It's All Downhill From Here

So in my last post I was mostly pissed off and ranting because Monday was a stressful and fucked up day. As I had mentioned, next week I am taking off (yay me!), and it was planned that Collin would be taking the 13th off so that we would get a three day weekend together. This was advantageous because we were planning on picking up my brother Sunday morning (Easter) and going to visit my dad and sister. The following is what really ticked me off on Monday:

I went online to check my messages on Myspace and see that my brother had written me back about Easter. He informed me that he had to work on Easter. I kind of flipped out at him... Well not him, but his work place, indirectly... I think. I wrote him back and asked him if he worked for a bunch of "Christ hating jews"... I was a little miffed. I told him I loved him (even if he worked for a bunch of Christ hating jewish people) and we would still work out something for Collin and I to pick up his PC so Collin can see about fixing it (it has been giving him all sorts of grief).

Then, while I was on my lunch Collin texts me and tells me he isn't going to be getting Monday the 13th off after all, even though it had already been approved... Turns out his boss was in an upset mood to put it nicely, and decided he wanted to take all next week off and wanted Collin to move his vacation day. This pushed me over the edge... I was practically foaming at the mouth. I just about lost it here at work. I started furiously texting (I know it sounds funny right?) back to him, and brought up the point that it was already approved and what if I had made plans to where we would be out of town that day, and he knows how difficult it is for me to get time off from work, and on and on and on! I was livid. I told Collin his boss is a self absorbed prick, and doesn't care about anyone but himself and blah blah blah. Looking back, I am amazed I didn't just flip out, snap my phone in half and throw it at the wall.... I was that pissed.

It was basically looking like the whole first part of my vacation was fucked before I even made it to this Friday. I guess someone, somewhere must like me though, because by Tuesday (yesterday) everything fell into place as I wanted it. Joshua pulled some stings at work and called in some favors and now has Easter off, and Collin is taking Monday off with me (he just has to make sure that he leaves instructions on what needs to be done while he is gone that day) and I am content.

I forgot to mention the three movies we watched this weekend (I love Netflix). We saw Pineapple Express again (we rented it from Hollywood Video when it first came out and then forgot to take it off our Netflix queue), and we watched Role Models (it was okay, not as funny as I had hoped but this is why we didn't see it at the theater), and finally we watched Repo: The Genetic Opera.... Yea... It was fucked up. Being that I work in collections... Yea. It was disturbing. About halfway through we got a reprieve from my boss, he needed our help at the office because the server was coming up with a bunch of weird messages (and he's old so it scares him when weird things happen on the computers). Then after we left the office and after we went to the park to do our three miles, we came home and out of morbid curiousity finished the movie (if you can even call it a movie) ... The best part was when Paris Hilton's character's face fell off... That was HI-larious! If you haven't seen it: DON'T! Unless you want to see Paris Hilton's face fall off, then by all means go for it...

I mentioned in the last post I was going to read my Rachael Ray magazine, I did and it was great like always. They mentioned this place (in California, I think it was) that I really REALLY want to visit some time. It's a place where you can go and buy cheap glasses and dishes, then you get outfitted in safety gear, and then you get to smash the stuff to pieces by hurling it at a "target wall"!! Sounds like it would be a great place to go and work off some stress. I wonder if the founder has considered making a chain... She could hire me as long as I get to break stuff for free. What's awesome is that all the broken shards of plates and glasses and what-not get donated to local arts programs to be made into cool stuff.

Oooo, ANTM is on tonight!! Yay for catty bitches! Just need to make it to five... Then need to make it through tomorrow... And the day after tomorrow is FRIDAY!!! It's all downhill from today...

(I almost posted this with it saying "throught tomorrow" but I caught it at the last minute... of course now someone is gonna point out that there are like five other mess-ups on this post right? That would suck...)
