Saturday night, ahhhh!

Glad to be home where it's quiet and I can watch a show in peace. Well sorta.

Had a busy day once again. I have decided becoming noticed at work may not have been the best thing to have happen to me. I can't seem to find time to breathe anymore. The only good thing I can see come out of this is I may be on a plane to Florida then on to Vegas shortly there after. I am keeping my fingers crossed on that. We will see.

Discovered today I know absolutely nothing about Dylan. Which could be a good thing depending on who you talk to. I'm not sure about that one yet either. Guess I should spend a minute or two getting to know the people around me, or at least those I would like to have around me. Yeah, so I will get right on that shortly after I save the world and get the grass stains out of my tan slacks.

Hope everyone is having a pleasant weekend. I am now going to watch my movie and enjoy the few hours left until Monday.

Week from hell!

I have had the work week from hell. Monday took the final test for training. Got the top score in the class. Woop-de-do. Tues day we sorta screwed off in class until Corporate ATTBS (American Telephony & Telegraph Broadband Services) showed up to give us the pep talk for product launch. It was kind nice to put a face to the names and voices, I guess. After the pep talk I got a message that said I had to report to H.R. for some meeting. Being the ever optimist that I am I figured I was fired for mucking up that lady's account. I headed over and was put throught the waiting game that H.R. directors are famous for. I was certain I was fired by then. When she and my boss finally came in to get me I was paniced. They picked me up and carted me down the hall to one of the free rooms to talk. Walked in to a room full of people being read a letter of commendation presented to me. Kinda cool. Got the letter, an award, and a shirt. Then we had a little graduation party with cake and non alcoholic champagne. Tuesday afternoon I helped George move an entertainment center and a chair. Went home thinking I would unwind and get myself relaxed enough to get a good night's rest before the hell Wednesday I knew I was bound to have. Sure enough I was awake all frigin' night. Threw myself into a shower at 3:30am and dragged my ass out of the house around 5:30am hoping I wouldn't fall asleep on my way to work. I walked in the door at work and instantly began running my ass off all day. Seems someone forgot to notify the proper people that I have been off LOA for 2 months now so I had no access to the programs I needed to work. I was still set up for Internet Services. Dorks! So my boss had me be the know-it-all gopher all day. I got to run get coffee, make copies, write phone lists for support, and walk the floor helping all the agents who didn't bother to pay attention in class figure out how to do things. When I did finally get to sit down and answer a couple of calls myself I damn near did fall asleep. The boss let me leav a half hour early. Real generous considering I was an hour early getting to work. Went over and chatted with my mom for a bit then went home and cleaned house. I managed to collaps from exhastion around 10:30pm but woke up at 2:30am. Since I have today off I am going to go over and get me some sleeping pills and some valium or something to get this mania under control. If I don't start getting rest soon I will go nuts.
