saturday morning after a long week (that went fast)
its saturday morning and i am up early watching my cartoons like the old days. monkey has already abandoned me... i guess he has lots of exciting things to do today, like eat plastic or stare at the walls. i am drinking my first cup of coffee (thanks jame) and eating some toast. yes, the toast facination continues. i am going through so much bread that dr. atkins is rolling in his grave. but bread is good, at least i eat whole wheat... lots of fiber (now that i'm almost 30 and all!)
i woke up thinking that i was starting to get sick. on further inspection i think its a combination of allergies and being worn out from this hard week.
first there has been the stress of monkey being sick. i didn't get into it much on here but monkey ate some plants that he wasn't supposed to last weekend. they weren't toxic, but monkey threw the leaves up, and kept throwing up over the next couple days even though his stomach was empty. he'd eat a little then couldn't keep it down. after a few days of experimenting with what to give him... ie wet food, hidding his kibble... i managed to get him to the point that he was keeping stuff down, and as of 2 days ago he was eating his regular food again. as of yesterday he is back to being a big old pig again. yea!
second was the stress at work. things have picked up again and i have been stuck with a lot of late nights at work. on top of that i was coming home more soaked in dirt and oil than normal, and too tired to really do anything other than lay down, watch tv, and keep an eye on monkey.
last night i really wanted to go out but i didnt have the energy. this week i did catch up on some video rentals which was nice. i highly recommend both "walk the line" and "lord or war." today? maybe i'll get the energy to goto big mamas for some greasy breakfast with the boys.... and this afternoon i could use some supplies from home depot.... but right now, i don't really feel like moving.
