Despite A Small Success, I'm Feeling Blue Today
There's nothing really cohesive about this post. Just bear with me. Or, you know, don't.
Last night I set my alarm for 5:00 am, as I have for the past two weeks, with the notion that I would get up and do cardio this morning, which I have skipped for the past two weeks. This morning, however, I got up! At 5 am! And did my cardio! It was glorious, I have to admit. The workout itself was nothing to write home about (or blog about, ya know?) as it was just a 3.25 mile job on the treadmill, but it was exercise and it was done this morning and I consider it a small success for today.
I was also able to walk the dogs at 5 am (before heading to the fitness center) and cloak my dog from the judging eyes of neighbors who leave early for work. Because no one leaves at 5 am for work, at least not where we live. At 6, though, the time that I usually take them, there are plenty of people outside checking us out. It sucks having to hide my baby girl in the dark and not be able to take her to the dog park, the one right there in the community where she has happily played with people and other dogs and never, ever been aggressive simply because some douche-fuckface-asshole thinks she is an "aggressive breed." I want to punch that person in the face. Repeatedly.

I skipped grocery shopping this week to save money. I'm running out of pantry ideas to feed HP. Fortunately tonight is Date Night which means he's taking me out to dinner! Hooray! Do you think I could make faux crab cakes with canned tuna? Because that might be what he gets tomorrow night. Saturday he's going to be golfing most of the day and I think I'm going to head to BJs and check out a membership and see if I can save money that way.

There's been no response to the eloquent follow-up email I sent yesterday to the dude with whom I interviewed on Friday (and did I mention that I kicked that interview's ass? Because I did.)

We're leaving in four weeks to head to Seattle and boarding the dogs is going to cost about $1,000. This is causing me a great deal of stress.

The ice chewer behind my cube wall (who, by the way, I have never seen in person. I only know her voice and her INFURIATING CHEWING SOUNDS) also chews her food with her mouth open. MOUTH OPEN. Who the fuck chews with their mouth open? It's disgusting.

Three tenured, full time employees have come to me this morning with different questions about processes, troubleshooting problems, and computer issues. I have been here less than three weeks and make $14/ hr. With no insurance. I'm able to answer their questions because I AM SMART AND A FAST LEARNING AND POSSESS CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS. This frustrates me.

This is kind of a grouchy post I suppose but, meh, you can see that I'm feeling a bit blue, no?
