She's one tough babe. Never says one complimentary word to me, but I'm there ooohing and ahhhing over her teens sports pics and prom pics and scholaryship cr ap.

Don't know what she has against me - she's way more attractive than me - it's just such a downer when you think you are friends with someone and they show that they aren't.

All because I didn't triple check the e-mail yesterday (which I never do, she always does it herself, but SHE HAS LEFT EARLY THREE DAYS THIS WEEK DUE HER KIDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) and I get blamed for stuff that doesn't get done because SHE always does it - when she's freakin' here!

And, not for nothing, but I also got whacked by the boss for forgetting sometimes whether he or the other guy are HERE! They come and go all day long! Most of the time they're not even here! And I also, hello, split my work week with two other jobs! So sometimes, I answer the phone wrong - like "I'm sorry he's at lunch", when he's been quiet as a mouse in his office with the door closed since I arrived at noon . So yesterday, one of them tells me that I shouldn't be online as much so that my reaction time will be better. Hello? The other girl is online all day for her kids college prep cr ap. E-mails all about school, committees, prom, grad parties, etc.

But here I am wanting to talk to my chicken friends and NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

Life sucks.

Wanna hear passive/agressive? I'm wearing a super tight sleeveless top and my skinny jeans. Muscles all over the place, skinny abs, cute sandals! Normally I wear such proper office attire that an insomniac could fall asleep instantly upon seeing me.

I'm sick of being the lowest of the low.

When I used to work coporate, i'd buy cigarettes. I didn't smoke them, but if I needed 5 minutes out of the office when the stupid got thick, i'd wink at the chain-smoking owner and say "quick break"... then take a 5 min walk outside.

"When the stupid got thick" - yup that's about it. It's now when I wish I had a kid so they could call and tell me need to be picked up from school ASAP. All American family apple pie reason to get OUTTA WORK!

Must take up fake-smoking ASAP.

Well I didn't have kids to get out of working... but it can be effective. I only left work once in 3 years for Evan, one day Matt dropped the baby (he was trying to make a bottle and hold onto a screaming wiggling baby, bad plan). At the time I worked with big burly union pipefitters. They just about killed him for that one (no serious damage, but his face/head bruised up).

yesterday while boyd was at the agency waiting on the kids to be done with visits etc.. I overheard one of the agencies supervisors making one phone call after another... each call more desperate than the last. I ask her if I can help her, and she told me if I only had 1 more open bed. I laughed. I have 2 Geneva

Somehow she saw how many kids I had and didn't check and see if my license was maxed out.

It wasn't

Well things worked themselves out last night or so we thought....

Get a desperate call from the boss lady today asking if we would still help them out. Sure thing.. So I have a wonderful 9 year old kiddo from India visiting us for the weekend while they make arrangements. Days like this make me feel warm n fuzzy. Doing the right thing and feeling good doing it lol
