Catching Up

I have felt the need to catch up with the world wide web this past week. Since purchasing my laptop just a couple days ago - almost a week - I've been blog stalking, Facebook stalking, Twitter stalking (though not as fun as Facebook), watching my shows on Hulu, catching up on my YouTube channel subscriptions, reading skimming my NY Times subscription, trying to find cool stuff to do in Portland, ordering work pants online, adding stuff to my Amazon wish list. The list could go on for eternity, but I won't bore you.

With all this "catching up", I haven't slept very well. It's nearly 2 AM and I have to be at work at 8 AM. Yep. I have less than five hours to sleep tonight...awesome. I was supposed to be in bed at least an hour ago but being me, I needed to clean up my room after going to Target and Rite Aid tonight.

Tomorrow, tomorrow, I resolve to:

*Clean the rest of my room. Putting every needful thing in its place.
*Eat a healthy dinner 'cause heaven knows I can't take another night of eating a sandwich, hamburger, hard boiled egg or snack items as a meal for the millionth time this week.
*NOT play any games on Facebook. In fact, I resolve to delete most of those stupid games from my sight.
*Make a pro/con list of the next place I want to live.
*Watch a little t.v.
*Purchase new book and start reading it.
*Limit my "catching up" on all things internet to an hour.
*Get to bed and be asleep by 9:30 PM.

Yeah. I absolutely need to be in bed by then. Today at work, the F O U R hours of sleep I had managed to scrape together did not do a body/mind well. I don't deal with people/customers very well with less than 6 hours of sleep on any given day.

So, here's hoping my brain will shut off in the next 60 seconds...

Done

I am so happy that I'm done moving! Now comes the almost unwelcome task of unpacking. As it would have it, I've moved into a smaller space and I need to throw out a few things. Maybe, once everything is cleaned up, I'll take pictures. My younger brother, the previous tenant of the space, has left the bathroom a complete mess. Thank goodness for Scrubbing Bubbles and some pretty amazing toilet cleaner. It'll probably take a another day or two to get the shower to the point where I won't be afraid to shower in it. Its pretty nasty I tell you. Anyway, I'm running out of things to write about today. I'm not feelin' it...

No time

It's been roughly 5 weeks since I last posted anything. Work and school have almost literally sucked the life out of me. My dad and I just got internet at the house, which does make things a lot easier. Even then...I really don't have time to do any real studying. Here's a typical day for me: 7 a.m. alarm goes off. try to wake up. press snooze a couple of times. wouldn't be human if i didn't, right? 7:15 a.m. actually get out of bed 7:20 a.m. shower 7:30 a.m. get dressed for work 7:40 a.m. try to remember to: fill my water bottle grab a can of soup & crackers for lunch grab CNA books & supplies eat something on the way out the door then curse myself for forgetting to grab my smock and name tag. unlock/lock the front door, again. 7:45 a.m. drive to work 8 a.m - 4 p.m work 4 p.m. - 4:45 p.m. take coworker(s) home. 5 p.m. - 9 p.m. CNA class 9:15 p.m. change into pj's. find s...

Hooray!

I've lost 9.2 pounds in the last 6 days. I'm excited! The picture really doesn't have anything to do with weight loss per se, but it does have the word reduce on it and I took the picture, so I'm putting it up. :-]
