Fridays at Work? Awesome.

Because it's so quiet around here and a bunch of people are usually gone and the standards for the day tend to be quite low. Ahhh. I came in late to Job #1 today too since I had to be at Job #2 this morning for an "all school" meeting which means I got to sleep late which was good b/c I stayed up way too late last night. We had our 1st night of SFST class last night and although it was supposed to last until 11pm we got out of there shortly after 10pm. Mudflap wanted to go eat but I wasn't in the mood. For some reason the class was supposed to have like 30 people in it but only about 11 of us were there. Bummer b/c big classes are more fun, e.g., when we do the dealing with real drunks part on Saturday we will not need that many drunk people to assist!

So we'll be back for more tonight, then all day tomorrow although the instructor said we should be done way early on Sunday. Mudflap has offered to drive us to class on Sat. and Sun., yay. On Sunday evening I got free tickets to see Greg Behrendt at the Improv, which'll be fun since I'm currently listening to his Book on CD, "It's Called a BreakUp Because It's Broken", ha ha. JFu and R. will join me and I bet the audience will be 90% female!

My latest desired project is redecorating my house. I have read that's what you're supposed to do after a divorce/breakup. The problem is all my $ is going to lawyer fees, car repair (I have to get my struts done soon--$600+) and my upcoming road trips with friends. And those 3 things take priority, no question. I wish I could get S's stupid recliner out of the living room and replace his oriental rug with something else. I already got everything else of his out of that room. Also that big stupid broken projection TV but I will need a truck to haul it away and I'll need to get a TV stand to put the flat-screen on. All this will cost $ and I just don't have it in the budget right now. Of course it's important to be delicate with myself during this trying time and not pressure myself but seeing his crap in my house is affecting my mental health! At least the bathrooms are re-done, I got new hand towels and bath mats asap.

The other problem though is that I am not the kind of woman who has an eye for decorating b/c honestly I just don't have time for that crap. I mean, I'm going to spend my valuable time comparing 25 different shades of beige!?!??! Oh My God. I mean, I guess if I could I'd decorate the whole place either in animal prints (leopard, zebra etc.--it's a Hispanic thing!) or cowboy/western motif! Then again... who gives a shit. None of my wood matches, either! Who has time for this crap???
