and the sky opens up
So my boss requested I keep track of my hours for a little while so he can show people what I'm doing during the week, so I don't have people say things like "yeah, she comes in late and leaves early" like they apparently have been.
This week? I worked 54.5 hours. And I'll be working tomorrow, since I haven't done the bulletin for the contemporary service and I have plans to hang out with a kid. Should put me over sixty for the week.
Take that and suck on it, you pencil pushers with your desk jobs and your eight hour days.
I will say that this week is by no means a normal week, since it was our local missions week and I had 7 hours every day of doing mission work around town with youth. BUT STILL. OVER SIXTY HOURS.
I've never logged my hours before. I'm slightly horrified and I think I'm gaining a new appreciation for the whole salaried employee = slave thing that so many people have told me before.
And granted, four hours today was going down to Moore to see Journey to the Center of the Earth in 3D, but this is what they pay me for! And I did sixty hours of it this week!
Oh Lord, that movie. SO VERY LAME. Like I think the only interesting thing about it was that it was in 3D and the little fish with the giant teeth jump RIGHT AT YOU. Yes, I jumped. I jumped so high I think I ended up sitting in the row BEHIND ME and my boss spent the next ten minutes laughing.
It was just so completely improbable. I mean, I don't go to a movie like Journey to the Center blah blah because I think it's going to be so stinking accurate, but COME ON. They rise to the top of the lava tube riding a dinosaur skull, propelled by STEAM created by MOLTEN LAVA. Why aren't they, I don't know, COOKED IN THEIR SKULL? Also! These tubes go from the surface of the earth to the center, yet they are STRAIGHT UP AND DOWN the whole way! How does that work? They go to a shack in the middle of the icy plains in Iceland and a BEAUTIFUL WOMAN answers the door! And she happens to be exactly who they are looking for!
Whatever.
I thought Josh Hutcherson was ADORABLE. I've only seen maybe five minutes of any other movie he's been in (and I think that movie was Zathura) and have no interest in seeing any of the others. Maybe he'll be in something better in the future which I can actually be excited to see. I still have a little crush on Brendan Fraser, even though he continues to make movies that aren't terribly good. Though I'm intensely excited about the new Mummy movie. *crosses fingers*
Had a girls night during which I finally played my High School Musical Mystery Date game that I got for a birthday or Christmas (can't remember which). We played twice and I never won and it's quite possibly the lamest game ever, but pretty hilarious all the same.
Then we played Trivial Pursuit Totally 80s which I SUCK AT since I was basically in infancy during most of the 80s. I could mostly only answer the movie questions, since I have either watched or heard of the vast majority of those. I'm kind of hopeless with anything involving news or sports, but ODDLY ENOUGH, those are the two wedges I ended up with at the end of the game.
OH, 80s. You silly decade. 90s I would be all over, I would KILL that game. And now I wonder if they make it. Must research.
AFTER I SLEEP.
