5 degrees outside! :)
Every time I'm not on LiveJournal, I think of so many interesting things to say on LiveJournal...and then when I actually have the opportunity to update, I can't think of anything to write!
So things are kind of weird, I was feeling excellent until about December 19th or so, but when I came back from seeing my grandma in Colorado, everything took a turn for the worse. I became crazy sick on the Wednesday before Christmas (I work Wednesdays through Saturdays and had to work on Christmas as well...at least I had enough foresight to request Christmas Eve off 6 months ago) and am almost fully recovered...still a little drainage here and there. In addition to that, I've also been feeling very depressed for some reason, although it has gotten better over the past week. Had to go to Minneapolis on New Year's Eve because my friends thought that was a convenient date & place to get married, and of course I had to take shit from everyone for going to bed early that night because I was sick at the time. It was a bad way to start the New Year and things have only started to get better. I attribute a lot of my current stress & negativity to my job, in particular the 10-hour days (12:30 to 11:00 at night) that I work. I need to talk to my manager to change my schedule, but I have to admit that the three-day weekend is awesome...we'll see what happens!
I know this was a dull entry, but I'm mainly just rambling off stream-of-consciousness style here...I'll have to update again when it's not 4:15 in the morning on the night before I have to go back to work!
