2000-08-18 - 10:13pm� Quote of the Day: --Xander, "Where the Wild Things Are" Buffy the Vampire Slayer And mean. Old people are also mean. Okay, not all of them. Most of the ones I talked to today were crazy and/or mean though. It's a good thing that I am only dealing with the eldery over the phone. I can pretty much control myself and manage to be patient for the length of a phone call, but that's about it. I now look upon people who work with the eldery with a whole new respect. I certainly couldn't ever do it. Song Lyrics of the Day: "I can't close my eyes. I'm seeing a tunnel at the end of all these lights." I'm having one of those days, where I feel like I'm in a big rut, and I'm not getting anywhere. And I don't really mean that on a grand, depressing scale of "why isn't my life going anywhere?" No, it's more immediate than that. It's a "when am I going to get some more time for myself" feeling. I am really glad that today is Friday so that I get a break from the routine for a couple of days. But... a couple of days doesn't seem like long enough when I know that after Sunday I have to go in and do it all again for another five days. I'm hoping that this is just first week back to work syndrome... taking that week and a half off was really nice, but it's made it hard to get into this job. Despite my whining about the mean old people, I do like this job. But I don't like it as much as I like sleeping in, and watching Magnum PI at 11 am, and covering things with Fimo, and getting to wear my comfy clothes... Unpleasant Feeling of the Day: Today I went for a walk on my lunch hour. I thought I was looking good. I felt like I was looking good. I had a whole picture of myself conjured up in my mind: calm, collected, graceful, stylish, perhaps even a little glamourous. Then I happened to catch a glimpse of my reflection. What a crushing blow. I had to do a double take before it sunk in that yes, I was in fact looking at myself. The short chubby legs, the hair sticking out strangly on one side, the skirt hiked up slightly higher on one side than the other... I hate those moments of realization. Amusing Website of the Day: Brunching Shuttlecocks: Rules For My Apartment Complex These could be the rules for my apartment complex... except for the one about the pool. My building isn't good enough to have a pool, unless I count the times when the storm drain behind the builing backs up and the parking lot floods. (In case you're wondering, I don't count those times.)
