so i am lame or retarded or both. last night i only got one hour of sleep, but yet here i am typing away at 1:30 in the morning. what's wrong with me! i was taking care of some more wedding stuff for my sister and yada yada yada. my mom left for taiwan today after a hectic day of packing and calling me to come home right away because she locked herself out and what not.. she was STRESSED. we didn't leave the house until like 4:05ish or so and her flight was at 5:30. which is not so so bad because we live uber close to LAX, but it was an international flight, and security sucks up time like no other. but i think now that my mom is off she will start feeling better.. hopefully.
so needless to say i took off of work early to accompany my mom to the airport. i didn't have to because my dad was around, but it was good that i did because i helped out my mom some and she stressed out so easily and my dad brings it out in her. but i felt kind of bad because monday i took off early, but came in early tuesday to make up for it, and then thursday i came in late cuz i overslept and then today i showed up early, but left early as well. so monday i'll have to go in early to make up for that. but i guess my boss is cool with it. he's one of those mild mannered guys, so you can never really tell if he really cares or not. and since i've heard everyone in that office talk about everyone else, it makes me wonder. but i try to be cute and nice and bring in chocolate and bribe them into liking me. :P but i was SO ready to get out of there anyways. it was a hellish day, maybe because i only had 1 hr of sleep, but apparently the second temp showed up today (which i wasn't expecting and my manager forgot to tell me) so i had to run back and forth trying to train both temps at the same time. they both seemed really confused at some points so i started typing out these stupid-easy directions so that they could hopefully have too many crisises while i am gone (FOR THREE AND A HALF WEEKS) yayyers :) it was okay, but it was really draining. it's hard to write out really detailed instructions, it reminded me of all those CADA (leadership) conferences i went to in middle school. funny. but yea, i was still a little frustrated with the slowness of one temp, and then the other temp comes and she's even slower! it's interesting that there are some people who just aren't that handy with computers. it was really hard training her at first because i just felt like i had to explain things that were so simple, 5 times over. good thing i learned a lot of patience doing inner city games. towards the end of the day she got a bit quicker, so that makes me happy. the other guy i will still have to work with on monday.. but i didn't really spend all that much time really traning him, but he tries my patience sometimes as well. :P ack.. i need to stop being a brat. but it was weird to work with these people and have it be so hard to try and teach them things, when i picked up on things very quickly. and people are amazed that i've graduated college already and that i'm such a fast typist (thanks to AIM! :) ) so it makes me thankful for the opportunties i've had and that my parents have provided me with. but it also makes me wonder why i am in the same lump category as these people. ack.. i'll get a "real" job soon.. i swear. but one good thing is that when both temps were here today i felt this huge sense of freeness and was really excited :) and i got to work on one of the new laptops that was being worked on for a client. it was sexy.. i wanted to take it home with me. but we'll see how monday and tuesday go.. hopefully it'll be okay. the bad part of today was that the guy who sits next to me brought out this bag of the new guacamole doritos that i have this huge craving for thanks to nicole and her grad after party :P.. but they have such a great smell i just wanted to grab the whole bag from him and eat it all.
of course i couldn't have any because of my "diet". but you will be dissapointed in me because i broke it and cheated anyways. my dad gave me three strawberries (and they were SO good) i had a chicken burrito. sorry no-carb god. i just couldn't do it.. food wasn't tasting good anymore and there's only so much meat i can handle! (strange concept, and i never thought i'd ever say that.. but it's true). oh well, i might go back on the plan.. in general i've been eating a lot less just either because i've been busy, or got sick of all the eggs/cheese/meat dealio.. like i missed dinner the two previous nights and before my cheating.. today i only had half a hot dog (uncooked :P) and a cup of sugar free jello. oh and lots of water. yea.. that's healthy :P so who knows. i was already planning on cheating sunday anyways with sakura and my el cotixan's/roberto's feast.. so i was just gearing myself up for it so i don't blow up or get sick. i hope. gotta utilize that bally's membership! if only i had a time turner like hermione. ;P that would rock :)
tonight i watched a few hours of tivo and then my dad went to go see supersize me. the film of "epic proportions" about the guy who eats mc donald's for 30 days, 3 meals a day to see it's effects as he delves into the fact that america is the fattest nation. (if you check out their website, they have this really cool ass game that i would (of course) play at work.. but it's rad. it's "burgerman" so it's like pacman, but it's the guy eating burgers and the clowns are the ghosts.. it's fun!) it was interesting.. i basically already knew everything that happened from people talking @ sundance and whatever else my sister told me. it has some really interesting parts and other times i seemed to get really bored, i wonder if it was just me...and there are a few other issures, but it was overall good - you should check it out. but it made me really want a big mac or chicken mcnuggets. mmmmmmmm. for dinner we were going to get chicken lettuce wraps from pf changs for my no-carb dinner, but there was no time, which is how i arrived at the baja fresh next to the theatre. but it was yummerific so no complaints here.. until i can't find in my bridesmaid dress anymore. ack!! tonight was fun.. i got in a huge fight with my dad on wednesday .. so i was edgy yesterday, but my dad gets over/forgets things very quickly, so it was better today. i feel bad because he goes to bed pretty early since he wakes up so early and i work late a lot or sleep in on weekends and so i feel like i haven't really seen him much. i'm glad we got to hang out because we never really do anymore. :) i'm a total daddy's girl.
holy hell it is 2am.. i was gonna go to bed like an hour ago. my time management sucks. i gotta get up and do some video interviews in a few hours. peace out!
