So here I sit...in my brother's house (a temporary home for my fiance and myself) with my sister-in-law. About an hour ago, while watching last weeks days of our live and conditioning my softball glove, the power suddenly went out. Very frusterated and feeling sincerely helpless, I stumbled my way up the stairs and our of my safe haven only to sit here and know that I will not be waking up to my alarm clock in the morning and only able to hope that I am not late for work. NYSEG says that it should be back on by 1 am.
Whatam I most pissed off about? The fact that ALL of my work clothes are split between the washer and dryer. And yes they are all still wet. What to do? Just have to look like a rag-doll and wear jeans and a t-shirt to the office yet again tomorrow. OH well...such is life.
Things are only slightly better knowing that my brother and his two kids are in a car on their way to GA. How extremely jealous am I? OH and my fiance is in GA as well. But me...the corporate working girl...has no vacation time until December. It sucks but I guess that somebody has to stay and work. I must say on that note though...that I REALLY love my job. It is absolutely fabulous. I only hope that I continue to love it more and more each day. Certainly there are frusterating days and I hate that I no longer can roll out of bed, run to class in my pajamas and sit through an awe-inspiring lecture given by one of my favorite professors at Queens, but for the most part I love being a working girl in a very laid back corporate office. I can wear jeans, t-shirts, hats, capri's, sandals any thing I want practically. And to me that just makes my life a helluva lot easier.
I know that I have neglected my LJ, but it seems that I have been so indifferent that I cannot bring myself to even write about life. Maybe now I will be back.
I hope that all of you are doing well and that life is treating you kindly. I guess that I will go to sleep and pray that I somehow wake up in the morning.
Goodnight and happy blackout!!!
