Mental Health Day

In my almost 29 years of existence...I've never felt the need for one...but today, I needed it.  I woke up feeling bleh...

 

SO, I called in sick.  This is a little bit harder when you work for a little old lady and she still needs someone to take care of her...luckily, I'm not the only help she has.

 

I enjoyed my Mental Health Day.  I think my sister/roommate thought I was sick.  But, I wasn't.  I cleaned, and played video games, and watched the last 5 episodes of "Legend of the Seeker" that I've missed...(DVR can be so nice sometimes!)

*Side note*  Craig Horner makes it easy to watch that show! 

 

Well...my Mental Health day is almost over...off to read a little "New Moon" before I go to bed.

@Coulow... do you make people laugh often? You crack me up on a daily basis... So...went back to work...felt good...glad I took a rest day. I felt a little stupid tho' because I get weekends off...but I swear, being a private caretaker is emotionally draining...that's the hard part. I can take the physical drain fine...

Sounds like fun! That's why I only work PT. Give me a day with that guy, I'll give him a reality check or my foot in his ass. I would send him back to the trenches with a nice BE on a big 'ole ass and only the tip that comes in the BE bag. Watch that MF swim in shi-at!

Is the Egyptian the male co-worker or the female co-worker? There was an egyptian chick who worked at the Jack-in-the-box by my house and man was she a hottie. Have a great day off dude, sounds like you deserve it.

PS by 'great day off' I mean blow everything else off for a couple hours and veg out in front of the Xbox. Is that bad advice? Maybe...but it's heartfelt. You've already been working all day!

YAY!!! Everyone needs one. Vacations are never taken. People are workaholics. *sniff** I'm so proud of you!
