  • its my weekend!

    Yayyy no work... dont mistake that yay for enthusiastic though, i dont have the energy to muster any after work today. I keep telling my trainer i am burned out. she thinks it an endurance think. Hell to the no. its a "i hate feeling stupid all day long " thing. Listen up lady, i worked 50 hours a week between 2 or three jobs, always with more than the rquired course load for 4 years of college and i came out fine. i can handle a stupid 8 hour shift or even *gasp, horror* overtime!cue dramatic music. seriously, i am not a pussy. i am just sick and fucking tired of this job. so 2 days off- bliss.

    made a smoothie tonight that was absolutely aweful. so bad made me sick. dunno what went wrong.

    um, basically just tired a depressed tonigth. no groceries really, no money, no kate. emd training next week then i can answwer 911 but i really dont want to be in kc alone by myself for 3 days. i wish someone was going with me. this effing sucks.

    ready to sleep, wish i had some mcdonalds... just sounds good

  • Unrealistic Expectations for Xanga

    I guess I should have be more realistic. I used to blog with lots of blogrings of ppl i knew. Roommates, college friends, classmate. And I used to get a few comments here or there, even if just from my roomie while i was in the room with her.

    Now i have an anonymous blog, and a blog ring full of people I dont know except for that we have some common interest - hence being in  the same ring. I guess I though people would read my blog, comment, I would comment back, and from there perhaps form a bit of a pseudo friendship slash support group slash blog buddy kind of thing. You know, the occasional pat on the back or pick me up via weblog, an aknowledgement that every now and them someone reads this and maybe has a though or argument or bit o advice.

    Well, I was dead wrong about all that clearly, as I have not had one single unsolicited comment on this thing ever, even if its just been a week. I read other peoples, comment, but I guess I get nothing.

    Just a though...

    College students moving back equals loud drunks outsside. I want a bottle of wine and a good cry. I wish Kate was home even though i would just be mean to her...

  • Blog from work...

    Kill me now. Can I quit? Cause I don't think I can handle anymore....

  • Day 4

    It's pretty much a normal day in kitty-ville, wrestle mania under the quilt. Just got home from taking kate back to camp and once again i am wallowing is self pity about work. I hate it. I hate my job, truly. Its such a conflicting situation, I know I can be good at this job, and that a year from now I will love it. But right now I am miserable, and thats not going to change anytime soon. I wont feel comfortable for a year or two they say, and right now I feel completely stupid everyday. Every instinct I have is wrong, I ask for help and they say to look it up, I take to long to do something because I am looking it up and someone tells me what to do just to hurry me along. I miss what the officers are saying which is dangerous, what if they tell me they are arresting someone and I miss it and then suddenly there is a shoot out. My trainer says I take criticism poorly. I think I take 8 hours of critism for 4 months straight just about as well as I can. I cant quit, it took me months to get this job and it pays enough to start me on my feet again, i am in massive debt. but i hate it, i want to die when I am there, just crawl in a corner and die. I find myself thinking about it constantly, quitting, and then not being able to pay bills, how miserable it will feel to go back tomorrow, i've never felt this bad in my entire life. i dont know what to do. I dont want to hurt anyone, or leave my kitty-boys alone, or someone else with my debt, i just want a way out. a way to support myself and my family and not be miserable, and well, suicidal. because i guess thats what i am, thats what you call someone who fantasizes about dying, who wants to give up, who cant stant they very idea of getting out of bed, leving the house, breathing. i want to come home, get drunk, and just keep slipping away and never have to think about life again. no work. no kate going back to england. no bills and 800 numbers. no trainers telling me i am wrong, no radio traffic, no emergency calls from stupid people who think a guy peeing on their house is an emergency, no more feeling stupid and overwelmed and unaccomplished. i hate my life, i hate being this depressed, i know i need help and i dont know where to get it. i guess i am just done

    Um food...

    no time to eat, well, actually there was time for fast food nad junk but i had none. a couple smoothies, on green smoothie, a banana berry one, and then kate brought me dinner at work, a chicken wrap from applebees, luckily she got there during a good hour and i was able to eat in peace. an hour later i was dreaming about sinking into my chair, and hour after that i was crying in front everyone while my trainier lectured me on eveyrhting i was dong wrong followed by a lecture on stress managment and how i would get better eventually ie a year from now if i dont quit or kill myself by them. both likely options after a day like today.

    oh a kate says she has been having dreams about me leaving her. great.

  • Day 3, and green smoothies

    Another day, but not such a good one...

    Breakfast: slept through it

    Lunch: Got takeout,. brisket sandwich and fries with ice tea

    Dinner: 2 celery stalks, 1 green apple, 1.1/4 c blueberries, half a red plumb, 1/3 c PB

    Snack: 6 oreos and soy milk... oo AND a Pibb earlier at some point.

    So not the best day ever. I am not really weighing myself officially except once a week, but i do hop on every day just out of curiousity and I was heavier today than yesterday. Might be a coincidence but I still felt a little bad.

    On another note, I have been reading up about green smoothies as they seem like a good take to work option. I work 2nd shift at the PD which means I work 8 hours, but those 8 hours are from 3-11pm. Uusally when I work a normal day, aka morning and afternoon, I bring breakfast and lunch both with me to work, eat the first a 7am, then lunch around noon, then maybe a snack around 3 when I get off. But this new shift is a little off, I eat a noon, and not again until maybe 7 or 8pm, and then i still want a snack when i get off work. I think bringing a green smoothie might be a a good way to tide over until dinner.

    Basics of a green smoothie: 3 handfuls of green veg like spinich, lettuce, celery - a couple handfuls of fruit like a whole banana, apple, pear, mango - add a little water to thin, or for a not completely fruit/veg option add some vanilla yogurt or (soy/almond/skim) milk.

    Well, I think I am gonna try that, which mean a quick trip to the store for some more leafy greens as well as to my moms to borrow the blender, she doenst us it much anyway! :)

    EDIT EDIT EDIT --------

    Yea, so I made my smoothie and - well - not quite yum. Next time, more fruit needed. I'm not a massive sweet tooth and i love veg, but it was pretty bland and i think needed more sugar. So, 1/2 grn apple, 1/2 banana, big handful of spinich, 1 celery stalk, and a big swish of soy milk is not good enough. Maybe yogurt instead of soy milk?

    Onb another note, Kate is bringing me dinner at work, not sure from where but I am sort of hoping for the oriental chix wrap I love so much! Ymmy!!!!
