Another One of Those Days
Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 8:26PM in ramblings Again, here I am writing about boring crap just to write. Just like yesterday, today sucked. I feel like crap both mentally and physically. I slept in until about 1:30pm, about six hours later than usual, and ever since I have been sitting around waiting for the day to pass. Finally the sun is setting, so hopefully in a few hours I will be ready for bed. If my sleep schedule gets screwed up, I'm going to be pissed.
Despite my mood, I still managed to get a couple things done today, but mostly I sat around playing CoD4 and watching a few TV episodes. (The new series Drop Dead Diva on Lifetime is really cute, by the way.) Unfortunately though, I had to do so on our old tiny TV because yesterday our 50" HDTV decided it wanted to be a brat and turn itself off over and over again, and the only suggested fix I could find online didn't work for me, even though it seemed to do the trick for everyone else. It looks like I am going to have to call Samsung, which I would have done today, but I didn't feel like bothering.
Hopefully whatever the issue is won't be expensive to fix. I don't know how much longer I can go straining my eyes to try and see if that's an enemy I'm shooting at or a palm tree. You have no idea how much ammunition I have wasted on inanimate objects since moving the Xbox upstairs to the loft. I can only hope playing under such circumstances will improve my skills. I won't get my hopes up, though.
Worst of all, some little kid on Xbox Live won't stop sending me game and party invites and messages telling me to invite him to my game or to join his party or game. Sometimes he doesn't even let more than a minute pass between invites, and when I ignore him for too long, he always ends up joining whatever match I'm playing if there are available spots. Now, I have absolutely no problem with friends joining me like that. However, I prefer to play with people who are either really good at the game, conversation, or both. That kid is neither, and he is on all the time. Plus, he's fourteen. Enough said. I'd remove him from my friends list, but there are other people I actually enjoy playing with that he plays with too. Since he's pretty much unavoidable at this point, I don't want to end up having to tell him that I find him incredibly annoying when he'll inevitably ask why I removed him as a friend.
I have a feeling my mood won't be any better tomorrow, and going to the DMV definitely won't help that. However, I will be hanging out with my mom too, so getting out of the house and getting some decent human interaction should help.

Sorry your days have been so blah!! Have you thought of maybe picking up a part time job at least to keep your mind busy?! I hate going to the DMV I've gone 2 times in the passed week and left with a bad headache both times. I have to go again this week. UGH. Always a pain in the ass! Hope you have a better day tomorrow!
my mood has been kinda crappy lately too.. i blame lack of sleep an the shitty weather :\
@Bianca: I was thinking about getting a job, but Adam should have about a month of leave before he starts work after he gets home, and I don't want to work at all during that time. Aside from having been apart for a year and five months, we also want to try and go visit his family in MI and also take a little mini vacation somewhere close too. It would be hard to get hired anywhere and then ask for a month off shortly there after. Plus, I do have a lot I need to do around the house before Adam comes home, so I don't want to take away from the time I have to do those things. It would definitely be nice to actually interact with people face to face at work, though. When my mom came over today, I realized it had been 10 DAYS since the last time I had interacted with anyone face to face. :\
@Lawr: I think those two things have definitely contributed to my crappy mood as well.
I'm sorry that things are going so crappy. I'm very terrible when my sleep schedule gets off track. :/ I hate when that happens. It always takes a few days to get it back to normal. Drop Dead Diva looks interesting. I'll check it out. I'm always in need of a new television show to become addicted to. I have no solutions for the kid though. He sounds like a real pain.
I understand that!! :) I'm sure it'll be nice to have him home! Totally jealous right now - but in a good way! :) Hopefully these next 3 weeks will go by fast for you!! :) Have some babies!!! :p
