I'm tired and I'm getting silly.....

[AllyandJack]

I've been at work since 6:30. I'm staying until 7pm. I'm getting a little punchy and starting to giggle over everything.

I just read a local newstory about how the phone lines were down. The reporter interviewed a local business. They said "Pap John's Pizza". For some reason, "Pap John's" is making me chuckle. I know it's Papa John's, but it's still funny.

Then, my best friend calls me in a tizzy....she's going crazy. Why, you ask? Nanny 911 has apparently been moved to another time and she NEEDS to know when. She called me at work to ask me to go online and find out what happened to Nanny 911. I made a big production about how I'll go online for her.....you know....because I wasn't online doing THIS all day.

Then, she tells me how she's not sleeping. She's 5 months pregnant. She's very uncomfortable. Yadda yadda.....proceeds to utter these words, "I can't wait until the baby is born so I can sleep again."

This sent me over the edge. I laughed out loud and said, "You think sleeping will get EASIER when the baby is born?" I thought it was funny....her....not so much. She went into a lengthy explanation about how it WILL, in fact, be easier to sleep when the baby is born. Okie Dokie......obviously a sensitive topic.

My back hurts, so I put on this Icy Hot patch and now I smell like Old Lady. I'm walking around thinking, "I stink....everyone can smell this thing.....maybe they won't know it's me....."

Then, I started thinking of that show - Funniest TV Moments or whatever it's called. They had a newscaster who tried to say that some magician was going to "blow himself up in a porta-potty", but forgot the word "up". This is hysterical to me.

I need to go home. Two more hours. I think I'll make it as long as nothing else is funny. Everyone be serious.

Ok, then don't look at this:

I hate 12's - I just got done talking to my boss about not wanting to do them anymore. She had no idea I was unhappy. She made notes. I am hoping for the best.

I know what you mean about everything being funny after awhile. It happens to me too. I wish I could tell you what I found funny last night, but it isn't funny at all and you would think I was horrible for finding it funny.

The sleeping better after the baby's born thing had me Yeah, right! There's no sleep at all once the baby is born! However, if your friend is like me and sleeps only on her stomach, maybe that's what she means. At least the sleep she's able to get will be enjoyable and not like you're sleeping on a bowling ball In my thrid trimester, I had to make a "nest" of pillows to hold my belly so I could sleep.

I like the 12's because I can take Wednesday and Friday off.....I like the 3 day week. But, I'm really getting punchy here.

I think she's overthinking the sleeping....she read you're not supposed to sleep on your stomach....then she read you should only sleep on your left side. Well, for her, that puts her face to face with her DH (she hates him) and she can't sleep with him breathing in her face (they're in a queen bed).

It's almost time to leave! YAY!!!

It doesn't help that I haven't eaten anything but 5 peanut butter crackers all day. I'm starving....I called DH and told him there had better be food ready to eat when I get home or something is getting eaten raw.

I took on a 2nd job from 10:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. along with my regular job during the day. I thought I would be able to sleep from 4-8 p.m. but I never could.

One nite around 3:30 a.m. I was so tired and my hand held scanner went down again, I just sat on the floor and I would of laid down if my supervisor hadn't run over to me to see what was wrong. I lied to her about being so tired, but I told her I was just frustrated that my scanner went down again, and she rebooted it for me and got me on my way again.

I want to work again to get some extra money for Christmas, but not the 3rd shift deal again. I just wished stores would pay more. I earned $7.50, if I wanted the 4-10, I would only be paid $6.00. That sucks.
