tingelI've got a cold. My head hurts, my back hurts, my skin hurts, I'm coughing and it hurts and I'm feverish. Last night I went to bed around 9 pm (and couldn't sleep) and now I just got up at 6 am. I'm listless, I don't know what I want to do, but the thought of going back to bed makes me want to cry.
A friend of mine has this amazing ability to fall asleep instantly when she goes to bed. Not me. Sometimes it used to feel like I'm lying awake for hours. I just couldn't stop thinking. So I started listening to audio books in bed. By concentrating on the narration every other thought is shut up and I'm out like a light within about 10 minutes. (I know because I have to find the point in the narration where I fell asleep the next night). I used to listen to the Discworld novels. My collection is quite complete. But I have listened to each for about 3 or 4 times. So I thought it was time to try something else. At the moment (for the last week) I'm listening to Harry Potter. Somehow it's not as effective. I just can't fall asleep. And some IDIOT divided the mp3 tracks into 90 minutes parts! I can only fast forward on my mini stereo. STUPID THING! That is I can't rewind from one track to the one before. And of course I can go to a certain track on the disc but not to a specific point in time within a track. It's so annoying to fast forward to, say, minute 75. Takes forever!
Oh, and my coworker is pregnant and she's leaving for a few months after May. She's the one who does the payroll accounting. I'd always hoped to learn that and to take over if she's away. But our (new) boss doesn't want me trained for it. BASTARD! So last Friday my co-worker had a day off. And one of the controllers needed this report out of SAP and I didn't know how to do it (hey, nobody has taught me! What am I, a FREAKING genius?) And he looked at me as if I was stupid. I just PISSES me off!
I've got tickets for a Nightwish concert in March. I was going with a friend. I've asked her several times if she really could/wanted to make it before I bought the tickets. And now she tells me that she forgot she had emergency duty that days (she's a pharmacist). Let's just hope she finds a substitute! But right now, I don't think so. It would fit with just everything else.
I better shut up before I have A FIT!
