(no subject)
Today is one of TWO days off this week. I have so much to do, but all I want to do is lounge, write and maybe watch a movie. Last night/Yesterday was so stressful at work I just wanted to cry (obviously I didn't. I also didn't kill anyone). I didn't eat at all yesterday (stress) and now I'm not particularly hungry today--which kinda freaks me out. If there's anything at ALL that's steady about my life, it's the intake of food.
Maybe I'll shower and then try eating.
Ack. Things to do before the end of next Monday: Paint my toes, clean my room, clean out the car, buy books, organize closet to hold said books, do laundry, shave, borrow movies from other people...
Some of that stuff I don't want to do until Monday night, simply because it's stuff that needs to be done often, and I won't be able to do it for a while. I know I'll be showering and shaving Monday night--Trying to shower when you can only stand on one leg is the worst thing ever--I can't even imagine trying to shave (and it's vertually impossible to get into or out of our bath tub), and I also know that one last round of laundry is going to be done Monday. These things are all well and good, but I'm also going to have to work on Monday. Probably for 9 hours. And surgery on Tuesday is at like 7am.
*Sigh*
I'm wicked behind on NaNo now too. I ended up taking all of Saturday and Sunday off (well, I wrote like a 300 words each day, but that's way too tiny to count). I don't regret anything I did either of those days--well, I don't regret the non work activities...but I'm only about halfway where I need to be now. Hopefully I'll be able to make up time starting next week.
Tournament! I went to the Tourny on Saturday-it was in Essex, so it was wicked close. Got to see Helen, Matt, Masters D, Yorden (Hathaway, Snider, ect only I don't know them as well and therefore aren't as excited) Sarah, Justin, Andy, Adam, Ms Yost, Justice...
Being the lucky black belt that I am, I spent all day judging. It was pretty cool. I had never been to a tournament in VT before, nor had I ever judged at a tournament before (judging in class, while good, is still a little different). It was great though, because my ring started with the 'Little Duffers', (4 and 5 years old). They were so cute!
I almost called out of work so that I could stay to judge and cheer for the blackbelts. Tournaments start with the kids first, and then the colored belt adults. I always get so indignent thinking about it--Here are all of these blackbelts, who have to sit through all of these other matches, judging all of these other matches, cheering all of these other matches, and then by the time it's their turn, everyone else has left. There's no one else to cheer for the blackbelts (who, by the way, have to judge each other, even if they're competing--no time to stand around and practice, or stretch). I always think it's disrespectful. The only people who I make allowences for are the people with kids under maybe 12.
*grumble*
7 DAYS
not really excited for the surgery yet--still doesn't seem real, but the vacation? Oh, yah....
PS--this entry is 600 words long. Why couldn't I have added that to my NaNo instead??
