| Yesterday was Aweful |
[Dec. 27th, 2009|03:56 pm] |
Yesterday wasn't a happy day for me at all. It was at first. I woke up after a goooooood long sleep and even made breakfast (so michael woulnd't burn the house down).
The unhappy part started around 11. It's saturday. I usually go and pick up my schedule at around lunch time on Saturday. The schedule is made Friday, and the week he schedules is Sunday so I have to pick it up Saturday. I didn't work, so I had plans for the day. Mostly errands. Well that all changed cause the Store manager scheduled me in the day before christmas (after the schedule was made) and didn't bother to let me know about it. The other manager told me after I said I wasnt working. That annoyed me, but okay, whatever... I need money and hours so it's fine.
I rant a little to michael about it... all is well. I'm happy again. I need hours and money so no problem! I get ready for work, and head off to work a couple hours later. I was scheduled a 7 hour shift. So I was prepared for a long hawl. I get to work and see everyone... Jimmy is there.. he's holarious, James is there... even though he's cranky pants, he's fun to work with for some reason (he's never cranky AT anyone... it's just how he is)... and Phil was there... the store manager. Well before I clock in I ask for the keys to put my stuff away and come out and i'm excited to tell phil that avatar was actually good. When I said this he said "you know, really, right now, i don't really care. I'm sorry, but i just don't give a crap" Something to those effects. :( It's an instant moral killer to have my happy balloon popped before I even clock into a shift I techniqually didn't have to go to cause I wasn't informed what-so-ever. :(
That wasn't all. Yeah it's busy. Crazy busy. Okay He's in a bad mood cause it's busy. The GA that's there is on the register, I'm on the floor. Okay fine. When he leaves i'll take register. No. The store manager takes register (which i find out later that he's not supposed to be one register at all) and when the other GA comes in, he gives the register to him. He is soooooo slow. :( I've had more experience with the register. I WAS THE ONE WHO ASKED PHIL WHY HE DIDN'T TEACH ANY OTHER GA"S!! And now he gets a register over me? why? Our jobs are to be on the floor asking people if they need help and cleaning the place up, but I was top dawg before I found out I was miscarrying. ;_; Everythings gone down hill sense then at work for some reason. I know it's a huge hastle for my boss that i'm going through something pretty difficult, but jeez. I feel sorta demoted.
Anyway. So 3 hours into work James is back from his lunch and it's my turn. yay a lunch. I was hungry and tired. Well he tells me to clock out and take a lunch after Jame's transaction and it was taking longer then usual. Plus he was doing something I had never seen so I was watching so i could learn, and I get yelled at to go out on the floor in the mean time and ask people if they need help. Well ... fine... :x So after another 5 or 10 minutes I come back and catch james inbtwn people and say "clock out now?" and he said "yeah yeah..." then Phill sorta yells it...with anger and hate and fire... "YOU HAVE 30 MINUTES!" I was like... well yeah i know... i'm not retarded. o_O So i said "I know" with a smile on my face and left. I tried really hard to keep a positive attitude... I tried REALLY HARD, but jeez. I had questions that needed answers and I didn't know, but I did NOT want to ask Phil at all. How can I ask someone a question I don't know the answer to if my head is going to be bit off :( So instead of answering questions I didn't know, I probably lost the store a ton of buisness by telling people to just go ahead and wait in line to ask the guys at the register. -_-
So when Phil disappears (his shift was over and he was GONE) I feel a huge weight lift off my shoulder. ;_; I was still annoyed and in a bad mood, but I definatly felt better.
Now the crappiness didn't end there. Phil left while the GA (thomas) who was on the register (and slow) was on a lunch, so I had the register. Ah yes. Glorious register. I'm good at selling systems and expensive things :3 I was happy and where I felt I was supposed to be. Well when thomas gets back, he clocks in and tells me after a certain transaction to get off his register o_o. WTF? really? YOURS?!?! So when I got off I was pissed at him. I don't like to be pissed at him, he's a really nice guy. Well, sense phil was gone I decided to clean the mess on the back shelf that had been there the whole time I was (and bothering the shit out of me) and Thomas whispers in my ear "James told me to kick you off... " I was like "oh thank god... i didn't want to be angry at you!" <- actually said this. So now I was angry at James. WHy would he tell him to kick me off? I'm faster, more knowledgable, and more vocal and people friendly. I've had angry people come up to my line and thank god they picked my line cause they would have left angry if they were on james's register... and they wouldn't leave angry with me there. If we didn't have anything i'd feel bad and just as disappointed (which relates to people more then, "no sorry we're out, NEXT!")
Well anyway... James, Thomas and I got into conversations about the mess and phil, and anger... and phil is obviously the kind of guy who takes out his frustration on others... and James tried not to (usually doesn't) but one thing he said kind of hurt. He said "i hate everyone..." we laughed... and then he said "except you thomas"... :x And i said "what about me" and he said "Yes i hate you." *sigh* Oh well not like my day had been so great anyway.
I still tried to leave on a good note though. James wanted a refill on his drink and he can't go get it himself. He's the only manager there and can't leave the store. So I said "i'll go get it if you stop hating me" I smiled with a huge grin on my face. He *sighed* and said "do we have to do this now?" ... I said "yes... " And he said "fine... i don't hate you!" VICTORY FOR ME... but i still think he hates me. or at least he thinks i'm annoying. I guess I can live with that.
--------------------
Today was a new day though. But I still got some news that pissed me off. Apparently michael forgot to mention that he might have to work on New Years Day. I'm boiling with anger. I told him that if he does have to work I will break shit. I'm going to clean the house, then mess it all up. I'm not happy. The whole reason I picked this week instead of christmas eve and christmas to go to austin was because I'd get an extra day or so in austin. I'd get to hang out with becky without her requesting off. I'd get to hang out more iwth my family, and I'd get to see blake and andrea on saturday. But if he works on new years... I get to MISS hanging out with becky... and spending the new year with my parents. If he had mentioned this before when I was contemplating which weekend... I would have probably have gone to austin on christmas. BUT NO. He mentions this now. Today. I'm not happy.
Thanks to this stupid baby and this stupid miscarriage, i've been kind of demoted at work, my horomones make me crazy hungry... so i'm gaining weight, and my holiday has pretty much been ruined.
Thanks mother nature. Your an asshole. |

| Boss hates me...? |
[Dec. 26th, 2009|01:25 pm] |
He has too. Cause I was standing right there when he was making the schedule and he asked me if I was leaving for austin new years eve or not... I told him yes. Also told him that if he really needs me to work I can work the morning. So what does he do. He schedules me from noon to close. >:X So we wont be leaving for Austin till around 6:45-7:00 which means we will be arriving probably RIGHT before the New Year :( I'm so bummed and annoyed. He also didn't schedule me for today... then changed it without telling me he changed it...and now I am working today o_O It's okay though. I need the money, but why can't he give me the hours on the days I CAN work. I mean... he didn't schedule me for mon-wed. at all. What is his problem arg.
Oh well. I get to work with Alex and James I think. They are both fun to work with. Jimmy might be working there too... he's holarious and always in a good mood.
So tomorrow I've got alot of cleaning to do. Which is alright. Well it's alright right now cause that's what I wanted and was going to do today. *sigh* |

Avatar was pretty amazing. I went in expecting a crappy movie cause the previews didn't really give it justice, but everyone was raving about it, so I figured i'd give it a shot. It reminded me the first Hulk movie (the previews).
I like how my mom's friend described it though. Dances with Wolves in Space. xP Good though. |

[Dec. 24th, 2009|08:05 am] |
No not the company. IT's super windy and snowing like crazy and the sun is already up. Weird. :3 It looks like a tiny blizzard. But this is texas right? blizzard? what? xD
Camera is out of battery power... NOOOooooo. I got a nice video of indy out on the padio tho. His fur is covered in light and fluffy snow, and sense his fur is long and black, it just sits there for a long time xD So funny!
Happy Birthday to Michael! ! !
I got him a recliner that we'll get some time after christmas. :3 Im also baking him a devil's chocolate cake with vanilla frosting (and I have vanilla icecream yum). For dinner I'm making Filet mignon with some Steamed Artichokes and cheesy rice and broccoli. :3

| Early Morning... |
[Dec. 23rd, 2009|07:16 am] |
WHYYYyyyyy does Game Stop have to open so early today =_=
I made a smoothie and i'm going to go pick up donuts for james (whos working early with me today). Waking up early to work is a million times worse then waking up early on your own xP |
|
|
| Smoothies |
[Dec. 21st, 2009|08:10 am] |
I made smoothies for breakfast. Michael is like "oh great..." :p I think it's cause my smoothies are pretty much mashed up fruit. xP I don't make them very sweet. But this time I put some icecream and flavoured yogurt instead of plain so it's sweeter then normal (but not like a smoothie shop smoothy)<- don't usually like those.
So for juice i used OJ and some of that Natural fruit blend juice that has vitamins in it. I used a mixed berry one. :3 So frozen Peaches, Frozen blueberries, a half a banana, one thing of peach yogurt, about 1/3 of a container of the small mixed berry stuff, One spoonful of Vanilla icecream, and some OJ until all blends together. Keep it thicker then thinner (the thicker the smoothie the better :3). I love it. ^_^ And it's super healthy. Yum. |

First Thing:
t(o_ot) you LJ for that stupid Best Buy pop up that doesn't allow you to close out of immediatly (you have like 5 seconds to WAIT to close the window >:X)
Okay so I requested like three different things from my boss. First this was to have christmas eve off cause it's my husband's b-day. He said that shouldn't be a problem but if he does schedule me it'll be in the morning (that's fine). Second request was to have christmas weekend off so i can visit family. he said no because the day after christmas is THE busiest day of the year. Then I asked if i could have the week before... or even a few days before. No. Because thats the busiest time for game stop. Okay. :x Well then i'll schedule a late christmas new years weekend. I asked if that's alright. Okay it's alright. Yes!
So i'm expecting to work... and work at least 15 hours. That's reasonable for a seasonal. that'd be great!. No. I get 8 hours, and I'm not even scheduled on the day after christmas. what's up with this. You deny me it cause it's a busy day and i'll be working it, then DON'T schedule me for it. WTF.
Now in his defense.. I just got out of surgery and he's probably spareing me the stress on my body by giving me so few hours, PLUS i've been the biggest drauma in the store because of this pregnancy rollercoaster and as understanding as he is about it (and has to be about it) it's still probably VERY annoying. But come on. D:| I need work. I need hours, I need money.
I'm still annoyed.
Plus the guy whom took a shift for me once (because I was really ill) is now taking all the hours I used to get. :( I did ask why he wasn't scheduled at all, so I did dig my own grave. Heaven forbid i'm a nice person and was curious ;_;
============
Anywho. So we're still going there new years weekend even though we could tech. be there for christmas now. But it'd be better for me and everyone. We'll get there New Years eve evening. Spend some time with family. New years day I'll spend lunch with becky. Then in the afternoon/evening spend some more time with family. Then on Saturday I'll go hang out with blake and andrea at ikkicon (i'm not paying for shit though... so I hope they don't mind that i'm not going into any of the events or anything :x)... and if i can squeeze some time in with terra (if she is in town) then i'll do that saturday evening. If not with terra (in case she's out of town) then i'll say hello to alan and his family. I'll have to see them at some point anyway. Sunday we'll leave. |

MMMmm Miso Soup. Makes me wanna make Sushi. I think maybe I'll make some Sushi later in the week. I have all the stuff but the insides. So some crab meat, cucumbers and avacadoes and I'm set. :3 I make cheap sushi xP I don't even use Sushi rice when I make at home for me and michael. It's to expensive and regular rice mixed with the sugar and vinegar keeps the same. So yay for cheap :p
I do want to learn how to make that yummy asian mayonase. That orange sweet stuff they put on some sushi. mmm that'd be nice to know. And even the dragon roll sauce would be nice to know too. :3 I havn't made Rice balls in forever too. But no one here really appreciates it. If i make it for the shop they'll just think i'm weird.

ARG. Rachel is getting me a little something. :( I feel bad cause I didn't get her anything. So now i'm going to go buy her a little something. She said my something is little too. Maybe i'll get her some candles or something. I dunno D:
Its okay though I love getting gifts for people xP and shopping around for people. Sadly I prefer to shop for other people then myself. I should really work on that cause I need to shop for myself, but oh well.
So Last night the backpain and cramping got to a high of "OMG WHY ARG" And all night it'd go off an on. More menstral type cramping then back pain cramping though. This morning I feel fine (so I wish I was working in the morning instead of late tonight), but we'll see. This gives me the opportunity to take my mega painkillers during the day and still work later without feeling drowsey and out of it. I wish it'd be painful at the beginning and not the 2 days after the fact :( Going on the third day now. Bleh.
======
Okay I had the most amazing dream ever. It's the first dream that can actually be morphed into a decent comic or book too. Usually my "cool" dreams are a bit out there, but this one was amazing, and close to a solid plot. Romantic, adventurous, action packed, definatly fantasy... :D just AWESOME. |

Omgosh maybe this is why they prescribed mega pain killers. :( These lower back pains are killing me.
They said it's a form of cramping, but this is aweful. I feel like my lower back was hit with a bat.
*debating on taking mega painkillers :x* |

Well I bought michael's recliner for his b-day. 370 dollars at Ashley's Furniture. We got a pretty good deal on it. Saved like 60 bucks. It's suuuuuuper comfortable and michael reallllly wants one. Although he wants one for his computer not for comfort and TV watching >.<, but whatever. It's an off white colour. Thank goodness Indy doesn't pee on things anymore, or that colour would have been the worst pick. It didn't come in any other colours though. That's fine though :3 The couch I want will match it so I'm not toooo angry. Ashley has the couch I want too. It's a thousand dollars, but soooooo worth it. It fits in any small apartment living space and it's super comfortable. PLUS when you take the pillows off it can be used as a bed. There are styles like it that actually transform into beds, but sense I can only find those online and can't test thier comfort level... there out. :p So when michael deploys we'll be making more money while he's gone, plus i'll be working (hopefully) so I can save a whole bunch and get alot of the things we've been wanting. By we, I mean mostly me. I get the little things I want cause they wont break the bank... he gets all the expensive things he wants. So I think it's my turn. I did get a new computer, but at this point, his expensiveness has added up to my new computer. :P
From not till when he deploys we will be busy.
January, trip to Austin for late Christmas
Feb. Trip to austin for becky's bridal shin dig (which to me is silly personally)
April or May, Becky's Wedding. For some reason I'm brain farting and she just told me too. Hrm..
June, trip to Idaho and Washington for a month to visit michael's family before he deploys...
July, lots of quality time with michael before he leaves.
Now may not seem like alot, but it really is cause each trip to austin is 100 dollars at least MORE concidering they are for becky and her wedding which is costing me a fortune. And the trip to Idaho will cost us about 700+ dollars. I'm saving 1k of our tax return for the trip just in case. His Uncle is like "don't worry once you get here, not a dime will be spent" buuuuut we'll have a rental car for a while (maybe) and then there is gas, and all that jazz. :/ yeah. Who knows. PLUS finding a place for our dog... unless we bring him, then it'll cost us even more money to bring him. I dunno, maybe my parents will keep him, which means we'd need to drive to austin. Bleh bleh bleh.
Big trip planning is a pain. |

|
| I should do some work.. |
[Dec. 18th, 2009|08:27 am] |
I need to do some things today. But I also need to take it easy. I might have michael accompany me. I need to get some of those flat rate boxes and send some gifts. -_- I've had rachel's b-day gift forever and becky's too, but becky will get hers when we visit New Years Eve. Rachel's is light so it shouldn't cost me a fortune.
I also need to go buy Dad's gift. Getting him The Hangover on blue ray. Then some wrapping paper. I didn't get many people things. Just family and michael this year. :( Not even cards. I'm sorry friends, but I was saving all the money for a kid and now it's kind of late to buy cards, address them and send them (imo) if i had them ready to go, maybe, but I don't. :x So Sorry. Just know that I wish you all a merry christmas :3
Michael's gift this year is a bit expensive, but he really wants one and i'm sacrificing my Art Tablet money to get it for him and it's super cheap this time of the year. So yeah. Going to go ahead and buy that today. A reclyner. Some places the nice ones are around 200 dollars and I wont spend more then 300. So yeah. By the end of January I should be able to afford an Art Tablet anyway.
Things to do. Things to do. |

| I'm Alive! |
[Dec. 17th, 2009|07:49 am] |
So the procedure went well. They said it was uneventful (thankgoodness) I went under laughing my ass off for some reason o_O and woke up balling my eyes out.
I'm apparently doing shockingly well so far. They moved me from recovery to the patient waiting area so I can see my husband, and that made me feel super sick (anestetics). But they gave me alchohol pads and waved them in front of my nose then set it on my nose. That stuff is a miracle. I'm buying alchohol wipes from now on. After that they expected me to feel that way everytime I got up for the rest of the day, but after that one moment I was fine. I got up to pee fine, and I wanted to walk out, but they insisted they wheel me out xP
So we got home, michael layed me down and got me my drink and crackers and I started to draw. I wanted to draw for some reason. Something random. But I wanted to colour it like i've never done before. It came out beautiful in my opinion. Michael saw it and was like "oh wow... nice dawn!" :3
So anywho. I'm going to rest some more today. keep the activity to a minimum. That means sitting up in a chair too. So toodles for now. |

| Change |
[Dec. 16th, 2009|07:52 am] |
|
They changed the time to noon instead of 2:30 for the procedure so i gotta be there at 10 instead of 1:30. sooooooo I might have an afternoon to feel sick from the anestetic. xD
Which reminds me. I need to go buy my dad's christmas gift, and get some Boxes from the post office for rachel's birthday present that I should have sent a long time ago. |

| Tomorrow is my Surgery |
[Dec. 15th, 2009|05:48 pm] |
I'll be at the hospital for 4+ hours.
Risks of Surgery:
Injury to Colon, Uterus, Bladder (which will be fixed if it happens)
Bleeding out (which I have a wrist band that tells them there is blood set aside just for me in case it happens)
Infection (caused afterwards cause of a peice left behind)
Death (from anestetic)
Sickness (after surgery cause of anestetic <- common)
Doc said the highest risk is death from the anestetic which is super rare and she's been doing these things for years so I feel a little nervous about the procedure itself, but fine for the most part.
So just in case my body is like "see ya" when i'm put under >.<
I love everyone. :3
And michael gets all my stuff. xP (light humor not ment to be offensive. o_o) |
