made me smile

civic duty

did early voting today...really hope i can see obama on friday!!!!!

head's too big

my head feels like it's gonna explode but i shouldn't complain too much. v-day came early in that my puter crapped out thursday & friday. friday, Alex got me a new computer....yay!!!!!!!! so no flowers to rub in any co-worker's faces, not that i would do that (giggle). no chocolate, although i wasn't planning any chocolate anyways because i'm seeing the denist for the first time in over 10 years on the 14th (tremble). which reminds me i'm a good niece because i called my uncle this week. i'm a good daughter because i remembered to pick up a b-day card. i'm a decent daughter-in-law because we visited the mother-in-law yesterday. i'm a good wife because i actually did laundry today and i'm a healthy wife because i went to the gym the past two days. i'm so looking forward to having the next few days off because my legs and arms feel like they want to fall off. i'm waiting for this load to finish in the dryer so i can put those away and then transfer the wash to the dryer and hit the sack. need to find out what tonight's movie is. i have to go to sleep with a movie on. it started out as having to have the radio on in jr. high and once i got a tv in my bedroom in high school movies have been the way to go. also way to go to obama!!!!! i missed most of the grammy coverage tonight. didn't they get the memo not to coincide with my law & order ci marathon? i know i'm just mumbling tonight. head hurts, remember.

just a small whimper

I don't think I'm gonna give anything up for lent this year. It's usually hard for me to think of what to give up because I tend to have to give up a lot of things already due to the IBS.

My temper has been eratic lately which hasn't been good. I was sick last week with migraine and was out all day Friday. Still feel like I'm playing catch up because on top of my regular work, I've had to train with a new procedure for the research at work. I'm so happy that it's Thursday though. Back to my temper...I tend to be really loyal. If I could, I would give out money to those in need. Today, a co-worker asked for money. I was glad to help. Since I have the nissan today, I thought she could go with me. She really didn't want to. My temper flared in which made me feel like she was a little ungrateful since I was going to be getting money for her but she would rather not go with me. I was readjusting my lunch plans for her. I finally thought it over after I got the money and was in line for lunch (since I now had to pick up lunch). I decided to just get over it and as a gesture (her not even knowing I was upset) I got her a smoothie at the place I went to. When I brought it in, she didn't believe I had gotten it for her. That made me feel better than just giving her the money. Maybe I can still make progress.

In other health news, seems that maybe exercise has taken my IBS to the other extreme. We'll have to wait and see after lunch!!!!
