i’d be lying if i said today wasn’t shitty

give me credit: two posts in a row

i like lists.  lists give things order, purpose. lists make sense of things that otherwise, don’t belong together. here is my list for the day, of all the things that sucked:

1. i woke up sick, i.e. fever and sore throat

2. i had work at 8am

3. i was stuck on phones all day which would have been fine except that i couldn’t get anyone to cover my breaks and it took me an hour to find someone to watch the line while i peed

4. the only class i wanted to take in the fall got cancelled

5. our printer doesn’t work

6. i made two sets of plans and both got cancelled

7. i am too sick to go to the gym

8. i have the chills and i am hot and cold at the same time

9. some creepy guy on the phone asked me to laugh for him

10. nobody even reads this journal

i know it could be worse.  but today was miserable. i really want to sit down with my guitar and strum it out but i am far too tired and achey. a certain best friend of mine should be home soon to rub my head and paint my nails.

i am currently taking recommendations for new music.  if you read this, send me some of your favorites of the moment on facebook.
