One of Those

You know...it's one of those weeks where everything's just off.

I've had a million things to do and take care of in the past few days, my internal clock is all out of whack, and I'm half-expecting to wake up in the morning to think that it should be Saturday already with all the work I've been doing this week. It's crazy to think that even with the assistance of an intern, there just isn't enough hours in the day to get everything done. Coming into work on Tuesday had me FREAKED out, because I had so much to do, yet had so much more I still needed to take care of, I was just dizzy thinking that I only had two more days left to do things. I thought it was already Thursday. I guess in a way it's a good thing, because it really forces me to crank out everything I need to get done so I can move onto the next thing, and I've really been getting that stuff out there and fast. I've caught myself a few times just taking a moment to sit back and realize what I'm doing, and by the end of the day, I'm just brain dead.

Sadly enough, right now I have no time to allow myself to veg out after punching out.

I've got my own things to take care of, been doing a lot of writing, including helping out my boss' housekeeper write an appeal for her son who just graduated from elementary school, and is not allowed to enroll in the middle school in the same district that he's been in (the one closest to work). I'm volunteering for an event Saturday morning, and have yet to set aside a bunch of clothes I no longer want for this clothes swap event. After that, I have to work at my job's latest performance. On top of that, I'm organizing games for a baby shower on Sunday, and have yet to buy all the materials needed for those games.

At least I've been good at remembering most things. Usually during times like this, I get blatantly absent minded, like turn on my headlights during the day, or trying to get out of the car without unfastening my seat belt, or almost leaving the house without shoes.

One thing I've done with that so far is put on my underwear inside out today. I didn't realize that until I went to the restroom later in the day.

The worst is when I make bad decisions based on appetite and that time of the month. Having not eaten meat for most of the week, I had a sudden hankering for the stuff. At first, I thought to get carne asada fries, which I've never had before, and through the course of time, it somehow dwindled down to Carl's Jr., where I decided to get one of my usual spicy chicken sandwiches, and out of curiosity, I dropped the $3.09 for their version of the chili cheese fries.



It takes a lot for me to pay about $0.50 more for something that's not Tommy's chili cheese fries, but I figured, I might as well try it now before I try it in absolute chili cheese fries desperation moment and become utterly disappointed in them. Of course, the picture of them looked good, and when I got the bag of food, it smelled like it was made with real beef, but when I got it home and opened the container, I got the biggest disappointment in my life.

Did you see the fries that girl in the commercial was having? Yeah, I was NOT having that. It had a lot of cheese, and what little "chili" they had looked pale for chili and had such a small amount of the stuff in the nest of skinny fries. The fries themselves were probably the saving grace, since they were skinny and seemed baked, and were tasty on their own. But dropping $3 on what's suppose to be chili cheese fries is a downright scam.

Summer's in full swing, but I didn't expect it to be so CRAZY.

There's one good thing about things being crazy right now, it makes you look forward for the time when things won't be as crazy. I do intend to have a fun summer this time around, even though mine last year actually wasn't as bad as I thought (Though it had its rough spots).
