NoJoMo Day 5

I may work tonight.  Which I don’t really want to but I do need the hours.  I got a text asking me if I could come in.  I responded saying no but then changed my mind and offered to leave later if they still needed the hours covered.  If I don’t hear back then oh well.  I can say that I did offer at least.  And if I do work then I will leave about 10:30pm when I get off.  If I don’t then I’m leaving about 5-6pm.  I was hoping not to drive after it got (pause for incoming text)  Not working tonight, they got another girl to cover.  So yay for that at least.  But at the same time now I’m kind of wishing I had just said yes because it would have been 6 hours more than I had and on my check that’s about $50 more.  But really it’s not like that $50 would make or break me I think.  *sigh*  I do really want to get to Uni tonight.  I’m hanging out with Jayson while Quinn is in his frat meeting then we’re going to dinner.  Then tomorrow I will be hanging out with Little and Irish probably while Quinn is busy.  Then Saturday will be the busy day between the ceremony, luncheon and then fall ball (still haven’t decided if I’m going or not and I need to so I know whether or not to pack my dress and shoes).  I don’t think I will go for a few reasons:

1) It’s not my last fall ball, though it would be my first since we weren’t allowed to have one my pledge semester due to someone spiking the punch at a previous event.
2) It’s $25 at the door to get in, $25 that I could better spend and that’s just for me.  If Quinn goes it will be $50 at the door.
3) Quinn might not be able to go.  His fraternity was asked at the last minute to go to another chapter and help out on Saturday and he doesn’t know yet when he’s getting back, if he is even getting back on Saturday (I’m sure they will but how late will it be?) so he might not go and I don’t want to go date-less.  I did that at Spring formal and while I had an okay time, it was kind of awkward to sit on the sidelines half the time because I didn’t have a dance partner for the couple dances which were uncomfortably frequent.
4) There is an anti-ball (lol) kind of party being thrown by a sister and alum that will be a Get pretty, Get shitty party.  It’s free to attend and BYOB so I’d only spend as much as I want to on alcohol and that’s it.  And I’d still get to look a little pretty at least and this way I can.  And I don’t have to worry about being date-less if I have to be.

Other than that though, very much looking forward to the weekend.  I think.

Not 100% sure because I managed to tweak my back so badly that it’s like I’m back where I was a year ago, totally unable to bend at the waist because when I move I get such extreme pain in my back.  It was fine until last night when somehow I did something at work.  I remember hopping off a counter and that’s when the pain started.  I don’t know how hopping off a low counter did anything but it did.  I’m going to try and take it easy and just do my stretches like my chiropractor taught me years ago and hope that it goes away.  Obviously this means no more running for me indefinitely.  Pray for me that this doesn’t last long.
