I might be accused of phoning it in this week. I just can't seem to get out from under. Maybe it is the two long and tiring weekends in a row that I was gone, maybe it is that I just worked 12 hours and didn't accomplish what I wanted to. Maybe it is because I am in a 9 hour wine seminar tomorrow and my ride to the office wants to get to my house at the ass crack of 6:30 a.m. Maybe it is because I made two mistakes today that made me want to plunge a knife in my stomach (even though one started out as someone else's mistake that I just didn't catch).
Hopefully next week I am going to be unbelievable. Ugh, I still have work to do and I am just undermotivated. Effing paperwork.
p.s. After having a bad day at work and knowing that I can't really go into details lest it affect my employment I sometimes consider googling fellow employees names to see if they have blogs and dish the dirt. I haven't yet done this, but it is becoming an urge I can barely resist. Am I the only one who thinks like this? Somehow living with strangers in another country who don't speak English seems remarkably easier, today.
p.p.s. We have had the internet for almost 16 whole HOURS now. The possible solution? The Hub propped up the modem to keep it cool underneath. Could it just have been overheating? And if so, why didn't we have any problems the last FIVE YEARS????? UGH I better go to bed before I just sit here and verbally puke up all my bad mood. Trust me internet, there is a lot to go around. My blog list seems to be having a hard time of it lately, too and that is just feeding it. So I shall off to bed before it gets any worse.

2- I WISH I could get my asshole cat to stand still long enough to take a picture during bath time. He screams like a little girl.
Well I did live in another country and had to figure out in spanish how to get my laptop connected to their cable modem. It was definitely "interesting."
I value my life too much to even attempt cat showering.
