showed them around the city of St Louis & parts just outside of St Louis! =) Otherwise, typically, I'm in bed at a VERY decent hour (10p) and enjoy my sleep very much! anyway... the point being, I'm old and not all that capable of staying awake so late, i'm just months from being the person who falls asleep in the recliner while watching prime-time television... I hope this works out!!
