Be reasonable, Amanda.

You aren’t depressed and you aren’t sad.  Your hormones just want you to think you are.

The power went out across most of the town yesterday, I guess.  Our power didn’t go, but all of campus and a lot of the shops in town, along with some of the nearby residences including Pat’s house did.  Because of this, Nathan came home from Resnet early, because there really wasn’t much to do as far as fixing computers goes with no power.  We ended up going shopping for a few things and I got 2 pairs of shorts and a skirt, since I’ve been dying these last few days from the heat.

Our internet also went out yesterday, and poor Nathan almost died.  By the end of the night we ended up going to Perkins to feed me and he brought is laptop so he could catch up with the world.  Remind me never to take him camping or anything like that – he didn’t even make it 8 hours.

I haven’t really minded how much I’ve been working lately.  I’ve been scheudled quite a bit, and worked 9 days straight before having yesterday off (although I gave that shift to someone who wanted it, I was supposed to work 12 straight).  It’s been keeping me busy, which is nice, but my days off are inconvenient when I do get them, so any visits I was hoping to make to Menomonie are kinda shot unless I ask off specifically for them – which I kinda can’t do, what with Vicki’s wedding coming up and the 2 days I magically got off for the 4th of July and that sort of thing.

I work overnight tomorrow night, which sucks, because if I get even close to the right amount of sleep, there’s no way I’ll be able to drive down to Milwaukee in time for Vicki’s bridal shower, and if I DO wake up in time to make the drive, I’ll be driving on like… 2 hours of sleep.  So I don’t think I’m gonna make it.  Pat also said he might want to look at houses on Sunday again (dear God I hope it’s not as hot as it was Tuesday when we looked at houses), so that also really prevents me from making that 2 hour trip.

I need to keep taking all of these shifts that Adam gives me too, because I absolutely have to get off for all of the days I’ve asked for.  Adam seems to really love me, which is great cause I need him to.  However, I need to remember that I’m not any more devoted to my job than a few other people so I still really shouldn’t expect any special treatment, and we ARE super swamped right now.  I hope we find some new people soon.

I feel like I haven’t done anything yet today, and it’s 1 o’clock.  I need to DO SOMETHING.
