Posting for the sake of it
Jun. 11th, 2004 08:09 pmIt's been a week since my last post so I thought I had better write something in case people think I've died. So the drivel is behind a cut
There have been days this week when I wish I had. Died that is.
I had a lovely rest full week off, marred only by thistle giving my finger a curious bite. It had to be only curious, if she had ment it she would still be hanging on. I would swear hamsters are related to ferrets, they have the same habit of biting to the bone and hanging on if they are in their *evil* mode. I was my fault anyway, I was playing with her after disecting a cooked chicken and my hand must have smelled of it, she only wanted a taste.
Any how, I get back to work and my arthritis decides to go through an acute period, and of course mine is mostly in my legs and I'm on my feet for 5-7 hours a day, hence the wish to die. I have a choice at these times to be brain dead from painkillers or brain dead from lack of sleep because the leg ache keeps me awake. I alternated.
Then we have the heat wave, a library that was built in the 70s and lacks air conditioning, windows that don.t let in any breeze because the open into what ammounts to a light well and the heat out put of 22 computers( two on the staff desk and a further 20 less than 3ft away, what few brain cells the painkillers had left me melted.
Am I glad the week is over and I have 2 whole days, yes count them 2, to relax. That means doing the housework, shopping washing and gardening. I need to win the lottery jackpot but some one up there hates me.
