On the Mend
And it's about time, too. I've been fighting with being sick since Weds. (I'm an impatient person and I get bored of the same thing over and over again, mind you. ADD? Naw, it's just--
--oooo, shiny!!!
Ah...ahem.)

Work sent me home early last night. No biggie--it really wasn't all that busy. Shannon walked in for the night shift, took one look at me, and said:
"Hey Ginny, how are ya--(insert double take here)--you look like crap!"
"Geez, thanks." Nothing more reassuring than a comment that isn't. /sarcasm.

I finally fell asleep after 1am. Awake and sleep every hour on the hour. Finally, about 9ish this morning, I did something I haven't done in a long time--sat through Sat. morning cartoons. Ah the simple (and oh so commercialized) joys of childhood. Heh. ^^

The commercials pretty much fried my brain right around 11am, and that's about the time I got an email from EarthLink promising to correct the billing error they made (billing me for a service I am not using). It was a lot easier to sleep after that.

So here I am, awake and, after some horrible, nasty, a plague on the miserable demon passing himself off as a loving human who created the now being described medicine, looking a lot better than I was. Comparing the five "You look awful" comments from yesterday to having no comments like that at all today, yeah, I'd say I'm doing better. ^^ Still stuffy, Oo, but better.

And just in time to get cultured tonight, too. It's off to the Myerson (sp?!) Symphony tonight--I haven't been since I was little little little and I'm hoping my love for classical music'll still hold.

*sneezes* Wonder if I can squeeze in just 2o more minutes of sleeping. Wonder if I can blame being sick on all those frappin' doubles they've had me working.

Eh heh.

And never never try to door-to-door sell Ginny kitchen knives. I do believe I scared someone off yesterday. *evil grin* Too awesome.
Well, but the guy wouldn't leave! So when he was trying to use the knives as his last resort selling point, I let my eyes get reeeeeeal huge and squealed, "Ooo, shiny AND pointy!"
I don't think I've ever seen someone scramble away so fast before. ^_^

I'm improving on my "getting rid of salespeople" tactics. After that little problem with EarthLink (even if it is getting resolved), I just know I can't be nice to everyone--I have to say "no". Even if saying "no" means acting crazy.
Random Voice: Who says you're "acting"?
Quiet, you.

Right. Sleep. ^_^

And a very happy early 18th to Sara. And a really belated one for Desbreko. And for anyone else I've missed (and I know I have), love ya, mean it, and happy unbirthday.
