what the shakespear is going on!
This year the holiday season has been a mixture of awesome and horrible stress.
The Goods:
-Crystal came home from London for her christmas break and I got to hang out with her a bit. She's got me starting up a WoW account so I'm fairly excited about that. We went to see the balconies with Lauren one night, had a couple nights in, went to see the Road. She even came to my impromptu party which ended up being just three of us.
-Lindsays on her break as well so we got to hang out. We are currently having a Doctor Who series one (new series one, with christopher eccleston) marathon. Went boxing day shopping, christmas shopping a couple weeks ago.
- I had two christmases this year, which was neat. My brothers family goes to his wifes for the holidays every second year, so we had a mini christmas last weekend. Brother got me the new Zelda DS game and the Frankie Manning biography, the two things I probably wanted most.
-A four day weekend is amazingly wonderful after months of 6 day weeks and many 12 hour days
-I'm debt free, but at the expense of my mutual fund
The Bads
-Because I've been so busy with work I was unable to find anything for my brother in time for christmas.
-Though christmas is over I still have so much to do for work. So much to catch up on, so much to sort out, so much to fix. The stress level isnt going anywhere, but the 6 day weeks are at least gone, or maybe just the 12 hour days.
-I'm having a real hard time dealing with the stress of my job right now. It is affecting my back, my head, my diet, and my over all mental wellbeing. I feel like I'm actually going crazy.
-My computer is right junked. I think it may just be a fan problem, but it's well old now and I'm looking for a new one. I still need to get this one fixed though so I can get a bunch of pictures and the such off it.
-Was hugely infatuated with a coworker, but he has left now and hopefully that will all go away and I can stop acting like a 16 year old girl with a crush.
-I keep frivolously spending on nerdy collectibles. I was able to keep myself from buying torchwood series one or doctor who series one at best buy though. Did buy myself two dunnys, a neil gaiman written batman trade, and trivial pursuit for wii.
The Weird
-I'm watching jessie's cats until she returns on the 28th. Amandas cats for a few days and another friends cats until the 1st. I'm the crazy cat watching lady
-I wanted to have a few people over for new years but my brother is trying convince me to stay at my folks for new years like usual.
-I'm working on a real list of things I'm going to try to do and change in my life for 2010. New decade, new start, that sort of things. I just hope I'll have the spirit to do it.
