Dread

It's sunday night, the night before the beginning of a new work week. Thinking about it my eye has already begun to twitch, which I believe cannot be a good sign. In any event, it's time to go back and deal with the usual office characters which by the way have a new addition. Cruela de Vil has joined the cast of annoying people that I have to deal with. She thinks that because she's upper management (not part of my department by the way) she can come into my office, even though I am clearly on the phone, and proceed to demand things. She's such a (insert whatever nasty word you feel like saying here because she is most certainly all of them).

I had a good weekend I think, had a date on Friday which I had to say went well and I went to a wedding in Albany on saturday. The wedding was beautiful, outdoors, gorgeous day everything was dandy that it until people started to dance. I commend them for trying, but indeed I had never seen that much bad dancing collectively in one place ever. No one had any rhythm, that's something I don't understand. I just kept shaking my head the whole time. I do give them credit for trying and and a bit of advice, if you don't have rhythm, waving your hands in the air all the time while trying to dance just makes it worse.

In other news.......

After all that venting I should let you know that I went to Yoga last night at Integral as I mentioned before. I am happy with the way the studio is set up and the way they teach so I'm pretty sure that's where I will be going from now on. The commute (work to studio, studio to home) is not as bad as I thought it was going to be. I should have gone there from the get go like everyone told me instead of putting myself through the pain of "Debbie" twice over. Anyhoo, I've down graded from a level 3 to level 2 for now and I'm glad I did. Since I haven't had a steady pratice in the past 2 months I've lost some of my strength and need to gain it back before attempting a full practice. I think in about a month I will be back to the level 3 and on my way to inner peace again. Om Shanti!

Restless Fans

To all the restless fans that have been eagerly awaiting a new post from me, I apologize for the delay. I've been rather distracted so I haven't really been posting even though I have a lot to say.

As you all know, Harry Potter rules my life now. This year it's taken me a long time to finish the book (due to life distractions) but I'm not complaining, so far so good.

I'n other news, Tinky Winky managed to make me so angry yesterday I almost physically harmed her. Although that would be difficult being that all she would have to do is sit on me and I would be crushed by her massive ass...she sent a real nasty e-mail to me and copied of course the world. Do you know how upset that makes me? I on the other hand made my anger known to Mrs. Potatohead. Of course I never learn, being as she doesn't back up her staff this incident ended up being my fault and she went of with her buddy Tinky Winky. Oh! how much I dislike them both! But they are truly made for each other.

I just don't get why you have to be nasty to someone, much less why do you have to copy the world on a stinking e-mail. Seriously people, have some common courtesy. It's bad enough we have to put up with crap from employees in this office but why should we have to deal with nasty co-workers too. Needless to say, I think I need to find a way out soon, I don't think I should have to deal with stupid people in higher management level positions unless they are smarter than I am which they are not. Can you tell that I'm still upset about this?

No Yoga

I didn't get a chance to make it to yoga class today. It's ok though because it was a pretty entertaining day so I wasn't bad.

Sleep

I need sleep, I couldn't get any rest last night because of the heat. I couldn't turn on the AC because the power kept going off. Not a happy camper today. I'm going to try yoga at Intergral today, I'm sure it will be better than that other icky place.

Now I have to do some work I guess and stay awake (Hell to the No!). (Special comment for the Nemesis :-))

Lubricant

It seems like I always have an "observation" about someone at work, for the most part Mrs. Potatohead. So, today she's talking tome about her kid, which she just started on day care. So, she's talking to me right and saying that finding a good sitter is tough and that good babysitters make a lot of money and how they don't have to market themselves if they are good because everyone knows about them and they get a lot of work. Then she proceeds to tell me that "if you are a good babysitter you make good money, because baby sitting is a very lubricant business". I kid you not she said that to me. I held it in, I really did an awesome job of not laughing in her face, but I did immediately turn around and went right into the nemesis' cube for a good laugh. You know she's probably said that to other people to and nobody corrects her. Hey who wouldn't be confused, lubricant, lucrative, there the same word right?

Great

I had a very good weekend, tiring but good. I went to that yoga class again. It was a real drag having to go through the pain again but I had already paid for it so I figured it wou;dn't hurt. This time Jocelyn a.k.a Debbie was describing poses as "supermodelly", and saying would should stay in the "situation" - "make sure sure you keep the same leg situation" or "find the situation that is most comfortable to you. I mean, I've been guilty of referring to things as a situation, but not when it comes to yoga. P.S. stopping in the middle of class to do sit ups is not acceptable, thats not why people do yoga.

So, I went to Lady Di's housewarming and had a ton of fun. There were a few people and lots of drinking and dancing. You know you are having an awesome party if the police come to break up the fun. I met up with Pupihead on sunday and also went to my sister's house for dinner. That's pretty much it. I already have a few things lined up for next weekend so it might be rough. I have to stay home on Saturday morning for my ritual of waiting for the UPS/FedEx guy to come with my Harry Potter book. After that I'm free but not before.

5 days, 5 days to HP6!

London

I must say that the events that took part today in London are horrifying. I can't believe that people still believe that killing each other is the way to a "better" life. We should realize that life is too short and there are other things that we can be focusing on like helping each other and learning to accept people as they are.

Happy 4th

Well this weekend was long and good. The bad part is having to come back to work. I couldn't even get up today I was so tired. I did go to PA on Saturday but I didn't make it to the second party. We got lost on the way there so I couldn't just make an apperance, I had to stay. Sunday I hung out with V-pickle all day, just kinda stayed around my house and talked and stuff. Monday I went to the beand and a BBQ with the G-Unit. It was fun, but going all the way down to the Jersey Shore can be tiring.

The good news for today is that Magpie is coming back to live in NYC again. I also did best best at work today being that I was so tired. I think I put in a good 10% effort and came out victorious in my quest not to think all day. Tomorrow I think I'm going to a yoga class at that horrible studio again. I know I have my issues with them but I already paid for it so might as well try it.

It's Saturday and a Three day weekend

Also wanted to advise all of what my goings on will be for this weekend which is not much. I'm going to a birthday party in Pennsylvania of all places. That should be quick, I'll make an apperance and leave. Already I feel like a celebrity. Then I was supposed to come back into the city for another birthday party in the evening but I'm not sure if I want to go now, I have to check with my sister to see if she is going. (Note to self: need to get eyebrows done today before I leave). I have nothing on the schedule for tomorrow and I have a BBQ with the G-unit on Monday.

So far saturday morning has treated me well, I woke up to the sounds of birds chirping (yes in NYC you can have that) because my window is open. There is such a nice breeze coming through which is soothing compared to the weather we've been having. There also seems to be a muslim man praying/chanting, not sure which, but for some odd reason I think that it's really cool and enjoy the sounds of that.

Also I finished the Secret Life of Bees which was an awesome book, but I'm not picking up another book because Harry Potter is coming out in like 14 days. I'm saving my reading energy for that.

It wouldn't be the same

It just wouldn't be the same if I didn't share a "comment" about Mrs. Potatohead. Her birthday was yesterday so of course everyone in the office must know it's her birthday and talk about it all day. Good thing I was with Nemesis in another part of the floor I didn't have to hear it for most of the day, however when I got back to my desk at 4pm she was at it. It seems like they have no consideration for people that actually do work! I wasn't at my desk all day so I was really backed up and wanted to concentrate on getting a few things out of the way before I left. That of course did not happen because Mrs. Potatohead and five of her "friends" (who(m) believe you me will have names assigned to them very shortly, one of them I already call Jabba the Hut which is very appropriate if you look at her carefully)carrying on like their at a party laughing and screaming and making so much noise I couldn't even hear the voices in my head anymore!

Anywho, at that point I decided it wasn't worth the effort so I organized the piles on my desk and went to have drinks with NC.I'm glad that some people are allowed to have so much fun at work while others get worked to the bone. How equitable! (Sigh)

Week Wrap Up

I really have been meaning to blog all week but it didn't start a good week for me to I kept the information to myslef until now. I felt really sick on Sunday and had to go to the emergency room. The left side of my body was numb so I figured that if anything merits me being in the ER this was it. So I went into the NYU ER. I was expecting to see lots of yucky stuff but this ER was nothing like the ER on TV. There was almost noone there and the doctos and nurses casually stroll to see patients.

So after much poking at me the cute doctor decides that they can't diagnose me in the ER and they refer me to a Neurologist that I go to see, to be poked and poked over again, to have tests after test done, to find out that I don't have anything really serious. I was a bit worried there because something like that never happened to me before so this was all new.

All is semi-well now. I'll keep you posted if anything happens.
