More life changes and thoughts
So, I've been on a health kick lately. I've wanted to get in shape for a while, but I'm finally doing something about it. Since Leaving Mike made me feel so much better emotionally and mentally, I figure I should get my outsides to match my insides... so to speak... Anyway, I'd been thinking about this for a while and over the course of this month I've been trying to transition into the diet I'm hoping to maintain once I get out of this hell hole and into a place where I can use the kitchen without feeling disgusted (August-September is the goal). When I can get it I've been buying all natural food (and, btw: all natural Cheetos are SO much better than the original). I've also decided to give vegitarianism a whirl. Not going to go into all the reasons why, don't want to sound preachy and whatnot. So far things have been going wonderfully. I actually haven't had any issues with my acid reflux or anything since I started this :). Except for joint issues as a result of being on my feet all day (and walking to and from work) I feel fabulous. I'm so happy that things are coming together. I have a fabulous job with the most amazing boss, I'm still learning so I still make mistakes sometimes, but I've only been walking there a few weeks so it's understandable. Worst was Monday... I had a very off day and everything went wrong... and on my first really busy day too. I screwed a couple things up, Jon fucked up something on the computer and Crystal made it worse because she was rushing to fix it. Then we had issues in the snack bar... aaaaaaaand the power went out for a minute which, in turn, knocked out the computer systems. Yeah, it was a fun day. It's mostly good, though, I'm now making $10 an hour now and since school is out, leagues are starting and the weather's been bad it's been busy. I think this is the first job where I've hoped for bad weather >.<.
In other news... I seem to have injured myself somehow. I started having ankle pain this week, thought it was just normal aches and pains from being on my feet so much... then it got worse. I ended up limping most of my shift today. Thankfully my mother had today off so I didn't have to walk home. I think I pulled a tendon or something, since the pain is in one specific area and hurts most when I move it certain ways. We stopped by Walgreens on the way home and I got an ankle support and an ACE bandage, I've had my ankle wrapped since I got home and it already feels a lot better. Tomorrow will hopefully be better. I'll also take some ibuprofen before I leave.
Alright, it's getting late and I'm going to relax for a bit before I go to bed. One of these days I'll get around to posting some of the amusing stories from work >.
