sore…
i had first thought my period was a few days early when it came last night, but i just remembered that last month it was so bad it was a few days shorter than normal, so that makes since. it snuck up on be because i didn’t even break out before hand like i always do. cramps are not so bad, but i’ve been dealing with bad back spasms instead. they are easing so i should be fine tomorrow. i didn’t have to go on-site today so at least that worked out. i am pretty sick of laying in bed, but unfortunatly medicine doesn’t seem to do much for back pain.
my manager is looking into a several-month part time contract in d.c. for me. i am waiting to hear more about the actual duties it involves. she told me she contacted one of my references (finally). she chose to contact an art director i worked with on a project for aol, because it turns out many people from Big Temp Company know her. she gave a great review saying i work fast and always “nail it”. that sounds right to me… the fast part isn’t always best for me since i get paid hourly, doh. but i do feel i have the ability to really get what a client is after. so that and the praise from my frist assignment should really help me with the agency thinking of me.
i have the sweetest husband. he had to fill some prescriptions for his teeth in the evening, as well as get dinner supplies. i asked him to get me some medicine and chocolate, hehe. it is the first time in many months that i have taken medicine for my girl-pain. since the time it made me throw up. i felt okay when danny gave me one of his, so i decided it would be fine for him to get me some of my own. i was expecting him to get me some checkout-lane chocolate, but he returned with a 1 pound (!!!) box of dark chocolates that were 50% off, choc chip cookie makings, and cheesecake for two. geez! heh. i had one chocolate and a couple bits of cheesecake. it was all i could manage after a pasta dinner.
to answer some recently asked questions:
- it doesn’t amtter if i photoshoped my girly bits out of my photos or not. you aren’t going to see them either way so don’t bother asking.
- i won’t have “great hair” if i just “take out those braids”. yes, it has been a long time since the dog ruined my hair, but she damaged at least a quarter of it all the way TO THE ROOT. i would have had to shave it all off to get rid of the damage, but i needed an inch or two to attach the braids, so for at least 6 months i was growing out and cutting off that damage. for a year now i have been damage-free and just growing it. my hair only grows about a half inch per month and that hair is now 6 inches long no matter where it comes out of my head. the rest of my hair is to my colarbones since i recently cut it. i DO plan to do loose extentions eventually, but the fake hair is too staticy in winter. and really, your opinions make no difference in how i wear my hair. i have never cared what people beyond my husband think of my looks.
- yes i got your stickers/stamps/film. thank you.
anything else?
