So apparently it takes calling in sick to be able to post again.
I am ... somewhat employed. By which I mean that I'm working at one of the local potato factories by way of a temp agency. So I am *working*, but not necessarily permanently employed. Which is one of the many reasons I haven't been around lately.
I've been working at this place for just over two weeks now. We have a rotating schedule, which SUCKS, because it means I work a certain shift long enough to get my body adjusted to it, have a day off, and then work at a completely different time. (Currently, I'm working 4:00pm-12:00am.) The work itself is boring and monotinous, 'cause I spend a lot of time pulling rotten potatoes off a conveyorbelt. Or cleaning. Which really just means I have a lot of time to let my mind wander into dangerous areas.* Occasionally I do manage to plot stories, but it's hard to work on them when I only have breaks, 'cause I'm pretty exhausted by the time I get home.
Last week though, was The Week From Hell. Possibly even THE WEEK FROM HELL.
( In which I rant. A lot. )
Sorry for the ranting to anyone brave enough to read it. I haven't really had a chance to vent yet, and I'm still pretty pissed. >.<
As for why I'm home today, I have a really bad head cold combined with nausea and cramps. I was trying to convince myself to go in anyway before the dizziness made me almost faceplant and I decided there was no way I'm working around heavy machinery like this. I'm thinking I either caught it from sister-in-law, or just from all the stress. Possibly the weather.
I'm going back to saving fanfics to my flashdrive so I can curl back up in my bed and read. I think I'm in another brotherly/family fluff mood, which is the only explanation I can come up with for why I'm looking at The Outsiders fanfiction. (I hated that book. >.O) I'm also browsing anything with Bruce Wayne and Dick Greyson (because Philippa is awesome and evil and addictive), and some Harry Potter. Maybe Harry Potter/Gundam Wing. Or Chonicles of Narnia. They have good fluff.
-Is babbling-
I miss you all SO MUCH and I love you! ♥
* My first day was spent trying to imagine what Zhane would do if he worked there. Which turned out to be complain about hairnets, and then somehow I had the mental image of him sticking forks into a pair of potatoes and making them do the can-can. Another day I was incredibly tired, and started plotting the Teenage Mutant Katate Potatoes, Villains of the Harvest. I decided on shapes, and was working on names and a theme song. (Yeah. IDEK. o.O)
