It's been a crazy weekend.
Friday: wake up, do homework, go hang out with the ladies. Go to work. Go get so drunk I don't remember what happened really yet. Then go home, apparently beg more than one friend for a booty call before falling asleep in my clothes. Wake up with alarm to go to work during the FIRST SNOW STORM of the season. Go balls-deep shopping with my mom. Buy girly hats and mittens and boots. Mom and I went to Old Navy. Yeah. OLD NAVY. Wow.
Go to hockey game. Have a fucking blast!!!! So much socialization and yet I didn't really want it to end. What's happening to me???
Today: wake up, get coffee and printer ink, arrive home to find out that Grandpa came home from China yesterday and we are to go visit him. So my folks and I do. We get to sit through a slide show of the last month he spent as an ambassador for St. Cloud State University to Nankai and Binhai. Apparently at one luncheaon, the entertainment was for the chef to come out, blindfolded, and chop vegetables on the bare back of a server with a very sharp knife. No joke.
Then we got Chinese food. Yummy! Then it was off to see the movie Unstoppable. My mom loves distaster thrillers. I love stuff getting wrecked. My dad loves to laugh at bad acting. We all enjoyed ourselves.
Trip to the craft store to get yarn and an outfit for my father's finger bandage. Yes. Pictures will soon be posted, but suffice it to say there are now glow-in-the-dark googly eyes glued to my father's thumb cast.
Went to work. Had my boss listen in on ALL my calls in the last hour to help determine why the list I was calling was having such a poor conversion rate. Turns out I was doing mostly right things, but I wasn't assertive enough with getting pledge cards confirmed to mail out. So I got better. Then I hit the keyboard during a call, accidently hung up, and had to redail and apologize. Ugh. It's a bit nerve racking having your boss listen from across the room and send pop-up messages on your monitor DURING calls telling you what to do. But I learned a lot. At least I made three bucks in bonus.
Then I got let go 10 minutes early which was JUST enough time to get back in time for the 9pm airing of The Walking Dead. It was pretty awesome. But I'm feeling like there are just too many jerk-off rednecks that are going to survive the apocoplypse. I also got an email that there is one less test I have to worry about this week.
All in all, I've done a shit-ton of shit in the past three days. This is like, six months of socializing and out-of-my-room behavior for me. I'm tired and feeling a bit stressed now that I sit back. I think I'll just polietly decline any more outings until the next home men's hockey game in December.
