Definitely Got A Case of the Mondays
Yeah, I watched Office Space over the weekend, so I'm definitely not in the mood for a Monday morning. But of course I won't say anything like that, you can get your ass kicked for saying something like that. I'm just tired. I haven't been getting a good nights sleep in a long while and I think its all Keyser's fault. The bastard keeps waking up at 5 AM, insisting on going to the bathroom, being fed, bathroom again and then we go back to sleep, by which time, if I'm lucky I get an extra 45 minutes of sleep. I think thats killing me. And I thought he was going to be exhausted big time last night and actually let me sleep. Wrong.
We had him out on the deck and by the pool, fenced in of course, all afternoon. He was running all over the place. Mark was in the pool and splashing around, taunting him. Keyser would run to the edge of the pool and bark in Mark's face. Sometime he'd jump in after him, a couple of times he slipped and fell in and he would just swim out by the stairs, get out of the pool, shake off and then jump on either myself or Randy, while we were trying to relax and get some sun. I thought for sure he'd be wiped, and he was, he passed out and slept, until about 4 AM when he had to go outside. Then 5 AM it was time for food. Then 6 AM my alarm clock went off.
Add into account that I went out with my friends Saturday night, didn't get to bed until well past midnight and had to wake up at 6 to go into work for five boring hours of testing things. It sucks, but the only other alternative is making Keyser sleep in his cage on the other side of the house, and I would just feel too bad doing something like that. We'll see though, I'll have to think of something because this is getting out of control. Hell, I am so looking forward to going away, just so I can get a decent nights sleep without the pooch waking me up.
I need to book my hotel for Scotland soon. I'm waiting on a response from Elena's friend and that may mean I'm waiting forever. If I don't hear anything by the end of today or tomorrow at the earliest, I'm just going to book it because it looks like a decent hotel right in the middle of the action in Edinburgh. I really can't wait to get away. Only two and a half weeks away. I miss Elena and especially more now that things are much better between us. She sent me a sweet e-card the other day and that made me feel good. I don't know, I just miss her and feel like if she'd be here we could take our relationship to the next level, whatever that is, but instead we're both just idling until she gets back. I hope that she really does come home in September or October. I don't think I could handle it if she didn't. We've been doing this long distance thing for almost a year and its really starting to wear on me. But deep down inside I know I'll be able to stick it out, because I know she's worth it.
Something weird happened to her the other day though. She was at her new job, working as a waitress in a cafe on the south bank of the Thames, close to Big Ben and Parliament and the London Eye and she had fish for lunch. There must've been something wrong with it because she said she had a horrible allergic reaction, to the point where they brought her to the hospital and had to give her antihistamines and other drugs through an IV. Scary stuff. But she says she's better and even went back to work yesterday and worked for 12 hours. Crazy.
Alright, back to work and back to the Mondays. Hope everyone else has a better day. I'm just hoping I make it through this one.
