This morning my dog woke me up at 5am. I got up, got my shoes and coat on to take her outside...and she was already asleep again. stare So I blew my nose [I'm getting sick and had been having trouble breathing for it last night], took my shoes off and fell back into my bed to sleep till 6. Last thing I saw was Aria grinning at me and cuddling up to me where my coat didn't cover. What a weird dog.
At work I ended up with the Tamarack/Birch Run, which basically means I have a run and a half to do, but most of the centers are "as needed" so take 30 seconds to check, rather than 15 minutes to clean. By 8:45 I'd completed my centers, which sucks, because I had 30 minutes to find work to do till break. [We do our dailies after 9:30 so that we don't wake anyone.] I ended up trashing and cleaning up spills. Did more trashing and restocking after break, too. -_-
Ended up having to buy Icy Hot Patches just to make it through the day. *sigh* Well, on the bright side, the patch I wore helped clear up my stuffy nose for a while...
But, I had to clean a vomit spill. Sick + weak stomach to the smell of vomit [which burns my nose] + vomit spill = very sick and miserable Chels. My supervisor came down to give me a message while I was in the bathroom...thankfully I didn't vomit so she couldn't tell I was sick and she didn't ask any questions, either. Maybe she doesn't dislike me as much as I thought...
Just gotta remember to get Pepto tomorrow if I'm still sick. sweatdrop
What really sucks is, today I discovered they changed my PRN day for tomorrow to a regular work day. And because I'm not feeling good I'd really been banking on getting a day off tomorrow. *sigh* Oh well, on the bright side, I get Monday off and get paid then, too!
On Tamarack someone asked me if I had Irish blood in me. She said my dark hair and light blue eyes were typical Irish hair and eyes. How weird is it that just by my eye and hair color she was guessing about my heritage? [Funny note: I am, in fafct, part Irish. Mostly Norwegian, though. One of my dreams is to learn Gaelic and Norwegian.]
Just before my 2 o'clock break I had a bloody nose. Just when I discovered I could get off early because I was moving so fast. Then I had a bloody nose that took twenty minutes outta my day... stare Oh well. I had ice cream on break, so I was happy. *loves ice cream*
On the way home my Mom chewed me out about not having a car or apartment yet. Though, if she'd stop bugging me about money for this or that I'd be able to save up enough to actually GET my license. Which will cost about $500 to do. $100 to get the license and $400 for driver's ed. Then I'd need money for a car...and money for an apartment. But before that I'd need a roommate! *sigh* She says I "just don't understand' the strain she's under since I can't drive. And I do. Very well. It's why I feel so terrible every day she has to get up that she doesn't work to take me in. But she doesn't believe I feel bad for it.
