I Keep Looking Up...

That way I don't see the shit I am wading through...

Okay, seriously though, things are okay. Spaz is 100% A-Okay, it's sunny out today, and I might finally take the truck to get a bath this weekend.

I have been holding off because everytime I think I will go do it rain pops up in the seven day forecast, and in my eyes makes the carwash a waste of money. We'll see what the forecast looks like Friday night/Saturday morning.

I haven't posted much on here this month. I think it is my way of being in denial. You know, kind of ignore the passage of time and the fact that June seems to have disintegrated before my very eyes... Collin's last day at work is two weeks from this Friday. Regardless of how much I tell myself, "We have a plan and we will be perfectly fine!" There is still a tiny, obnoxious, nagging voice in the deep dark recesses of my brain saying, "It is not okay, it will not be okay, and you're screwed." I hate the pessimist in me... Overall, I really am not that terribly worried. Collin is a genius and I know he will find something.

We have started playing the Wii again (for a while we were dazzled and enamored by the PS3), and started making up our own little challenges on Wii Sports Resort. We have played Table Tennis with our eyes closed, and have a blast seeing who can get the lowest score in 100-Pin bowling (which is a heck of a lot harder than you would think!). It's a good way to spend our evenings now that all of our shows are on their annual summer hiatus. The only thing we really have on right now is Hell's Kitchen.

Work is a nasty four letter word, and I sincerely hope that the changes we will be undergoing next month will make a drastic improvement in the long run (I know better than to expect instant gratification with anything new).

I need to figure out what to do with my vacation time (and no they won't cut me a check for the value of the pay). I have a week and three days of vacation time. Typically, I would take the week of our anniversary off, but this year is different. Firstly, if (hopefully) Collin is working he won't have the time to take with me, and after the last year of not having time off together I really don't need a week of vacation spent ALONE. Then there is the flip side; if Collin is not working, he will be home but we won't have any money to do anything really. So it all boils down to, what's the effing point!?! I don't know, I just know I do need the time away from this place....

Looking outside, there are a bunch of high clouds that are making it hazy. I hate that, because then it being a little warm begins to feel muggy and thick and oppressive... And as I look at the sky, I can see that there's a whole bunch of blue sky just to the west of the office... Figures. There always seems to be an oppressive haze hanging over this place. Haha... Couldn't help but be a little melodramatic there.

OH-A-MY-A-GOD!!! I AM SURROUNDED BY IDIOTS! Okay, not really surrounded, but do you ever feel that way? What's even worse is that it is one person who is causing all this headache and frustration... I call this person FurPits... And sadly, that is all I can say on the topic without going all crazy and shit...

I am bored with work... For the first time in the last year, I am 100% current and caught up with all my normal day-to-day tasks. There is a bunch of other things I could be working on and will hopefully be getting to this week, but I am enjoying being caught up. At the same time, it makes my days unbearably long. I can only straighten up my desks (yes I am that important that I have two =D ) so many times. OoOoOo, one project I can work on this week (tomorrow), is reorganizing one of the filing cabinets and make new labels!!! YAY!!! No, really, I am excited about this, I have been putting it off for WAY too long. And then, maybe next month I can reorganize the "document room" that houses all our back up paperwork....

Woah, I was getting a little too excited there. Need to simmer down now.

Now to go and try very VERY hard not to kill any of my employees.
