so when i am stressed out by the massive amounts of papers pinned to the side of my workspace, i have lttle things around to cheer me up. picture of my dad & joanne, betsey johnson fragrance sample, my good luck kitty bank i got at epcot, my hello kitty mousepad which i've brought with me to every job since science kit, my favourite mug, pictures of my cats, and my rasberry hand cream.
i almost don't mind going to work.
well theo is ok. his fever came down and he was on some pain meds, and is still taking his antibotic. i have to take him back in a couple weeks for a check-up. but he's as playful as ever, maybe even more so. he wakes me up now, every morning, by laying on my head pawing my face and hair. i haven't really figured out if this is cute or the most annoying thing ever. i think it could be a combination.
the snow is getting to me this year. it just feels like i work, come home, sleep, work, come home, sleep. every day. i feel literally like i don't have a minute to catch my breath. doctors appointments, and now physical therapy every week for three months? waking up every morning is basically the worst feeling ever, will there be tons of ice and snow on the ground? will my car tires be slashed? will people drive like assholes down virginia street to the 190 entrance and run me into guard rails? well. i just can't wait until june when the snow will be gone and i can move away from this street where i can never park or walk down the sidewalk without tripping on cobblestone or almost get hit by someone's bmw or audi as they speed down the thinnest, one way street in the city.
i got my tourist guide to tybee island tonight. i looked at it for an hour while waving "mousie on a stick" in front of theo and junie, and dreamt of being there in the sun and beach bonfires and taking my nephews on the river.
i can't even keep track of all my doctors/dentists/therapists/physical therpists appointments over the next few months. no lie, so tired.
good news is, my medicine isn't making me SO crazy anymore, i feel alot better (side effects wise). the only thing it does is KNOCK me out immediatley.. i mean i used to fall asleep at midnight after a half hour of letterman every night.. now i take it at 10:30.. and don't even remember falling asleep. just gone.
yawn.
