not so personal day, haha

I decided that I deserved a personal day today, so I didn’t go to class. It’s just 9-10, and that hour really would have killed me. I was up all night with horrible stomach cramps/and the like. Keith’s job had an open house and I overindulged in some Artichoke Dip and I think all of the cheese bothered my stomach since I don’t eat it that often to begin with. No good. I kept waking up every hour and I got barely any sleep.

Christmas shopping is underway! I only have to buy for Keith, his parents, his brother/sister in law, and my aunts, uncles, and Grandma. My parents and friends are all finished because I spent the day shopping for gifts with Kristal. I also managed to dust the house for my Mom and cleaned my bathroom. Now at 6:30 at night, I’m beat. I probably should have just enjoyed my day relaxing, but I wanted to get some things done.

Tomorrow I’m working my first 7 hour shift since I’ve been back to work. 9am-4pm. Only working 9am-2pm killed me last Saturday so if I feel tired, I’m just going to say so, since we don’t really get breaks unless we beg. Saturdays everyone comes in to engorge themselves with nasty Panera food. I honestly could care less about this job. I’m so sick of being the person who has worked there the longest and is getting paid less than almost everybody. I’ve discussed this professionally with my boss more times than I care to mention. Eventually I need to get out of there. One day a week is becoming too much.

Now onto fun things.

Randi tagged me! So now I can post my awesome and seasonal desktop. =]

Anyone who wants to can do this. :)

  1. OMG! I LOOOOVE your desktop! I want to spice my desktop up with some seasonal wallpapers too. *searches for some*

    I HATE those stomach cramps. They’re so painful.

  6. It sounds like you’re ready to get your Christmas shopping done. It’s weird how everyone’s super ready for that this year. Or is it just me? *lol* Me, I start shopping in Spring. ^^

  7. Hope you’re able to sort out those problems with your job, it’s a bit rubbish that you’re paid less despite the fact you’ve worked there longer =/
    Cute desktop ^_^

  8. Sounds like you were pretty productive on your personal day, lol! I love your desktop! I think I have to Christmas decorate mine now too, it’s December all ready, I’m getting behind!

  9. I saw that on your flickr feed, it’s so cute! Good luck with work :)

  10. I haven’t got anything for Christmas, but the other day my parents went to buy food for Christmas. I don’t know why they did that, maybe they think that they won’t be able to find anything nearer Christmas. Tomorrow I am going shopping, so I hope to get most things that I want to give.

    That is a cute wallpaper. In my experience the cats would be up the tree, rather than under it :)

  11. That is horrible! You have to beg for breaks? You know, that is illegal if they don’t supply you with a break time. By law, they are required to give you a 15 minute break if you work at least 4 hours. The fact that you don’t even get paid as much as the newer employee is outrageous! I can’t believe they would do that to you. You should seriously get out of there!

    I love personal days :) Sometimes we just all need them.
