my love for you goes tick tick tock BERSERKER
I have a full time job disguised as a part time job. An example of this truth is that I was scheduled to work five hours this week, when in reality I have worked every day eight hours a day. I'm not complaining though, money is a good thing. It's just that they call me an hour or less before they want me to show up. Meaning I'll stay up late planning to sleep in the next day only to be woken up by my boss or one of my co-workers on the phone asking me to come in. I haven't had to use my alarm clock once this week! I figure my new system should be just to sleep until they wake me up to work everyday.
The real problem is that I have become hooked on this show called Starting Over, where a bunch of women with big problems live in the "starting over house" and have group therapy and meetings with Life Coaches so that they can fix all their problems and graduate from the program. I don't know why I love this show, but I'm watching it. The show airs at 11am and then is repeated at 1am. So I keep getting called to work, miss the show, and since I can resist nothing I stay up until one to watch it thinking I'll be able to sleep in the next day. So far it hasn't worked out once.
But tomorrow I'm fairly confident they will not call. I am waking up early though to re-organize my life in preparation for Jess' arrival. Phantom came over tonight so I got to spend all of two hours with him this week. This really sucks. We had planned to spend Saturday together, but it was all tentative because I didn't know how long Jess wanted to stay, so that's not going to work, and then we're already going into another week. And I'm going to Port Hope next weekend to see Tama and her sister's production of Hedwig and the Angry Inch. So unless he comes with me, I'm not going to see him again. This is worse than when I was at school because we're so close! I mean, I see his bike in my backyard every day and I know that he's been there, but I haven't. It's so frustrating! Oh well, we make the best of the time we have.
Work for me has been good this week. It keeps me busy. For the first time this week I had to deal with two kids wetting their pants. That was interesting. I've developed a good childcare voice though. And I think I've got the lingo down. When I'm less exhausted perhaps I will publish a childcare glossary, however right now I've started to loose the ability to type so I will quit........ NOW.
