I wanna give a huge shoutout to mai peeps...without them i'd be legally crazy by now.

I've had the month from hell because of a combination of work and school and I heart my friends for being so very patient with me being snippy. My frustrations aren't even with my job its with the ONE idiot reviewer I have. Liar....he's a LIAR!!! A grown up professional who should be man enough to say ummmm....i don't know but instead he's a damn dirty nasty coffee breath bad cologne wearing liar! GRRRR....grow up dude and hop on the focused boat. Its crunch time, don't blame your fuck ups on me.

So this bastard liar man has just pushed me over the edge and I've started getting snarky at my friends...but they still love me. Today when I was asked if I had something...instead of a polite "no, should I have" my reply was..."NO I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT IS AND I DONT CARE RIGHT NOW..." BLAAARRRGH bitch alert. But not 5 minutes later I see my sweet smiling friends acting like nothing happened. I, duh, apologized and explained I wasn't mad at them just frustrated with my situation.

I loves my BFF for doing the riverdance fingers for no apparent reason and having surgeries on chocolates today. Mmmmmm December Crack with alcohol....good stuff. Thank you miss HMG for randomly checking up on me, even if its only to nom nom on some jelly beans...you so know what I'm going through....

My favorite reaction to the frustration and my snarky attitude with the idiot reviewer I have was from Boobah who reminded me that "frowns make wrinkles..." So true and I don't want to be wrinkled and frustrated that would just piss me off!

YARF and my day didn't end any better. So there I am carpooling, trying to save the environment ( no train, can't handle the commoners today...) and the damn parking garage was backed up. SERIOUSLY....who does this! I guess there was so much damn road construction no one could go anywhere. So in the middle of the not going anywhere I found a radio station playing Y.M.C.A.!!!! Duh...you hear the song you have to dance. So down go the windows and up goes the volume and soon I had all the previously frustrated and pissed commuters in hysterics. I even did the hand pumping typical Village People dance in between the chorus. It was great, I was proud of myself even if I did embarrass the other people in the car....

Take a DEEEEEP BREATH.....

...and exhale.... I just got back from a massage and when the therapist, Janice, stretched out my neck and said take a deep breath and then exhale...i swear i almost cried.

I just got done with my most stressing week ever and I still don't know how I survived. I finished my second semester back in school... WOOHOO...with the turning in of my final last night. Wow I just don't know how I did it when I was earning my bachelors.

My schedule for the past 4 months:
I get up before the sun, commute for a wee more than an hour, work for up to 9 hours, commute back, pay attention to my husband, study or work out or both and then sleep and UP all over again less than 7 hours later. What the hell am I thinking with this schedule no wonder I'm so GD tired.



Soooo yea back to this semester....I'm so glad I'm done. I hate that there is always one real prick of a professor who is so hardcore about everything he just doesn't realize how crappy he really is. This guy actually critiqued the fonts we used in our paper. FONT!!! Who cares!!! No self respecting business person is going to say this proposal is crap because he used Arial and not Times New Roman. ASSHOLE!!! Has reality so escaped you, are you so fed up and bored with life you have to take a point off for a FONT!!! Grrr....well at least that is dead and out of the way.

The other professor was AWESOME...he didn't care what font we used. He was also smart enough to give us a group paper. This is an extremely smart idea for anyone who is a professional taking an online class. You don't have to focus on a huge amount of information and if you don't want to put it into a decent format, don't volunteer for the task. TA DA...stress removed.

On a lighter note, 'ish, the trains got screwed up earlier this week...Monday or Tuesday....somebody jumped in front of a freight train so CSX shut the tracks down. OK that part sucked but I found my new heroin ( like female hero not the drug). So I'm on the DC metro, and its 6:45am, all commuters and third shifters who want to get home. I'm sitting next to a very well dressed normal smelling business man so i hunker down for my 1 hour ride on the red line when, I think it was at Bethesda, a small Asian woman in sweats, sneakers, a fluorescent yellow baseball hat carrying a tote bag and a walking cane boards the train.

I love her already for the hat. She's old she needs to sit as soon as possible so she shuffles over to the designated senior/handicap seats where a business man and his overnight sized bag are sitting. Since the bag is blocking an entire seat, she doesn't say please move the bag like a normal person...she take her cane and begins to BEAT THE BAG until this guy moves it. I LOVE THIS WOMAN! She's not taking no shit from no one. And the look on the mans face was priceless. For 2 seconds he wanted to argue with this woman for beating the bag and then he realized um no she's 200 years old i'm going to lose this arguement.


Final thought for Friday night...If you are riding the DC Metro during commuting hours, do not think its OK to take an entire seat for luggage, it will get beat up!

I fold...

I'm done I give up I fold. Work. School. Training. Lack of Sleep. I GIVE UP!!!

I've done nothing but bust my ass for the past 4 weeks on some damn project and this fool has the audacity to call me out and start saying shit that i'm not doing my job. OH I DON'T THINK SO!!! Overtime, Saturdays and generally not eating throughout the day just so you can look at me and say sorry i'm not ready to review this I dont have my data together. SCREW YOU!! Now you say I didn't do the file in time....oh seriously.

On top of this bullshit its finals time. Yes I'm in Graduate school and no its not fun. Of course I'm not doing this because I'm interested I'm doing this because I want to be in charge of the village idiots one day. Its Karma baby. One day after all this lack of sleep and lack of paying attention to my husband I'll be a better more smarterer person and you know what thats damn cool.

I ran a 5K on Saturday....sick to my stomach...tired...dehydrated...I eventually finished 1 second off my time from last year. Grrrr why the fuck did I decide that I needed to run a marathon? Tis the season to start training....whatever. But my BFF and I are running together in August so thats kind of a goal setter. Figure if I can train myself to run 10 miles in 200 degree heat with 1000% humidity I can run a marathon at the end of October.

So yea I guess you could say I'm a little frustrated. I would love a moment for a vacation. If I didn't have so much damn crap to do around here then I'd probably sneak down to the islands this weekend with the hubby. Yeppers...the spoiled pilot (its ok i say it to his face) gets whisked away to the DR. Fucker.

Thats it. I want to keep this up to date more often, I think its a good place to vent about running and dippy doos that I work with.

Oh and I'm not allowing any comments...some people wrote some nastiness mostly because they're ignorant so thats the end of that, you lose your privilege.

Kissses and hits to the face with a chair!
