Damn Sony

I am a big supporter or Sony products. I have a Sony computer, two Sony digital cameras, Sony CD players, etc. I just like them best. However, I have recently attempted to purchase a telephoto lens to go with my camera. Now, I am the kind of person who reviews each details several time when making a purchase like this. I didn’t want to mess up and have one that won’t work with my camera, or do what I think it’s going to do, or be non-refundable. You can imagine my anger and disappointment when my new lens finally arrived and it required an adapter - despite the fact that my camera was NOT listed in the ones that needed an adapter. I calmed myself down and called Sony to ask. Indeed, I do need an adapter to use this new lens with my camera. But which one do I get. MY STINKING CAMERA WAS NOT LISTED, remember? Ugh. So they tell me which one to get - the Sony guy tells me which one to get. So I get it. It was just delivered. I couldn’t be more angry right now! It is not for my freaking camera. I am so mad right now. Of course, it is the weekend, so there is no one to call. I feel bad for the person who answers the phone on Monday!

Funky, funky

Between the overtime and the freaking shoulder - that is STILL not better, I have just been in a terrible funk. I know it’s a chain of events that are causing my crabby attitude.  My shoulder hurts, resulting in bad sleeping, resulting in skipping the gym, which make me angry and then I rush off to work hours upon hours of the most boring job ever, then come home and feel guilty because my pets want to love me and I want them to leave me the F alone and then I go to bed and start it all over again.

I’ve never had an injury like this - where you just get so irritated that you can’t do stuff. Usually I get sick and then I’m so drugged up I’m out of it and don’t care about much other than my bed. This is completely different and I HATE IT!! I’m still seeing my miracle doctor, but it is just a slow process he tells me. Well, doc, I am not a slow person nor is my life and I have about had it! UGH!  After this post, I will stop complaining about it, it has just consumed me right now. I tried to do the stretches I was given earlier this week…..I ended up laying on my floor crying like a 4 year old who missed her nap. I was just so tired and so upset and so hurting. It was really quite a pathetic moment. I’m better now. I’ve had two days to sleep and do nothing. I go back to the doc on Wednesday. Cross your fingers for me.

I don’t think I’d be in as big of a funk if it was just my shoulder, but I am also working almost 60 hour weeks right now and I hate it.The one biggest perk of being a teacher is that you get summers off. Where’s mine going? I know that I am just packing away money for my move and my new life in IL, but I WANT MY SUMMER. I haven’t gotten a paycheck with overtime yet, but hopefully when I do it will help me kick this funky mood.

I did feel a little better yesterday when I did some online shopping :) I bought myself a 3 inch memory foam mattress thingy at Overstock.com and then made two CD’s with Dawson’s Creek music. I got to pick 14 songs for each cd, the order of the songs, and the label picture and style. Yay!

Hot, itchy, & tired

I vowed to myself that I was going to make updating my blog a priority on the weekends. Now I am sitting here with itchy allergy eyes and cramps. I am sweating, but I refuse to turn the air on this early in the year. I am tired, because my pets don’t believe in weekend sleeping in. I am cranky. And my mind is blank. I am starting to get pissed about it, because I come up with all kinds of great things to blog about during the week!

I have tomorrow off work. I’ll be back then, with my great friends Advil and Benadryl, and hopefully more inclined to entertain you with my random thoughts on life :)

Have a great Sunday!
