Currently Watching Law & Order:Special Victims Unit 2 By Christopher Meloni see related

Ever have those days when, from the moment you wake up, you just know it's gonna be a bad day? Yeah...insert yesterday here. I woke up with the feeling that this was not gonna be a good day. I woke up at 7am and felt like I had been hit by a sumo truck. Christine kept me up late the night before, helping her celebrate her -almost- birthday. I SO did not wanna go to class but dragged myself to the shuttle, then walked to class like a good girl. I sat down and spilled my precious coffee all over the table, floor, clothes, everywhere. Gross. I like the smell of coffee but even that is a little much. Class was boring and long and seemed to go on for eternity. Walked back to the shuttle in the blistering heat and then went back to bed, I felt so terrible and felt a migraine beginning to form. I tried to sleep but people kept calling. This girl from work called and asked me to cover her shift that night, her sister was in the hospital and her parents were in Canada. I told her to call everyone she could and call me if there was absolutely no one. I needed a night off and it was Christine's birthday. Seconds after I hung up with her, my manager called me and asked me again I could cover the shift. I was like "dude, I understand the situation but NO! I'm exhausted!" They've worked me to the bone, I'm pulling 50-60 hour work weeks, plus school, and now they're asking me to bend over backwards for them. No thank you.

I dragged  myself out of bed again shortly thereafter and made it to my next class - also deadly boring. I stopped to talk to a friend and suddenly realized I would miss the shuttle back to my apartment. I ran to the stop and watched it pull away. I ran all along the grassy knoll in the blistering heat and watched it stop twice more, each time just far enough away that I couldn't reach it. It wouldn't have been so bad except that I had to work at 1:30 and it was 1:15 already. So I had to wait for the next shuttle to come, around 1:25 and zoom all the way downtown. I was hot, sweaty, irritated and ready to cry. I hate being late for work, especially my nannying job. I was terrified what other things my day might bring, since you never know with kids. There's  no limit of possibilites. Luckily, my bad day seemed to end there, thank God, but continued on today. Tonight, at work, I was working with a floating manager, Jim, when I got a call. It went something like this:

Me: Hello, Port City Java downtown. This is Wes.

Caller: Yes,  I'm from the One Tree Hill set, we're filming down the street *they do this all the time* and need to place a big to-go order.

Me: Ok, how big are we talking here?

Caller: I need 50 Slush N Joes...

*For those of you not familiar with PCJ lingo, think Starbucks Fraps*

Me: Excuse me, 50?

Caller: Yes, I need 50 Slush N Joes, 50 iced coffees...

Me: Are you kidding me?

Caller: No, I'm not, we've got a huge crowd out here and it's hot.

Me: Ok...will that be all?

Caller: No, I'm also gonna need 20 Mocha Freezes.

Me: Ummm...ok....

Caller: How long do you think this is gonna take?

Me: Probably about half an hour.

Caller: Ok, I'll be there then.

Yeah so we kick into high gear, started making Slush N Joes like a mother. We ran out of iced coffee, ended up using hot coffee because it hadn't cooled yet. We went through gallons of ice cream and bottles of flavored syrup. We had to clear out all the coolers to fit the drinks. One of the lead girls from the show (Hilary Burton? Does that sound right?) came to pick up the drinks....after 10 minutes. We weren't even close to being done. Anywho...we were sweating profusely and so exhausted. They ended up spending $481. They tipped us which was nice but nothing was worth the hassle. Good times I say. Slash not.

Well, back to Law and Order I go. TGIF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HELLO BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!! It's been pretty good so far. I had an 8am class this morning and barely dragged myself to it. It was painful to me. Worse was that the professor only kept us for 15 mins, so basically I got up and out for nothing. I went and got my books with Christine and then came home and slept for an hour or so. Headed over to my parents house to get my computer fixed and now am watching "How to lose a guy in 10 days" - one of my favorite movies of all times. I know, it's pathetic, I should be out going crazy but to be honest, spending a day doing nothing is the best day I could ever have. I've been out of my mind working 56 hours plus school and the new roomie situations, I am loving relaxing a bit. Tonight I am going out to a super nice restaurant on the water with the fam, Natalie, Heather and Christine - all the roomies together. It'll be awesome. My dad told me I'll love my presents. I CAN'T WAIT to see what they are.

I can't believe it's been a year since I moved here. It feels like so much longer. Several years maybe. So much has happened. I miss MD. I miss my friends. I miss my life. But I guess all things must change, that's a part of life. I'm just glad it's my birthday. For one day, I can pretend I'm a little kid again and be as giddy and silly and crazy as I want. It's my birthday. Cuz don't you know -you can do whatever you want on your birthday.

Hello world!!!!! I'm back...and looking fabulous!

I've been pretty incapacitated for the past few days, going in and out of conciousness and sleep. The pain meds are intense and really knock me out. I'm still feeling pretty groggy but at least I'm relatively functional. I still have some healing to do but I'm gonna look great. I'm so excited...
