Good points Phosy and Boots. They really need to make longer lasting chocolate and put it in much bigger bags! Or they could just find a way for a long term IV system...

Yeah... the crazy things we get amusement from. I figure it's okay to figure it's fun cuz no one died. Plus the Sgt was showing me the vehicles that were involved and the one that was shot up. It was pretty nifty. Yes... I'm strange... I was thoroughly warped after a year and a half of working grave shift at a resort. I have some great stories, though!
How have you been, BugLady?

Well, I did get unto the internet until 2:30pm Hawaii time which means evening for most of you...or at least late afternoon. So you should be awake.

They usually call off vehicle pursuits here really quickly. It does depend on why they are chasing them, of course, but still. We almost aren't even allowed to pursue them. It's crazy. If they get your license plate they will still be able to take some action, but if not... well... you got away.
Well I did my laundry tonight. I have been putting off some of it for a while (the blankets, etc). I filled three triple loader washing machines at the laundrymat! I am glad to have it done, though. Now I can go ahead and start moving some of my stuff and packing it. I figure that I can pack and possibly move most of my small stuff tomorrow after I get up. I have some friends that are going to help me on Wednesday to move the furniture.
I know I'm strange, but I guess I'm curious if anyone else feels this way or not. I am really thankful to have furniture, but I am really disturbed and uncomfortable with the fact that I can no longer physically move my belongings without help. I don't like having to ask for help with stuff. There is just no way I can move some of it alone, though. Thankfully, I have had several people volunteer to help me. That's a huge relief.
How do you deal with someone who drives you absolutely insane? I work with someone who makes me nuts. It's mostly a maturity level issue, and I know that it's my own problem that I'm stuck on this. They are just so immature that it makes me crazy, and therefore I dislike being around them. I feel like I'm working with a 10 year old that constantly needs recognition for the things that they have done and wants me to watch or look at things that I don't find the least bit interesting or entertaining. They can't imagine how I don't find it interesting or entertaining because they do. I think they would be very offended if I told them I didn't care, and I am just not sure what to do. I think that I need to just get over it because in the big picture this is nothing. I don't know why it drives me so nuts. It's like anything they say to me is almost fingernails on a blackboard level of annoying. I know it comes accross in the way I respond to this person, and I don't think that's very good for working with someone, nor do I think it's good for my witness. I am just not sure what to do with this. I prefer to work this shift than any other shift. I am spending about 8.5 hours alone with this person two days a week, and usually spend one more day with them and one other person. I will be spending this entire week alone with this person while I'm working. I have got to move past this.

Ah, Boots, my heart goes out to you. Unfortunately I don't have any answers, except a lot of knee-mail (prayer, don't ya know). There was someone in my life at one point who would frequently phone, natter on about what I thought were totally useless pieces of information. I finally figured out that as soon as I started to talk about myself, she hung up real quick. All she really wanted was a warm body on the other end listening to her. So perhaps try saying. "Would you like to know what I'm really interested in?........" Maybe if you hit it right, it will bore her to tears and she'll leave you alone.

He may have something mentally wrong with him, and he may not have had good training (growing up, I mean).
I say, pray for him, and speak the truth in love.
I have some slight sympathy for him, because I think my old director at my preschool saw me that way. I don't think I WAS that way (at least not that bad)....but she would attack me for stuff that was the EXACT same stuff she let go in the other teachers and when I would try to defend myself she would say I was acting like a 1 year old.
P. S. Maybe he likes you.

I do need to pray for him, and I need to pray for my attitude toward him. I should not feel so completely irritated by anyone like that. That is a me issue for sure.
Seriously tho... he complained for a week because I went to watch my friend's softball game when his wife texted me and asked me to come over there to keep her company. I ended up occupying their 5 year old while she was scorekeeping and he was playing most of the time. I saw this person (the one that is makin me nuts) after my friend's game was over. He complained for a week that I didn't stay to watch his game.
1- He makes me uncomfortable.
2- He drives me nuts.
3- I had already been there for almost a full game and was wanting to go home.
4- He hadn't asked me to watch his game.
5- He is married, and I didn't want it to look weird for many reasons, one of which being his wife is an insanely jealous woman.
6- I didn't want to stay to watch his game.
And... if he does like me... see number 5 above. Plus, I have been concerned that he has possibly hit on me before. I say possibly because I've been made uncomfortable by his comments and actions, but I'm not sure if his intentions were what they seemed to be or if he was just oblivious.
How are you doing Jewels?
