"Just Another Manic" Friday
September 6, 2002

It's Friday! It means I have class today! Except my car is down, I'd have no trouble going to class and back. But since it's being a lemon at the moment, I have to depend on my mother's car. Beth has piano lessons today after school and Nicki has to work! So of course, today will be hectic! *Sigh*

News bulletin: In case you haven't noticed, I am depressed! I'm trying to fight it. Just let me write, ok? I'm just glad to be on the computer instead of sleeping in like I really did want to do. After all, it's taking me a while to type this up since I'm reading, too.

After I get off the computer, I need to clean my face like I did yesterday. I washed my face with the anti-bacterial soap I had to use, then rubbed lotion all my face, then placed some anti-bacterial cream on my face. I like to do that before I go to school. Just because the rest of my life is in chaos, doesn't mean my face needs to reflect it. *Razzing My Tongue*

And now, the "Friday Five":

1. What is your biggest pet peeve? Why? People that don't clean the toliet after they use it! Is it so hard to flush? I'm not your mother, you know! Flush it on your own! The sad thing is there are still adult women that won't flush the toliet!

2. What irritating habits do you have? Besides being a bitch? After all, that's probably what I got fired for! *Angry* *Rolling My Eyes* People think I ignore them when we're together. Actually, it's just that I'm really shy

3. Have you tried to change the irritating habits or just let them be? Yes, I have. I held back my temper at work for just about 2˝ years until I had had enough with H's attitude and when she attacked me first, I lashed back out. I had had enough! Then on August 2nd, I got fired and they decided to keep some that's rude to the clients. I think I mentioned that problem as far back as February 24th with a post called "My Weekend" and on February 25th in a post called "Hostile Enviroment". They were blind to the real problems, I guess, and just figured I was the problem. However, the real problems at that office are still going on! I hope they didn't make it to 60 cases in August! Ok, enough about that now. I am STILL bitter about it all. And that is why I'm depressed.

4. What grosses you out more than anything else? Why? I hate eggs. I don't know why but keep them away from me. I don't want to see or smell eggs.

5. What one thing can you never see yourself doing that other people do?Uprooting and moving away from my family. I admire people like that. Richard Marx and Faith Hill, heck even Logan did it - moving far away at a young age. I wish I had the nerves and faith to have been able to even make it in Atlanta. I would have been only 4 hours from my parents and 4 hours from my grandparents. As I was watching the Oakland baseball game the other night, I was thinking how nice it must be to live in an area where at night at this time of year, it's long sleeve weather. You can never get that type of weather here in Suckannah. *Sigh* Hey now, if I had the money and the car and a job, I think I might be able to pull it off, now! Yeah, right!

As I've been writing this, I have had A New Day Has Come on the CD player. The song "Ten Days" came on. This lyrics fit my life perectly at this moment:

Ten days I've seen the rain
Comin' down on a sunny day
But all I've got to do is
Pray and pray
And pray
I will pick up the pieces in time. I know it. I have got to feel it. *Smile*
