Just a Ramble

I must stop lurking through OD. I must get an update written! Just for the heck of it because I certainly do not have much to write about.

I made it through one more Quarterly Meetings Session and I still have my job! Woo hoo!

What did I learn from this session that I did not know before? Nothing! Not meaning that I am a know-it-all I just mean that sometimes these meetings are pretty lame.

I wanted to smack JT ~ he is the newest site manager for the company. He manages a site on the western half of the state. He must like the sound of his own voice but the only time he ever pipes up is after someone has already said what he is babbling about! I wanted to scream just shut the fuck up we have already discussed this. Mr. Big pretty much put him in his place. It wasn’t a major issue because I don’t even remember what it was we were discussing.

I had it figured out Monday night that I would be keeping my job. I was emptying ashtrays, clearing empty bottles, cans, glasses etc. from the blackjack tables (basically doing the bar servers job) when Mrs. Big started doing the bump with me. Remember the dance from the 70’s? Yeah she started bumping hips with me. I thought right then and there ~ you do not act like that if you don’t like that person. So I was confident that I made it once again.

Tuesday during the meetings Mrs. Big would nod off. She was doing the head-bobbing thing. She finally got up and left the meeting ~ I think that she went to her office and took a nap.

When the meeting was over she came back into the meeting room. She did not look well so I asked her if she was feeling okay. She said no. Then she went on to tell me that she has just gotten a call from her niece.

Mrs. Big needs a kidney transplant and this niece practically begged to donate a kidney six months ago. Now she won’t even test to see if she would be a match. Mr. Big has been tested and they plan on him donating. Plus they have two others that are going to be tested.

This morning Mrs. Big was feeling better and she was done being angry.

I was so glad when the meeting finally ended today. I was bored, sleepy, and starting to feel ill. I went to the site to drop off bonus checks, stopped at the grocery store to pick up a quick and easy meal for the kids, and came home.

I got the fish sticks and French fries in the oven and bit the dust. I was down for the count! I asked the girls if they could watch the stuff in the oven and they were okay with that. Which was a good thing because if they couldn’t it would have been there until Dick got home. I am not even sure when that was. Some how I got my pillows and my quilt but I stayed on the floor until I couldn’t stand the seams of my jeans digging into my hips anymore. That was around midnight and I have been up since but now I am going back to sleep. I feel better but not actually up to par. I had some yogurt so maybe that will blast the bug that is rampaging. I hope that I am the end of the line and it leaves my house.
