Ms Elizabeth's Journal, 08 October 2013

I'm annoyed today. No apparent reason. Everything is just... annoying. Despite being annoyed I'm doing well. I worked out. I've been eating well. Hubby has bowling tonight so it should be an early night and my 9 yr old says she is going to cook me dinner. She's inspired by masterchef jr. This should be interesting... hopefully I can get my annoyed self in check before I get home.

What's annoying me so far? Class reunions. Mine is coming up. Next week apparently. I and everyone else in our class got this lovely invitation this morning via facebook. Um.. the reunion is in Illinois. I live in New York. Not only does this make it slightly challenging to travel long distance but after hearing the invite.. I really don't want to go. It's in a bar... AGAIN. All of our reunions have been in bars. Not restaurants that also serve beer.. Bars that sometimes serve questionable food. One guy in the class has apparently donated a keg. All drinks or food are on the people that attend. This is an upgrade from the last reunion! That one you had to buy all beer and food and there were hookers standing out front of that location. Seriously? I was so annoyed I unjoined the group on facebook. Not that they will miss me. I moved to a podunk town where everyone grew up together and I joined the party freshman year. I doubt any of them remember me.

My job annoys me. Well not so much my job as my co-workers. Common sense is not used here. I can't make a notation that says.. adding new section and figures. Nope. I have to spend 45 minutes rewriting something someone has given me. Crossing off any numbering and updating it. Spelling out every little tiny change from someone elses markup because???? I'm not sure. Numbering happens automatically. It's not like I have to go in and retype every number. It's not like someone with common sense can't follow what I'm doing. Oh no.. It's busy unnecessary work and then they wonder why nothing gets done around here. When I'm not doing that I'm making and updating reports that NO ONE reads. Why? No clue. Again.. pointless.

I want to go home and talk to cows. They make more sense.

Work annoyance is the worst! Hard to shake off too! Complain to a cow. Their mooo's are always agreement! LOL

Yes, cows do make more sense until they step on your foot. Sorry that you're having a crummy day...hopefully tomorrow will be better. Congrats on getting to the gym! I hope the 9 yr old's dinner is good!

Hope you are in a better mood after you've eaten your gourmet meal!

If it's true that misery loves company, I hope that having FS buddies with similar work situations helps somehow. As for the class reunion, it sounds like you will be glad not to be there - and that, if you had gone, you would have wondered "why?". Maybe you can meet up some time soon with a friend or two from high school - people you actually care about.

I'm not a fan of Class Reunions. In fact I haven't gone to any of them and it's been 36 years. Just missed our 35th which I entertained going to for about a nano second. I graduated in a class of 1100. I stayed in touch with a few people, who I still talk to and consider good friends. The rest I couldn't care less about. I'm not into the bar scene either and I'm guessing to have a reunion in a bar the class was on the smaller side. That seems a rather strange place for a reunion. Well I hope your sweet girl whipped you up a great dinner and your feeling much happier by now!!!
