Ugh, I was wishing I didn't have to go to work yesterday because I'm starting to dread going there and *abracadabra* I'm sick as a dog.

I wasn't feeling particularly well when I left work after the half hour I spent there trying to get the company's mail back up. Mail was down as a direct result of the somebody I'm annoyed with not notifying me of the emails coming in about renewing the web hosting and the company's credit card on file being declined and the subsequent suspension of our hosting. I found the relevent files and changed the MX record, told the owner what I had done, left a note for the art director and went home. About a half hour after getting home I started getting feverish and decided to take a hot shower, I puked on my feet in the shower and then I crawled into bed for a few hours. Once I got up, the other owner (who could've fixed this on Friday if he wasn't off attending Buff Club lunches) had totally ignored what I had done to rectify the mail situation, had totally changed our name servers and our website was still not up. *sigh* I couldn't eat anything all day. I tried some mac and cheese and it ended up coming back up. I was running a huge fever and I contemplated calling in sick to pizza last night, but the fever broke at 2 am and I felt pretty good when I got up at 4. I didn't feel terribly bad when I got to the 2nd job, but after a half hour of sitting in the air conditioning (I keep turning temp up, art director turns it back down), I was freezing and feeling like crap. The fever crept back big time. I made it until 2:30 and I couldn't take it anymore and went home. I ate some chicken noodle soup when I got home and now my stomach is feeling unsettled again. Yay.

Oh, and speaking of crappy work stuff...the losers screwed my pay last week yet again. Labor Day was to be my first paid holiday and when I got my check I was missing those 8 hours. We only have like 13 empoyees left. How freaking hard can it be to get payroll right? Geez. They also missed my birthday. That hurt. For everybody's birthday they get a card and a cake and they totally skipped me over. If there was ever an omen that I don't belong there, that was it.

At least I'm getting to finally watch The Gilmore Girls season premiere. This season looks more promising that last year's. Now I'm going to check out this Supernatural show and try to get warm and not lose my soup. The guy who played Dean on Gilmore Girls, Jared Padalecki, is in this Supernatural show. His character's brother's name is Dean. I bet that's weird for the guy.

So, I was doing some web surfing trying to find the season premiere date for Gilmore Girls (as I'm going through some serious withdrawl) when I find that Joan of Arcadia had been cancelled. I. Am. So. Pissed. That was an awesome show. It's one of the main reasons I hate it when networks leave a season finale with a cliffhanger. I wonder if it's going to hang forever or if it will be picked up somewhere else or have a final movie to wrap things up. It's bad enough that there is no Star Trek whatsoever for the first time that I can remember, now this.

I just signed an online petition to let other networks know that we want Joan back on the air. I also just sent an email (that will probably fall on deaf ears) to CBS.

Hey, the season premiere of Monk is on USA tonight!!! Whoo Hoooooooooo! Can't wait.

Have you ever noticed that during the morning hours on television (between 9 and noon) that there is an overabundance of trade school commercials? In the last hour, while watching Regis and Kelly, I have seen commercials for the Denver School of Massage Therapy(three times), CollegeAmerica, Platt College (twice), Bel-rea Insitute for Veterinary Training, Westwood College(twice), Denver Career College(twice). I'm sure I missed a couple of them. It's the same with lawyer commercials, too. They really go after those that can't or aren't working for some reason, don't they?

Thankfully, come Monday morning, I won't be around to see them.
I start my new job on Monday!
Yay me!!!!! *happy dance*
