The Downers
I have a high state of resentment for the conformity in this country.
If you're not married and having children, it's like your life is empty and you're a communist meanie.
- Bill Maher Greetings All! How're you doing? I hope you're all doing much better than I am. As much as I want to say my life has been all hunky dory these past couple weeks while I haven't been posting, I can't. There's been a lot on my mind recently and I've been feeling depressed. But really there's no real reason why my life shouldn't be happy. My classes are going as well as can be hoped, I have good friends, I'm spending time enjoying myself outside of class, but I still feel depressed. I still get back to my room every night and mope around on the internet. I haven't even felt up to getting on TheO and visiting all of your wonderful sites. It's just been an odd two weeks for me. I really hate to bum y'all out like this, but that's the way things have been. Please pray for me that everything gets better for me and that these issues I'm working through get sorted out. I don't want to continue like this. It's too depressing.
Werkin and Not Werkin
My work has been interesting these past couple of weeks. Scheduling has been as crazy as a monkey in tights. One minute we're scheduled to be calling on Saturday, then we're not, then we're off for a week and a half. It's been weird. But, everything has made it back into the swing of things. We have a steady work schedule now. The only downside to work this pas week has been the fact that Saturday morning I slept through my shift. I woke up at about 1:00 PM when my cell phone rang. It was horrible. I panicked. I don't think I'll be fired for this minor transgression, but I'm not sure. I sent an extremely apologetic email to my boss and I pray it works. Heh heh! The last thing i need right now is to lose my job.
Hairless
Yup, I got my hair cut. Go figure. The crappy stuff had only grown TWO INCHES since Thanksgiving when I last got it cut. Since it doesn't look very good at a medium length, and I didn't wanna live with medium length hair for the next 6 months while the stuff grows, I decided to get it cut. I didn't know what I wanted to do with it, so I just went to a stylist in the mall and said "make it look cool." So, what you see there in that picture is what she did. Yup. I like it. I think it does look cool. But, with the way she cut it it doesn't really look very good without any product, so I have to use this putty-like stuff every morning. Now I remember why I don't like short hair all that much. Working with my hair and making it do what i want it to is like pushing a wet noodle up a staircase. It doesn't cooperate at all. I'm getting better at taming it though. It was taking me about 10 minutes to get the stuff to do what I want it to. Today it only took about 3 - 5. So, yeah. I'm getting better. I still want longer hair though.
Currency Conundrum
Remember that coin I showed you all in that last post? (if you don't remember it, just scroll down) Well, I figured out its origin. Ya see, my dad is a world traveler. For his job he goes all over, especially in east and south Asia. Once he brought me back some little miniature movie poster magnets from Thailand. When I was going though my refrigerator a few days ago looking for something edible I noticed one of the magnets for a Thai movie and realized that the writing on that poster looked very similar to the writing on that coin. As it turns out, it is the same writing. That coin is a 5 baht piece from Thailand. How it made it into my coin roll I have no idea. But, get this, it's actually worth about 25 cents! HAHA! I thought that was hilarious. So, that little mystery is taken care of.
Well, I really have nothing else to say of any real importance. As I said, the last couple weeks have been a bit of a downer for me. Perhaps soon I'll have more on my mind that I feel worth posting about. I hope you all have better days than mine and I'll see ya 'round TheO! (eventually) Sayonara!
