im a 5ft (still debatable), twenty-something geek who loves Jesus and likes taking pictures of the food i eat & the people i love. i make a living typing on a computer keyboard, selling polyresin gnomes and joke telling on the side.

It’s Friday….and although I don’t get to sleep in—I’m just so happy not to have to go into the office today. I lost my cool yesterday at work and I let the frustration build up until I couldn’t hold it in anymore. I know I’m lucky to have Fridays off, but after 4 straight 10 hour days—I need the 3 days to reset and come back to work on Monday with a better attitude. I’ve always been one to go above and beyond. I am never asked to do it—I just do it. Unfortunately, people start to expect it as my normal and that’s when the stress and pressure sets in. My boss was pressuring me all day yesterday to make me work this weekend. I would love to just say, “NOOOOOOOOOO!” but these deadlines can’t/won’t wait. But I’ll save the work for Saturday & Sunday. Today is my rest day.
Oh well, I’m about to go get my butt kicked my trainer (6 pounds downs as of this morning) and that always helps. Then I’m off to babysit Baby Brandon for the afternoon and then catch a movie and dinner with Daniel in Pasadena. I finally get to check out ArcLight theaters and wander Colorado Blvd. eating to my heart’s content (It’s my cheat day!) Like TJ’s Peanut Butter Cup Moment for the day says, I’m going to have a little fun today and enjoy life!
