i am having what you might call a bad day.
i am baby sitting for my friend's pug, lucy, while she is out of town.
she came by last night, dropped the dog off, we went to dinner. to le central, our favourite french place in town. had a great dinner.
lucy and my dog, joey, are great friends, but they've never stayed together.
turns out they can't not play when they are together. it's obvious they are both exhausted, but they can'st stop playing. so i have to physically separate them and then they both collapse and fall immediately asleep.
this am - my day off - hubby gets up to feed all the creatures at 6, then goes to work. i come down at 9 to find the tv remote control chewed to pieces and 1 AAA battery missing. joey doesn't eat things. lucy has a habbit of eating underwear and sunglasses, etc. so i assume it's her. well, she's too small to puke it up or poop it out, so FIRST day of dog sitting, i end up taking her to the hospital.
x-ray = no battery - thank god, b/c scopings are expensive.
but she does have scratches on both her corneas from my big clumsy dog scratching her. so eye meds.
and i still can't find the missing battery. my dog probably ate it.
then my cell phone malfunctions. i'm so sick of it! i want out of my contract b/c i want a sprint picture phone, so maybe that's part of the reason why it's been pissing me off so much lately - i'm looking for an excuse to break my contract w/ stupid qwest. or maybe my phone really hates me and doesn't want to be discarded.
anyway, none of this is a big deal.
why am i so yucky today?
i have that swollen eye feeling like i've been crying all day, but i haven't. just in my head.
and my stupid husband's stupid birthday is next ween and i have NO idea waht to get him. i finally had to admit defeat last week and tell him he has to give me some ideas.
he's had a week and even HE can't come up w/ anything!
i guess he's just really hard to shop for.
i guess i shouldn't feel bad.
but i do.
i wish i could be someone else for a while.
one of these beautiful, interesting girls.
i was put down pretty hard last week. i've been feeling moody - kinda shitty - ever since then.
my husband told me he thought a/b sending me flowers at work to make me feel better.
i wish he'd sent me the flowers instead of telling me a/b it.
oh well.

Funny you should mention flowers....I happened to be at he store the other day buying things for dinner, and I decided to buy two bunches of Asiatic Lilys,with the intent on giving them to the girl I am sorta-I-guess-maybe-posibly-i-dunno seeing, (you should have seen me riding with two baguettes and two bunches of flowers sticking out of the fairing on the bike in traffic-hah!)..so's i get back home, she comes over and I give her the flowers,... she tells me she hates flowers! I never in my life would have expected that..hmmm perhaps some childhood trauma? But then again this is coming from the woman who doesn't like mashed potatoes or chocolate. Chocolate?!...what the hell am I going to use as a peace offering when her little friend comes to stay for a week?
And what is this about wanting to be a beautiful interesting girl?....Um, wow, silly me, I must be missing something here , as I believe you already have those atributes in spades m'dear.
Sprint sucks, they are always trying to slam me with extra charges on my bill. I fight them just about every month..If you go Sprint..watch 'em like a hawk.
don't let them put you down...if need be kung-fu their asses, but don't listen to crap from knuckleheads.
Birthday presents?....hmmm. can't go wrong with starting with some socks...yep. socks. A man can't ever have enough clean socks. Ever. I suppose you could make the same argument for toilet paper, but somehow i don't think he'll be too jazzed w/ the mongo pack from Tar-ghay.
and what are you talking about?!! if you wern't one of these interesting, beautiful people do you think i would have sat here and read your whole journal entry?
well, anyways, i hope you feel better soon-it sounds like you've had quite a week!
