WaHo, Boo-Boos, and Gorilla Butts

AmandaS came by yesterday to return some DVD’s she had borrowed and to borrow the computer. She had a DVD from work that showed them all working on a 600lb gorilla. She got to stick her finger in its butt. Not to worry, she’s not a perv, she had to take its temperature….

Met up with Ember and Rah-Rah at the WaHo and as usual the hash browns were an adventure. Our server wrote my order down right, and I’m sure she called them right, but the grill person put the wrong hash browns on my plate so I got jalapeño peppers in mine instead of the onions I had ordered. Oh well, no big.

After the WaHo they both came out to my place and we just spent some time together. It felt good, even though we were all doing mostly separate things. Rah-Rah was downloading videos from her phone to the computer, Ember had her laptop and was browsing MySpace, I was switching between my laptop and a book depending on what else was going on. It was nice just having them here. And there was conversation back and forth but it’s not like we were all sitting around a fire trading stories and such.

I made a boo-boo yesterday when I said I had to go a full workweek without medication for the ADHD; I have to go TWO full weeks. I looked at the calendar wrong. I wouldn’t worry so much except if I’m going to start a new medication that’s going to alter (however mildly) my perception and behavior I’d really rather not have to adjust to that at work. Also, the stress that I was under before has not abated one bit. In fact I hear she’s gone even farther ‘round the twist and had one of the overnight managers scheduled for seventy-two hours this week. And we all know that getting out at the scheduled time is just not going to happen no matter how good a job we do.

I went through my contacts on my computer and cleaned some of them out. I figured I didn’t really need numbers, addresses, and e-mail addresses for people I haven’t heard a peep from in five or more years. It’s not like the phone or the computer was out of room or anything, it’s just a neatness thing.

It’s about 13:00 now, but I’m going to save this and post it later in case I’ve got anything else to say.

Nope, I’m done.
