Well, it appears my computer is quite often "under construction."  I've decided to use Megan's monitor for a while longer; just not as much as mine.  This should give me some time to clean my house.  I do say "should" because I can find a hundred other things to occupy myself with besides that.

I cannot wait to start my new job.  My headache is finally going away.  I do think it was a huge tension headache in addition to a sinus infection.  When you work in a circus, you tend to become a clown.  For survival purposes, many things are ignored and become the background.  All of a sudden, these things are becoming more and more evident and driving me up the wall.  Now that I know I only have 3 days to put up with it, I'm feeling more at peace.

One example since I'm on a roll....I went to lunch with a co-worker yesterday...Chinese, very good buffet...$6.00.  Hmmm....I had to pay for both.  It appears the repo man confiscated her car.  She needed her whole paycheck to get it back....$1,700.  Ok...what's wrong with this picture?  She clears twice what I do, has a husband who works, and they live with her mother in a house that has no mortgage.  She hasn't made one payment on that car because she said the bank was supposed to be directly removing it from her account.  She also did mention that it was sort of ironic and she was ashamed of herself that I bought her lunch for her because of our incomes and stations in life.  LOL...she should be.  I promised not to tell anyone, which I won't at work, but I'm telling cyberworld.  This is not the only co-worker I've bought lunch for.  Another is always "broke" and makes the same amount as the above.  I have to ask myself...what do they do with this money.  How can you not make a car payment that's less than $300 a month and just allow it to go into repo when you have that much income rolling into your hands?  Oh well, I will be on a totally different floor come June 5th.

One of the girls that got promoted over me the last time has moved into my section.  She sings, whistles, claps her hands, and blasts her radio all day long.  Drives me whacko and I know it's driving those who have more responsible jobs than I do totally nuts.  Yet, management says nothing.  Adios!

My supervisor is in Disney World this week.  I certainly hope she is enjoying herself because I have been deluged with work which is falling off of two very long tables.  I think she is under the impression that I will have everything cleaned up before I leave...not gonna happen.  The mailroom is arriving down in my area with a pallet every day instead of a cart.  Do I care?  LOL..not really.

I do think as Memorial Day approaches, we Americans need to count our blessings and show appreciation to those who have died and are dying to preserve our freedom.  Also, show appreciation to our country's veterans who served in the armed forces for the same goal.  We owe so much to these men and women.  If not for them, for one thing, we would not be sitting here voicing our thoughts and opinions on the web.
