I'm starting another randoms post

[5kcandlesinthewind]

Because it's what I do.

* Someone called the program cell phone at 1:30 this morning. It was on vibrate, so it didn't wake me up right away. And then I didn't answer it. H was like, "don't you need to answer that?" And I said, "meh." Honestly, I'm not a doctor, an EMT, a fire-fighter, or a cop, and I don't have keys to the apartments, so there's very little I can help you with at that hour.  I did wait to see if they called back, and I would have called them back had there been a message, but since neither happened, I went back to sleep.  I do not get paid enough for that shit, and after spending all last week breaking down because I am stressed to capacity (including in a meeting with my faculty chair and staff, YAY PROFESSIONALISM!), I do not. care.

* A girl I was friends with a million years ago wrote on my FB wall yesterday that Lena Dunham on Girls reminds her of me. I'm offended, so I'm ignoring it. I hate that show with the fire of a million suns, and I think Lena Dunham is annoying, pretentious twat who will look back at her 20s and DIE OF EMBARRASSMENT.  Plus, she dates a dude from Fun(Period), who suck.  And I cannot figure out why anyone would think that was a compliment. "Oh, hey, you know that neurotic girl who's kind of funny, kind of entitled, and super weird? You totally remind me of her!"

* I told H we need to go away for a few days in April, because I cannot take it anymore.  The other day, I was looking up hotels, and Jack started hacking.  Then, as I was lying in bed thinking about where to go, he threw up. Yesterday, at the very moment I was pricing packages 4 miles away from him, he threw up again. THE EFFING DOG IS PSYCHIC!  It's like he knows the only thing actually holding me back from booking something is guilt about leaving his crazy ass in a kennel.  Grrrr.

So there are doing all this water line replacement in my neighborhood. I guess they are doing my street now, which kind of sucks, because the noise starts at 7 am and I am off tomorrow for Spring Break and I wanted to sleep in.

I am still waiting on the job offer... it may be another week still... maybe longer. It's hard being patient, especially when I'm asked to do all sorts of BS work that is not my responsibility. I am just tired.

I snuck out of the office 3 minutes early and felt like it was a real personal victory. I am even making a 6pm Pilates class in Lexington.

I wore real pants today. That's a personal victory these days, lol.

I polished off most of a box of cheesy Ritz Bits this afternoon. I hate myself for it, but I needed that weird salty crunch that only they can provide. Processed food had sounded delicious lately, and that's usually not like me.

Also, Fun. is closing in on Maroon 5 as SCM's most hated band, so I'm with you on that one.

I don't get them, or their stupid name at all. I mean, they basically butchered the hell out of Cecilia, which is kind of blasphemy IMO.  And I am with you on Maroon 5. They are awful. Just awful.  And Adam Levine does nothing for me.

New random: two people at my level are quitting, which means there are 2 less sane people in the gazillion meetings I have to go to every week. Boo!

And since I worked all day Sunday, I've been a day ahead all week. I keep thinking it's Thursday, but it's not.  Could someone work on that please? Thanks.

I don't know if this is a random or a flameful. Originally my husband and my wills stipulated that his brother and sil would take the kids if we both die. Of course, they were aware of this. When I redid my will after my husband died I changed the guardian to my sister. I don't like confrontation, so I haven't mentioned this to my brother in law. My kids are teens so fingers crossed that I don't die in the next 6 years and it will be a moot point.

I got a call on the job! I filled out my CORI form & sent a copy of my pay stub. Hopefully that means I'll have a job offer soon!!

So H is switching jobs. Start date is 25th. Meanwhile he's trying to bring them up to speed at the old job. They're hoping to hire someone before he goes to replace him so he can do some training. He asked them yesterday if they have any prospects or leads from recruiters. The answer? "Well, there's an ad for it on craigslist." And they're serious. They're so screwed.

Yea they are never going to find a replacement. Yikes!
