Miserable Mondays

I'm tired...no I'm effin' exhausted...I made it through midterms okay...got As on them all...yay for being a geek. But I stayed up too late because I just wasn't tired...then had to get up and seriously had to force myself to even function this morning.

If it hadn't been for restarts starting today I would have called. Who am I kidding...as much as I loathe Mondays, it's payroll day and I can't leave folks hangin or run the risk that their hours are wrong. Don't let me fool you. My presence here doesn't make the world go round. Not many people would miss me. My boss could just call in and check the voicemail from her office in Chesapeake, Time sheets would still be e-mailed to the payroll specialist in Chesapeake...though no one would verify that the hours showing are correct, no one would give it a real second thought....

My eyes are on fire and all I can think about is how I want a nap. I want to go back home and curl up in the bed and sleep for the next nine days. No exaggeration there.

Tonight I have a group meeting though since the fuckers changed it from Wednesday...I shouldn't bitch I'm just so OVER IT ALL RIGHT NOW. I'M BURNED OUT. Senioritis perhaps.

Two of my restarts called out today...really how are you going to call out on your first day back to work? Too many mother fucking people just DON'T WANT TO WORK. They fail to realize that unemployment doesn't pay out if it's their fault they don't come to work...in addition, if they refuse a work assignment PEACE OUT to unemployment period.

It's so ridicuously hot in the warehouse. HOT AS BALLS i tell you...the air is still and it's so humid out there you have to cut a path with a knife just to get through. The heat index is supposed to be 110 today...which means that they may have to stop production depending on how hot it gets in there. Do the math...at 7 am it was already in the 90s, so humid it's difficult to breathe...add body heat, the potential for people to pass out in the containers they are loading/unloading, plus heat being generated from multiple pieces of warehouse equipment and conveyor belts....ugh....this is not going to be pretty.

And me, the genius behind it all, insists on wearing a t-shirt under my work polo (a polo which by the way just doesn't breathe AT ALL)....jeans because I was rushing and didn't have time to shave....can we say I'll be sweaty and crotchety by the end of the day....MISERABLE MONDAY for sure.

I started on the three small paintings I'm doing for my sister. I want them to be done by her shower so I can wrap them, write a sappy note on the back of each and have her open them then. I decided upon a sea turtle, a sea horse, and a whale.... the problem comes into play that I will want to do that stuff instead of homework this week so I'll probably be procrastinating.

The upstairs is destroyed and disgusting and needs to be dusted and vacuumed.

The fan in the attic is broke which means that the upstairs gets and stays super fucking hot because since the attic is half the size of the upstairs and wraps around since no heat is being sucked out...it's leaking into the living area and making it miserable. Gotta call grandma so she can call someone. LIKE YESTERDAY.

I still haven't done the windows of Gmas house which is bad because she already paid me for it...

I hate Mondays....one more week and a couple of days to go before I'm living it large down at the beach....YAY AH!
