Long weekend

It is the Canada Day long weekend. Let the celebrations begin. I get 3 days off of work. Better yet, Nick does too. We actually get to spend 3 whole days together. Wow. It hasn't happened in so long that I've kind of been missing Nick.

Otherwise there isn't much to tell. I am sick of the bra store, would love to get a desk job again, and can't wait for school to start. I really am sick of the bra store. Dawn is not the most pleasant person in the world to work for. She is very critical and everybody knows that I take criticism very personally. I'm an admitted perfectionist. I know that I only really have two months there and then I'm back in school. I'm going to tough it out. Then I'm only going to work one day a week in the fall. And if she doesn't want me to work one day there, I'll work one day somewhere else. The shoppers on the corner is always hiring.

Today though, on happier thoughts, is shopping with my girls and tomorrow we're going to the horse track. Good times

Be Careful What You Eat

I ate something bad. I'm not sure what it was, but it was bad. It wasn't something obvious like when Nick ate the beer foam (yes, he ate foam that was coming out the top of a carboy; Please read: 100% bacteria) but it had nearly the same effect.

It kept me home yesterday. It kept me laying on the couch for the whole of yesterday. If I sat or stood, gravity was working against me and I was making a run for the washroom. The worst part was that my stomach was all cramped up. The last time I felt something like that is when I had my appendix out. So on top of everything else, that feeling made me feel just a little bit panicky.

Today I'm feeling better but still didn't go to work. If it was a desk job, I would have toughed it out. But it's a standing job and I was feeling way to weak. In fact, I've had a 5.5 hour nap after a solid night of sleep and after only being up again for an hour, I could go back to bed. Yesterday was rough.

But mostly: YUCK!!!
