Well.. it's Labor Day and I'm at work. I always volunteer to work the holidays because I will get paid 2.5x my hourly rate. But it's SO freaking boring. I will, MAYBE, get ONE call from all three contracts I'm covering. I usually sleep most of the morning, but that's not happening, today. The manager covering the shift keeps making "rounds" by walking around the room every 30 minutes. So no nap time for this grrrl. My weekend was "OK". I played "hookie" on Friday with the intentions of getting some stuff done around the apartment to make room for OiBoy's move. But he ended up playing "hookie", too.. and we just had a very lazy day. I actually had a very lazy weekend. Nice..
Today is OiBoy's THREE years sober. So cool.. Tonight he will go to a men's meeting until 7:00 and then we're going to celebrate at Hickory Hollow and get together with a bunch of friends. We'll celebrate three boys who are celebrating years sober. It'll be nice, hopefully. I didn't really make a big deal this year because I just don't have the money to spend. I got him a beautiful chip.. card and gift certificate at Cactus Music. And a big German Chocolate Birthday Cake!! But.. that's good. Anything is good. I wrote in red lipstick on the mirror this morning. He loved it. ((smile))
He was sick, yesterday. He got some kind of stomach flu. I felt bad because I was really questioning whether he was sick, or not. I know that's shitty of me. But there was just something... I was thinking he was just trying to be lazy and get out of doing community service. But who knows.. and it's really none of my business. It's his ass on the line if he fucks up.. not mine. :)
No other news, really. My ex-is back in Houston. Sticking needles in her arms every day and has hooked back up with her psycho girlie, Gracie. They are living together in a one-bedroom apartment with a couple of other "relapsed alkies and drug addicts". Very nice.. Better them than me. It makes my stomach turn to think about it.
A busy couple of months, ahead. It makes me tired just thinking about it. I'm going to be outta town at the end of September (to my parents in Dallas) and then the wedding (in Michigan) at the beginning of October.
Gotta run.. need to call some more people about tonight.
I hope everyone has an AWESOME Labor Day.
Soon.. soon..
