Only when there are things to b!tch about…
Dear Diary;
I’ve come to realize that most people (maybe not most… let’s say.. 30%) come here to bitch and whine about something- myself included. I mean really though, when you come to write, do you write about all the great things that are going on, or do you write about all the shit that you’re dealing with? I know that I tend to write about the shit. Maybe that’s why I haven’t been writing in here very much lately.
I can’t really complain. I mean, I could if I wanted to (I’m sure I could dig up something to complain about), but I don’t feel the need to most of the time. For once, I actually feel like things are kind of going okay in my life. I have a job that pays way above minimum wage and that I actually quite like (except Friday mornings) and I have a new car. My house is warm, my family is healthy and my friends are a phone call away. This is where I knock on wood… but things really are going smoothly.
*shrug*
general updates:
♥ Mom’s finger looks a bit better every day. For those who are still shaking their heads and wondering what I’m talking about (I wrote about this before Christmas) my mom got her hand stuck in a conveyor belt at work and her fingers were mangled. He had to get the tip of her middle finger on her left hand removed (as in, cut off). The other fingers are healing nicely, but she can’t bend her index, middle or ring fingers and probably won’t be able to for months and months. She recently got her bandages off and I’ve been massaging her hand and fingers with bio oil.
♥ The new director of Davern phoned me this morning (but I missed her call). I’m assuming that’s a great sign and that she hasn’t hired a new Wellness Coordinator yet, otherwise she probably would’ve avoided me for a while. She’s at a conference all this week, but she gave me her cell number so I’ll probably call her tomorrow and at least leave a message. If I can work out the Friday morning thing, I’ll go back for sure. It’s nice to be able to go back and still have the comfort of a job in the fall. I finally get the choice to go back because I want to and I can- and not because I don’t have anything else and want it as a back-up.
♥ Molly is snoring. She’s laying in front of the fire place (which is going because it’s freeeeeezing outside) with her feet in the air. Bless her little stinking heart. I think Boots is on my backpack in my closet.
♥ Mauler is going to be on Live with Regis and Kelly tomorrow morning. He won that ‘men of radio’ contest to co-host with Kelly (the bitch.. I hate her) while Regis is away. I NEVER watch that show, but I’m going to tune in to see him. Mauler is one of the hosts of the Morning Hot Tub on Hot 89.9 in Ottawa. It’s the station I always listen to, so it’s kind of cool that he made the top 5. If you catch it, that’s the voice I wake up to in the morning!
♥ My eyes are drooping. It’s bed time.
I think the reason we write about things that are bothering us is that it feels better afterwards…it’s like a form of therapy–cheap therapy. And here on OD, it’s always nice to have your friends write you their take on your woes. At least, that’s why *I* tend to write more when I am upset. Although lately, I’m too frickin’ busy to write anything at all…

My grandpa had his fingers caught in a belt at work back in the early 60’s. They amputated all 4 fingers at the bottom knuckle – he used to think it was hilarious to “surprise” people with his lack of fingers when he first met them and shook their hand. Does you mom have to do any type of rehabilitation for her hand?

I hated Kathie Lee, but Kelly is immeasurably more annoying.
