Work is ever so stressful as it gets more intense by the day. It doesn't help that I'm hardly ever healthy...sick 4 times in 2.5 months. I'm finally feeling better just to feel the stress weigh down more than ever before. There is a class that started March 2008 (mine started June 2009) that is almost done...they have a huge final exam in ( Read more... )

I work a 12 hour day and come home to go to bed, and instead encountered an hour of drama.  First off, my friend canceled her fabulous bday weekend in West Palm Beach on Saturday night.  Now I have an empty spot in my calendar!  Ugg ( Read more... )

I had visitors last night, these girls from Melbourne just passing through and needed a place to crash.  I loved having them here.  Some days I wish for a roommate, but that would ultimately be a disaster.  For a brief moment I thought my sister could live here.  She moved back in with mom and dad in June and she is driving them crazy.  I'm so glad ( Read more... )

As much as I want to write about my bad day, I'll forgo that and write about something good ( Read more... )

I don't really want to celebrate my birthday on Friday...but it's coming and a few friends have specified that I HAVE TO celebrate.  Good thing I have friends :)  And some guy at work that took the evil night shift this week that was coming my way which would have ruined my birthday plans.  Yay ( Read more... )

I decide to pick up sushi tonight on the way home from work, and $50 later I have an awesome dinner.  Well I stopped at the liquor store for some sake and also bought a couple bottles of wine.  And got expensive sushi that was absolutely fabulous.  A co-worker described how amazing everything is and he was so right.  I hate that on payday that I ( Read more... )

I totally figured out the best birthday idea ever.  Well maybe it's been done before, but not by me.  I think I want to rent the party bus from the local limo company and go to west palm beach for a girls night out.  My sister did that for her 21st bday (well boys and girls came along) and it was a blast :)  It was like $30 per person for the ( Read more... )

I went to Melbourne and Disney over the last weekend with my one extra day off that I stole...no one at work knows except a good friend.  Yay for time off you don't really have ( Read more... )

The best thing happened to me at work this week (sorry, I didn't win the lottery!):  I received a temporary assignment in the Procedures Group!  I'm a procedure writer for the next 5 weeks, learning a new skill that will someday allow me to work for lots of money...like 3 times what I make now...nuclear procedure writers do well!  And I'm happy.  I ( Read more... )

Every time I think have the "last weekend" of enjoyment before the big work schedule kicks in, there's yet another "big weekend".  So this weekend consisted of the Rum Bar in Palm Beach Gardens, happy hour with the engineers, wine tasting followed by Club 131, and today brunch and movie with the girls.  Not bad!  But this was the absolute last ( Read more... )
