Sorry about the lack of posts. I've been having a really bad bout of depression.
First, this area of the country is in an arctic cold air mass. It started coming in on Monday with almost 100mph winds. Now it's freakin' freezing! Right now it's -7°F. The weather has been yucky for days (it hasn't been great since before Thanksgiving, I don't think) and will continue to be for awhile.
I'm pretty sure I suffer from Seasonal Affective Disorder. One day I'll have enough money to find out for sure. I've also had some bad insomnia. I had to resort to taking NyQuil again last week to get some sleep and to stifle the chronic flour-cough that's been made worse with the freezing, dry air.
I was really sick yesterday and am still not feeling so hot. I have a canker sore that always shows up when I am starting to fight something icky. It showed up yesterday morning. I started running a really high fever around 2pm. I crawled into bed and shivered uncontrollably until the fever broke about somewhat around 8pm. My tonsils are still a little sore and I'm a little feverish still. Ugh.
The pizza place is unbearable. I had hoped that the staff would come together after the manager's suicide. No such luck. There's more fighting and back-stabbing than ever. The karma is so bad. The aura of the place just weighs really heavy on me the minute I walk in the door. After I find a job to replace the screenprinting job, I need to find a way to replace the pizza income.
I came to the realization today at work that it's been a long time since I had a really good Christmas. I went through my old archives and sure enough, the last four Christmases I have been underemployed and in 2001 I was really sick. I can't remember what happened in Christmas 2000, but I clearly remember that 1999 sucked ass, too. WTF? I had hopes that this year would be different up until the day I was let go from the screen printer. I don't even want to celebrate Christmas this year.
One small bright note: The Office christmas show last night was really funny. It made me giggle.
So, that's what's been up.
