E-A-T H-O-T D-O-G

Ok, so I like the Faint, but the opening of that song was a little too grating.
So now you get a totally random little ditty about hotdogs.... (The Detroit Cobras, in case anyone is interested).

So I'm wondering if I shouldn't take a little tip from (e:Joshua) and hibernate for a while... at least emotionally... I've been on too much of a rollercoaster lately... pulled in too many directions... work... friends... boys... some good, some very good, some shitty... And I don't do well with uncertainties. Not sure where my priorities do/should lie. Who to put first, when to put myself first, when to say screw it all and just stick my head in the sand. Unfortunately, I can't have my cake and eat it too- I fear there is no easy way out of my mess. Someone will be hurt/alienated, and it may be up to me to decide who. Or, to suck it up- and have it be myself. I repeat- too much drama for this mama. Which is crazy, b/c I HATE drama, and always try to keep things simple. But they never are. I guess that's what being a grownup is all about. I'm not sure I like it... I think I need a week or so at some sort of zen spa. ;)

I am also super-pissed at my work. I want a day off to go to my dad's 60th birthday party in the Outer Banks. Never been there, and it will be a bit of a family reunion. I need ONE measly day off- I want to leave fri and come back sunday, instead of leave sat and come back sunday. So, since I am asking for SO MUCH, I am at everyone's mercy, and have to pick up all the shit. Which means 3 saturdays in a row. That means NO DAYS OFF FOR 4 WEEKS. Not to mention missing Matt's bday. So not fair, but there's nothing I can do about it I don't think. But I was looking forward to the party.

Fuck.

And now all my plans for tonight just fell through.
Goddammit.
That's it, I'm going to bed.
No green beer for me.
No corned beef.
No jackdaw show.
No seeing-my-friend-before-she-goes-to-china-tomorrow.
No Spot.

Hmm, well this post is shot to shit... I had some funny (well at least I thought it was funny) stuff to say, but now I've forgotten it all and am just cranky...

Blah!!

Happy St. Pat's everyone.
And Happy St. Matty's Day, too.

Drink some green beer for me...

Granted it is in huricane country but other then that it is a great place. I don't know what it is like to live there. One section I belive Kill Devil Hills is where Denis Aderson the Driver of Gravedigger (monster truck) I also belive that is the area that tew right brothers where the first people to fly. It is to bad you can't get down there. I think that if you ever have time for a vacation it would be a nice area to go visit and go see some family to.

Yes, of course, we all do, from time to time, put someone else first for the sake of an emergency or something like that. But when it comes to the big picture, you need to do what is best for yourself and for you. Sometimes, it can be a challenge knowing what that is.. but i do think in our gut, we all know what is right for us. I always thought if i can't tell the world, including granny, what i am up to, then perhaps i ought not to be doing it. Then again, i had an interesting granny. She taught me to swear in 3 languages!

As for your work... i have always, always, always thought that docs (particularly the ones in training) are far too overworked. I am supposed to trust my life , or the life of a loved one with someone who hasn't eaten all day, hasn't slept since 2 days ago and hasn't had a day off in a month? I don't think so. Give me a well rested doc, nurse, xray tech... and pilot. That makes me secure!!
