I think I forgot how to play my guitar
Because of the flower business and Mother's Day being THE biggest floral holiday, especially out here in the suburbs, I finally saw the light of day just yesterday for the first time in five days. We were machines there for a few days, getting to work at 6:30am, leaving at 10:30pm, getting about four or five hours of sleep and doing it all over again and again and again. No time to sleep or eat or pee or anything. And it's not like we just were there for almost 15 hours every day, we were working at hyperspeed the whole time. My legs and feet were swollen every night, and every night I passed out within minutes of finally sitting down to watch Conan. My baby was with my grandma or my sister-in-law all day long every day. One of our designers was actually hit by a truck (while she was in her car) just as she was pulling into our parking lot, and she had to sit out there for 2 hours waiting for the cops to decide which jurisdiction really held the responsibility of driving their fat asses out their to take the report or see if everyone was okay. The truck driver didn't even have insurance, and i heard not even a license. Our water system burst twice, spraying floralife water all over the place. Then after the slow-ass "fix-it" guy came and left within fifteen minutes, the water turned bath-hot even though we have no water heater. Another designer's asshole husband made her stay home and clean the house on Sunday, wouldn't "let" her go to work where she wanted to be, and didn't even say "Happy Mother's Day" to her much less get her anything, and neither did her kids. My mother couldn't get out of bed one morning and got really scared because she just couldn't move for hours because she does this kind of schedule all the time. She actually thought she was having a stroke, but of course she didn't go to the hospital. My younger brother mysteriously and predictably disappeared for the whole stretch as he usually does at crunch times. My other brother showed up, but left early whenever his wife would whistle for him like a dog. She actually asked him to leave early one day because she had a bad day at work that day, and another day when she suddenly had a headache and wanted him to come home and watch her study......
I had to skip all of my classes and of course there was no practicing. I went to practice yesterday just by playing songs I know already by heart (mostly a lot of KH songs) and it was kind of scary. I almost didn't want to pick it up. I'm mad at myself for missing class last week for work, but I knew I would be. So I have class tonight and I'm going to have to ask what we did like a big idiot. But we had like 1000 orders just on Saturday, what could I do? This was like five Valentine's Days in a row. It was harsh. And for Mother's Day, I was still at it. The last two days I've been eating and sleeping a lot because it's all I want to do. So, hopefully I'll have something more interesting to say later, maybe after my classes tonight.
