I'm so stressed that even yoga isn't helping me relax tonight. I did manage to get some food in me though, so hopefully the shakes will go away. Today was very long and I was not very motivated at work. I just didn't want to be there at all. I am nervous about the interview, so the added stress of that has just zapped every ounce of patience and energy from me. I want to write a post for the Inn, but I'm having a lot of trouble focusing on anything that deals with using brain cells. It's a shame that Drachenfels goes down soon, I'd play UO a bit if it didn't. I just hate the timewarps and whatnot that seem to always happen when I play before they update. My internet connection is being wacky anyways, so playing wouldn't be a good idea, even if I could. It's really messing up with icq as well. The cable modem sure is nice...when it works correctly. blah. Tomorrow, I'm going to Vicki's place to work on my interviewing skills. I'm really happy she's going to help me!

I think I'll go nap now.

Vicki ordered the tickets for the concert, so we're definitely going. It will be cool to get away from home! I have only gotten away from home a couple times in the past ten years. It sucks. I want to take Dylan to the beach for a day or two since we haven't gone in a long time. Gods, I'd have to bathe in spf 30, I'm so pale from the lack of sun exposure. I worked nights for three years and never went out in the sun. Now that I work during the day, I get out in the sun during my breaks. I actually have tan lines on my fingers because I wear rings. The rest of me is terribly pale though. Blah. But then, pale is also a good thing. My skin is in better shape and looks much younger than someone who maintains a tan all the time. Hmm. Have a tan or stay looking young? I definitely chose the latter.

Yoga class was great tonight, I feel really good right now and there's not much pain. I actually left the class with less pain than I had when it started. I could hardly move when Vicki came over before class. I wish I hadn't fallen off that horse when I was 14. This pain has been with me for 15 years! It's not constant like it used to be. It hurt constantly and was actually worse when I worked at a job where I had to stand the entire shift. I had to stay in one spot and did a lot of leaning and shifting my weight onto my hips, which caused the horrid back pain. Walking helps ease the pain and the yoga has improved my back's strength greatly. I'm thinking of taking Dylan to a class, he's a well behaved kid and likes to do the movements, so I'm sure he will be just fine there. Our teacher is really awesome and allows children to come, as long as they behave and don't interrupt the class.

I'm soo sleepy now, so I'm going to get myself to bed before I pass out right here.

Well, I took the test today and thought I did horrible. I was fine with access, I completed that part in under 10 minutes. I had trouble with Word because I've never had to do stuff with the margins, so those were kinda bad. Well, about an hour after getting back, I received an email from the posting coordinator stating that I have an interview with two people in HR on Monday! Yay! That means I passed! Yay! I'm so happy!

Today went by pretty fast as well, that was an added bonus. I had fondue for dinner and now I'm going to watch some movie. After that I shall write a bit and then SLEEP!

Oh, and I'm going to the Tori Amos concert with Vicki on Oct 6 in DC! Yay! I haven't listened to Tori, other than the cd that Vicki burned for me several months ago. I liked it, so this should be cool! :)

I'm lacking a lot of sleep, hungry, and my feet hurt. I spent an hour and a half on access today after work, so I think I have enough knowledge to pass the test, I hope. I have to get up early tomorrow to work on a project, then I have the test at 1 pm. Ugh, then I have to go back to work and finish 9348793457 other things as well. Yuck. Soo, after dinner and writing, I'm going to sleeeeeeeep!

Hmm. What are some good things that happened today? Well, it didn't rain today and it wasn't *too* hot outside. My cats and son were happy to see me when I got home. I don't have to cook dinner and my house is somewhat clean. My siamese cat is being very lovable and affectionate. *note to self: trim the cat's claws.* My new cat, Alexis, is stalking Cloie and being goofy as usual too. Dylan is watching his dad play Heart of Winter and making lots of comments, thus annoying his dad. *giggle*

Now it's my 'relax and think about nothing bad' time. Let's see if I can do just that.

I finally grew tired of Xanga and most of the negativity. Yes, there are a lot of great weblogs, but the depressing ones just ended up getting to me. So perhaps I will make my home here for now. I'm not sure what I will do as of yet. At least I got rid of the other colors. I liked them, but not here.

I stayed home today and slept. Being sick all night really drained me and there was no way I could deal with work. Tomorrow I have to go and learn access and powerpoint. I have been a slacker with learning them and really need to learn them because I have a test on them at 1 pm on Wednesday. Yuck. I am posting for the data coordinator job in some other department. We'll see how it goes. It's a level up and a nice increase in salary too...I need both!
