post #96.

almost at 100. kind of exciting...?? maybe? haha. perhaps not. i am too far behind everyone else. perhaps if i were to write two or three entries every day i would catch up. although, at the rate some of you have been writing lately... maybe i will eventually catch up.

i am SO tired.

i just got a very exciting picture message from home though... a picture of the dirty dishes in my kitchen. and guess what, it is half the amount it was when i left the house. thanks tyler! haha. you're the best. i am working a lovely 7 days this week, plus going to derby on wednesday. and i am REALLY going to put an effort in to make it to the gym wednesday, thursday, friday, and saturday. my schedule should allow. i also REALLY need to fold some laundry. the clean laundry is just exploding from the clean laundry basket that is kind of in our closet. it is everywhere, really. screaming at me to be folded every time i go digging through it for something to wear. and i feel so guilty grabbing what i need and neglecting the rest for lack of time to put it all away. not to mention... the dirty laundry basket is in a bit of a situation of its own. agh... things are getting away from me.

why is it things get so out of control all of a sudden. there is no in between manageable state. it's just... completely clean, or completely out of control. where is the happy medium? and everything always explodes the moment i start a 7 day work week too. and it isn't even like... go to work for 8 hours, and then done. i am working day and night every day but tomorrow. but i KNOW i am going to be too tired to do anything tomorrow. tomorrow will be day 2 of window washing, which my body and mind is already tired from today. and then wednesday is reporting from the fair and derby. thursday is fair, and then hurry back to the station for my evening shift. friday is the same as thursday. saturday is parade in the morning with the derby girls, and then fair. and sunday, i am just lucky enough to work my normal dreaded morning shift, following by rushing out to the fair for some more reporting. monday is the holiday - not for me! that means i work the morning shift, literally sprinting from the control room to the news room and back again all morning putting together news casts and doing the regular on air breaks - please note, that shift has 3 PEOPLE working it during the regular weekdays. next tuesday is the light at the end of the tunnel. i am HANGING on till next tuesday.

i will make it through this week. i MUST make it through this week.

i have been thinking about a lot of things... but i feel like, after writing all that, i can't get started on anything else. other things will have to wait for another time when you aren't already thinking about my horrid work schedule. other things deserve a moment of pondering all their own.

until then...
