Sweaty, Tired & Not Ready for Monday

Yes folks it's that time again ... another week ... another weekend gone by.

I hope that you all had a most excellent week.  Monday & Tuesday were the best two days of my entire week.  After that the week went back to being stressful.

The lunch thing with the boss went really well, despite the fact that lunch it self was horrible.  I hate burnt food in any form or fashion.  I had a burger that was char grilled.  Yuck.  In my book that is burnt.  I know lots of people like it but not me.  Make it done but don't burn it.

The best part of lunch was before our meal as we were walking.  A car hit a puddle and it went, wait for it ... yep all over my boss.  He was drenched.  It could only have been more classic if he was wearing white.  I got some on me to but I had sense enough to move out of the way when I saw it coming. 

So he listened to my concerns but for the most part he put on a shuck and jive show.  That is probably the only thing I hate about my job.  My boss and several others either put the job back on you, to make you feel like your lazy.  Or they just totally dodge the issue.  Mother fuckers!

A female that I work with has decided to start back biting.  I confronted her two weeks ago and she said everything between us was fine.  Now, she is still doing the same old crap.  She doesn't have the guts to face me, she does it all behind my back.  I have no idea if I did something wrong, if she is dealing with something outside of work or she just likes to be a bitch.  Anyway, I had enough of it so I went to boss man.  He hasn't a fucking clue on how to solve this.  He told me to take her to lunch and confront her.  I told him to drop dead.  I said I did that a couple weeks ago but without the lunch part and she wouldn't talk. You think first of all she will go to lunch with me.  Second you expect her to open up?  I don't.  So he makes the big money, me & my partner agree that it's his job to fix it.  Will he?  Good question.  Right now she is giving me the silent treatment.  When she is in the room you can cut the tension with a knife.  I told him plain & simple I can't work like this. 

Yeah, I know I bitch a lot about work but I have to let it out somewhere.  I took a tactic to help let off some steam and I wrote her a letter.  It's the kind of thing that you write with the intention of giving it to the person but you never do.  I put so much of my heart & soul into this letter that I let my partner read it.  He liked it but said that I shouldn't give it to her.  It would show lack of balls and appear as if I was hiding behind something.  Okay, I see that point.  So it went to the paper shredder.

My partner has a doctors appointment tomorrow afternoon.  We don't have any blood results.  I hope maybe he will get them tomorrow.  He doesn't feel good.  He is tired and eating helps fix it some but not totally. 

Our weekends are usually all about food.  Well Friday I felt like I was getting an allergy attack.  I started itching everywhere when I woke up.  I took medicine and went to work.  It helped but didn't stop the itch all day long.  By night time I was miserable.  I took a pill that knocks me out and helps with the itch.  So I was pretty well out for most of Saturday.  I got up around noon, when a friend of our decided to stop by.  My partner told him I was in my bedroom in my underwear.  I was told to come out.  Well, I didn't want him to see me.  #1 he isn't gay and #2 there is no point in letting him see my body.  So I waited long enough and the two of them took off.  I hopped in the shower and was dressed by the time they were back.  Then we sat and talked.  The friend left, we took each took a short nap. Then it was off to White Castle.  Yeah, it was okay but nothing spectacular. 

Sunday, we did some cuddling.  Then we went to a Mexican Restaurant for brunch.  Neither of us though it was that good.  That's all we have had all day long.  Yeah, we tend to limit ourselves to one meal per day.  Not always but that is a typical weekend.  I still may grab something before the night is over. 

We did go shopping today for some different speakers for my partner.  He wound up buying a system by Logitech.  I really tried hard to get him to go Bose, but he just didn't want to part with the cash. I have been thinking about getting one of those Wave Radio's.  Yeah, it would be cool to hook up to my TV.  Then again it's a lot of money and I already have stereo speakers in my TV.  It's not like I have some home theater.

I was able to surprise my partner last week with Frost Nixon.  He has wanted to see that movie forever.  I put it in my Netflix queue.  He watched it on Thursday.  I returned it on Friday.  That's the quickest turn around I have ever gotten from him on a movie.  Normally he puts it in his room and it gets lost.

I really hope with all of my heart & soul that this week doesn't present any challenges.  That I am just allowed to work without any problems.  I need to complete a bunch of tasks and lord knows I need to tame my work e-mail. It's a total mess.  Something has to give so I let my mail back up.  I would just like a normal week, heck a couple of them would be nice.  I don't know that I will get my wish, but you can't stop a girl boy from dreaming. Besides that it doesn't cost anything to dream.  So live it up and start dreaming today!

My partner talked me into getting tickets for Yanni Voices.  I really don't want to go because I think it will not only be a waste of my time but it will be sheer disappointment.  I like Yanni but the voices thing, well that could go.  However, he told me he would pay for the tickets and that I should give it a chance.  I remember when I was younger I was told to give every tune, song, etc a chance then make a decision.  Okay, so here goes.  I hope we have a good time.  We shall find out soon enough!

Have a great week.
