The heat never bothered Rebecca anyway.
One of the few things I miss about my hometown is that I knew where everything was there. At work today, I had to make deliveries to two new locations, one on a very small side street, and one on a busy street downtown. It took me soooo long to find both of them, and when I did finally find the downtown location, I could only find a parking spot three blocks away. So I had to walk there lugging a dolley full of boxes. At one point, the dolley hit a curb, the top box fell off and flew open, and I had to run around like a jackass picking up envelopes. Ugh. Since summertime weather is here now, by the time it was over, it felt like my pants were plastered on me. I need to buy a new pair of pants for work since a few days ago, I somehow got bleach on mine while cleaning the bathrooms (I blame it on Mom's genes). Boss-Man just implemented a chore wheel where we all take turns cleaning different areas, and this week, I got the bathrooms. Boss-Man complimented me on how nice they looked afterwards; I guess if I ever need it, I'll have scrubbing toilets to fall back on.
It's frustrating to not know where I'm going, but I swore to never ask Boss-Man for directions again, since the last time I did it, he said, "It's on the way to XYZ. You've been to XYZ, right?" Me: "No, I've never been to XYZ." He jaw-dropped, stared at me like I was the freakiest five-headed thing he'd ever seen, and repeated, "I can't believe you've never been to XYZ!" at least five times. It was months ago, but I haven't been able to let go of it. Lately it seems like I can't let go of a lot of things, it seems.
Speaking of letting go, is anyone else tired of that song? It's been getting a lot of radio play since it won an Oscar, and I actually like it, but I don't like Idina Menzel's cover of it, which of course is the one that always gets played. I just don't think her voice is suited to the song. I have Demi Lovato and Lexi Walker's covers on my iPod, and I think either one of them does it much better. I'm also reeeeally sick of "Say Something" and "All of Me." I can't wait till their radio days are over!
This has been a very whiny post, so to end it on a positive note, I got two Shabbat dinners in a row! There was one at my hometown temple when I was there for Memorial Day weekend, and there was one at the temple here last Friday. I'd given my friend Sharon a plarn purse just before, and I wouldn't accept any money for it (I really don't feel right charging any), so she sneakily paid for my dinner instead. The food was a bit more healthy than I would've liked, but I still enjoyed it.
