Like Abandoned Monkeys
So I returned to work today, after being off for a week. Wow. When I walked in from the parking garage all I heard was "hey Dana!" "welcome back Dana!" "Dana!" so I figured it might be bad. My desk was totally covered with files. I couldn't even see the top of my desk. It sucked. Plus, my group was so needy. They reminded me of a bunch of abandoned monkeys who were scared, hungry and confused; jumping around and smearing their feces all over the place. Hah. So, a lot of stuff has come unraveled this past week and I figure it's going to take me about a week and a half to whip the troops back in shape. I'm so glad this is a short week, however it sucks on one hand because now I only have 2 more days to catch up on my weeks behind worth of work. Wooo good times at work!
Traffic really sucked tonight. I hate St. Louis traffic. Mostly because you fuckers don't know how to drive. Sometimes, I want to purposely hit the car in front of me out of rage. As in, step on the gas and hit the car. Does anyone else ever have these feelings of rage? Speaking of rage, prick in the big SUV on 40 tonight? Fuck you buddy. Yeah. I flipped you off without even turning my head. That's what you get for flashing your lights at me and honking multiple times just because I turned my blinker on to get in a different lane. Unfortunately some people have to EXIT and when it's rush hour, exiting isn't that easy. Prick. Don't honk at me.
Moving on, I went to see the H.O.S today. My mouth is healing up nicely and he said I should be back to my normal self in 3 to 4 days. Sweet! Today, my mouth/face is extremely sore but I know that's because I've used my mouth/face today more than I have in a week.
Oh, I found out from my Mom today that it would be okay to spend Thanksgiving Day with Chris's family and not have to cook 2 days in a row. So, Thursday we'll go to Chris's cousin's and then Friday, my family will be here. Yay! I love the holidays. I'm so excited to start Christmas shopping. I already know what I'm getting for my sister and a few things for a few other people, but that's about it.
Well, I'm going to watch some TV and then go to bed. I'm pooped after today.

Hah! Alien creature is an understatement. I can say, by far, it was the worst medical thing I've ever gone through. Though, if it wasn't for the infection, it probably wouldn't have been so bad.
When I used to work and drove in traffic I felt the same way! So many stupid people on the road.
Now I hate to admit it but I think I am one of the stupid people. There is always a kid screaming or something else going on in my car, I try to be a good drive, but it doesn't always happen!
I have only started to experience St. Louis traffic. Given everyone's reaction to rain (which means coming a stop and start crawl), I can only guess that winter is a whole lotta fun.
This probably wont make you feel any better, but at least when it gets icy, no one slows down. O_o
Until they plow into you, that is.
Oh Shawna, you're in for a special treat this winter! St. Louis drivers are the worst. Wait till we get ice. Fun stuff! Just remember to be alert and use your middle finger without even looking. ha.
Emily-it's not the drivers who are tending to their children who bother me. It's the guy in the Audi, talking on his cell phone and trying to take off his tie, while driving that pisses me off.
