Meant to post this earlier this week…

 

Wow. It's been a LONG couple of weeks. Started off by not sleeping much on Monday night. Which might have to do with my sleeping schedule messed up from having Brittany spend the night on Saturday. I think it was the fact that I was so relaxed (I feel better when I have someone sleeping with me… truly sleeping, not sexually), I wanted to keep sleeping the whole morning.

On a side note, I might have made a mistake… While cuddling in the morning, she'd semi kissed me because I'd been giving her pecks on the back of her neck and shoulder all night (cuz I tend to do that) and I gave her a peck quite close to her mouth, I think. Well, I started kissing her.

I think she was in that half-dozing mode and she just went with it. Later, when she was fully awake, things were… different. LOL. I was half-awake too. Normally, I wouldn't do anything.

Anyway, Monday, I worked a long day (like I have been for the last couple weeks). That night, I couldn't really sleep much, though. Tuesday, I didn't work much, since we had some BS company meeting that was a picnic that I didn't want to go to. I went to bed early so I could wake up at 2am on Wednesday morning to get to the Airport Parking place by 3am (needed time to shower and put my stuff in the car).

So that started off my saga. Next was waiting for the plane to allow us to board. There were some other passengers that had such an air of entitlement… One person was upset that the Starbucks stand wouldn't open up 30 mins early for her. Another one was mad because the seats had arm-rests, so she couldn't lay down and sleep (while I understand the sentiment, she took it as if it was a personal affront). And, the best, was when a woman asked the maintenance people to dim the lights to the terminal. REALLY?!

Anyway, the flight itself was alright. They had a towncar pick me up and I felt kind of ostentatious. When I checked in, I was a bit surprised. They put me in one of the presidential suites. It had a freak'n grand piano in it. Felt like a freak'n king.

The week wasn't without drama. Our idiot "leader" has a follower that, unfortunately, is higher on the Org chart than I am. And this person created drama (involving me) that was basically bullshit. And to be honest, that ruined my whole stay there.

But, in any case, it was great to see some people that I hardly get to see, since they're in the field. The really cool thing is seeing all the people that were involved or "in the know" standing behind me. They'd pull me aside all week and tell me that they supported me and to stand strong. It was a beautiful thing.

When I got home, I asked Brittany to come over. I really wanted that peace of having someone around to just hang out. I fell asleep a couple times, and when she finally left, I passed out. I didn't wake up until noon the next day. I was so out of it.

This week have sucked, so far. I'm so annoyed I'm not even going to write about it. But I guess the only comfort I have is that if I bide my time, the issues that are pissing myself will be fixed. I just hope I can last until then.
