Sickness

Posted on May 17th, 2008 in Everyday by ladylore

I didn’t make it to my meetings on tuesday. I didn’t even make it to work on wednesday. I barely made it through the day on thursday. Friday was an off and on day. Today… I can’t concentrate on anything. I am extremely out of it. I have a hacking cough, my head is stuffed up.

On tuesday, I went to the doctor especially after I woke up in the morning for work and found I had no voice. The doctor put me on mucinex, antibiotics, steroids, and this sweet ass cough suppressant that I had to sign a narcotics form to get.

Did I happen to mention I have finals this week and have only made it through one?

We’re finally moving into our new office. That’s probably all the exciting news I have now.

I feel like passing out again. I think I’m going to go do that.

Monday morning blues. It’s been a long day made irritating because I’m sick. I have decided that my Sweetheart is no longer allowed kiss me or touch me if he is sick. He came back from Afghanistan hacking up a lung. And, take a guess at what I’ve been doing all day. My whole body aches and my throat actually feels swollen. I love you honey, but I must draw a line from now on, no matter how much I find myself missing you.

I ended up staying at work way longer than I had wanted to be. As the day progresses I feel worse and worse, which increases my irritation and impatience with things. AutoCAD decided to act up on me, which was the final straw for the day.

My greatest enjoyment today was to stand in close proximity to people and attempt to hack up a lung. My ma and pa taught me that sharing was caring.

I worked over the weekend and haven’t done much of anything else. I have finals this week so I’ll probably resurface after my brain is no longer cooking.

Our new engineer is failing before he has even begun. We had a brief talk concerning what happened in my last entry and we’re getting along decently. However, a majority of the office is not impressed with him. On top of that, passively talking to one of our clients, he’s stated he doesn’t want the guy on any of his projects. Let’s put it this way… first impressions are important. I’m trying not to say to much to other people on my own feelings. I’d rather get to know the guy and hope he proves everyone wrong that he DOESN’T fall into the typical sterotype of “city boy.” Techs outnumber us poor engineers by a couple of 100s.

Anyways…

Robitussin, please be my hero. I must make it to my meetings tomorrow.

First Impressions

Mean a lot. Including what you might say or do. Actions, reactions, speech, etc are all relevant.

Am I rude?

I already admit to being a know-it-all but I always felt that I was a humble know-it-all. I wasn’t an in your face know-it-all. And, yeah, I can be blunt enough that it might be interpreted as rudeness, but I never have been intentionally rude, at least not to coworkers or people I associate with daily.

That so confuses me.

We got a new engineer at work, a few years of experience a head of me, going for his P.E. And maybe he just told me what caused the above rambling to ruffle my feathers and test me. Or maybe he’s confusing me with other people.

I can find so many reasons to justify my so not rudeness!

…can somebody prove me wrong?

As for the new engineer… prissy boy, that’s what I would currently describe him as… let’s hope he proves people wrong. Wait… would writing something like that make me rude?
