So this could be a fairly short blog, because I have to start producing cut-ins at 6 AM...I'm getting a little bit of a break because I have to train Josh.  So it gives me a few minutes to catch up on some stuff.

so the interesting thing is I'm all caught up to the point of where I got suspended from work.  The "weekend" I got suspended I ended up going on a drinking binge...not a bad one, but I figured since I had the time I would make the most of things.  In my last blog I talked about meeting Ortega and Chris at Fox and Hound for Chelsea's last day and then went to work.  Saturday after work, we didn't have Women's Warriors so I went home from work and went to sleep.  And slept until about 6 pm or so and then went to Amy and Hollis' for a scrapbooking event at Amy's.  That lasted until around 10 or so and then Micah and I went to Boston's for some dinner and drinks.  Ortega ended up meeting us out and after the 3 of us ate we decided to go to Graham's Central Station for some more drinking and dancing.  I had never been to Granham's Central Station before and actually I found it not that bad.  It looks kind of ghetto and three are some pretty ghetto people that go there, but for the most part it's a pretty cool set up.  there are several different rooms all with different themes...there's a hip hop room that has a Miami beach theme, then there's a cowboy country theme room and apparently there's a 70's disco theme room though I never saw that one.  But the three of us stayed until it closed and then I took the two of them back to their cars at Bostons and we all parted ways.  Which meant I didn't get to bed until around 2 or so...and I had to get up at 7 that morning to go to church and teach my second grade class.

amazing I wasn't that tired at church, not only did I manage to make it up and teach my kiddos and make it to the 10:15 service...but after church I went with Chris, Chelsea, Fred and Hollis and his family to Cracker Barrel for lunch.  The interesting thing was Chelsea was the one who wanted to go to Cracker Barrel and ended up leaving early because she had some school thing to go to.  Fred also left a little early, but the rest of us sat around and talked for a little bit.  Chris and I even stood out in the parking lot for a little before it got too hot for us to stand out there.  From Cracker Barrel I went home and started watching some football and just being at home.  The good thing was the Colts had the Sunday night game, so I sat in my chair and drank beer and watched football.  Of course the Colts beat up on the Cardinals so all in all it was a very good night.

Monday I sat around my house catching up on some TIVO and packing some boxes and stuff like that.  Dallas had the Monday night game that night, so I invited Chris and Chelsea over to my place to watch the game.  The cool thing was Chris made dinner.  Chelsea got to my place first, so us girls sat around and talked until Chris made it.  Once Chris got there he went to work making dinner and then we sat down and watched some football...and drank some beer.  the good thing was the Cowboys actually won, so Chris was happy.  Chelsea ended up leaving before the game was over, but Chris stayed and then once the game was over he left.  Once they left, I stayed up a little bit longer watching some more TV and drank some more beer.

Tuesday was a lot more of the same deal.  I slept in, then sat around my house catching up on TV and packing some more boxes.  since there was no football game that night I went over to Jen and Chris' house for some dinner and laundry.  And since I didn't have to rush home and go to bed or get ready for work, I went home watched some TV and finished off the beer that was in my fridge.  Or drank wine that was in my fridge...I guess it doesn't really matter, the moral of the story was I went home and drank some more. 

The idea was to drink enough that I stayed up pretty late and then slept all day on Wednesday.  Which pretty much was what I did.  I did have to go back to work on Thursday, so i spent a good part of my Wednesday sleeping...but also watched some more TV and did some more packing.  I have to say it kind of sucked getting suspended, especially from a paycheck standard and because I really don't like getting in trouble.  But it was kind of nice to sleep in, to drink and not worry about things, to catch up on all my TV shows I hadn't seen in a while and to start the packing process.  So while it was rough not working and getting punished and stuff like that, I tried to make the most of things.

I certainly felt refreshed going back to work on Thursday...which was a good thing since Balloon Fiesta was kicking off that weekend which meant a long day, a lot of work and a lot of time working in a row.  I don't really remember much about Thursday, except I didn't go to the Bridge that night.  I think that was the Thursday we decided to have Women's Warriors before the Bridge because we couldn't meet on Saturday because of Balloon Fiesta.  if that was the case, then it was my night to teach...which meant we got to enjoy M&M's and it was very interactive.  The reason I didn't go to the Bridge that night was 1) I didn't really sleep too well that day so I wanted to get some more sleep before work and 2) I ended up telling the group and some people from the Bridge that I was moving, which made me a little emotional and I didn't want to cry in front of everyone so I left. 

And on that note, time for me to get back to work...
