Work has been good. After a few difficult encounters with a guy I work with who is a jerk, my boss  agreed that it would be best for everyone involved if we didn't have anything to do with each other any more (he's on the other side of the office and needs to stay there!).  Sooooo, now I almost never see or talk to the asshole now. No more abusive or inappropriate comments from him, hooray! It's been so nice not getting angry and having to hold it in anymore, lol.

One of the other guys I work with has been out of the country for the past couple of weeks, so I've been watching his book of business and taking care of his clients while he's been out. It's been really stressful, but good. The downside is that, by the time I get home from work, I'm usually dead and drained. It's been early nights to sleep after a cocktail most evenings!! He's due back next week sometime, so I'm looking forward to that.  

I've wanted to call in sick a few times since that guy has been out of the country, but I've had to suck it up and come in to work so I can look after those clients, plus I had a few really big meetings last week and one more tomorrow that I've had to attend, as I'm the reason the meetings were able to be set-up in the first place (yay for me).

I don't know if I'm getting sick or if it's allergies, but I've been having to take my migraine medication like it's candy and have added allergy stuff to the mix over the past couple of days. My head feels a little better, but it's like I'm always on the verge of a full blown migraine, which is physically exhausting. My back has been hurting too. I think I retain a lot of my stress in my back. I had a masseuse tell me that once, so it must be true, right? Maybe I can book a massage one of these days. I got a pedicure this past weekend when I went up to visit a friend and I was really disappointed. I paid extra for a good foot massage and she only spent a few minutes on them and she even hit the bottoms of my feet a few times! Who does that? That hurts, that doesn't feel good!

I'm a mess!! (Nothing new there, right?)

I spent some time this past Saturday with a friend who lives out in the IE now. I haven't seen her in a while since she lives so far away, so it was nice to spend time catching-up. We went to dinner and the movies and had a good time. I was thinking about it, and this year is the 25th year we have been friends. It just doesn't seem right that I'm old enough to have had friends for that long,

Fingers-crossed I can leave work a bit early Friday as I have a LOOOOOONG drive planned that day. I'm not looking forward to being in the car for hours on end, driving while I feel shitty, but I'm looking forward to the trip. Again, gotta suck it up and get shit done. 😀
