OFFENDED I SAY!!!! OFFENDED!!!!!

Well, why should I NOT be??? My mom makes a stupid comment about people who comment by e-mail don't think!!!! SHE'S NUTS!!!! (in real life she is, you just don't get to see it like I do :P ). Anyway, here is her exact comment...AND I QUOTE: "It has been said people who send comments by e-mail don't think." PUH! What she doesn't realize is that many people who comment by e-mail are smart and intelligent (unlike her due to this little comment she has made). You see, we just don't have enough time to talk on the phone, or messengers (generally unless you're avoiding a research paper like me!!!). Therefore, commenting is the easiest way to go because that way it's quick, simple and to the point. To say that we are stupid for commenting and that's it, well, that's just...BIASED!!! Okay, maybe not the word I was looking for, but hey, it blows my mind!!!! Hehehe, oh I just love having fun on this blog at times. So sorry all, but it was a VERY crazy day at work and well, quite frankly, I'm out of it. Perhaps I need to go to the hospital and get some psychotropic meds to knock me out for a few days so I can be back to my normal self. In all reality though, the comment is quite offensive if you think about it!!!! Hmm, I wonder how I can blackmail her NEXT!!!! *snickers*

OKAY, enough of that. Here is the quickie update on me. I was working today so as you can tell that is why I was not at the reunion. Besides, working with the youth is SO much fun (NOT!!!! Actually it depends what day it is and how they are--today was CRAZY!!!). On top of that, I am just plain exhausted from work. Too bad you don't have Facebook. You all could look and see my exhausted picture that I chose for my mood. Oh, but I'm not searchable on Facebook--or I hope not to be. LOL.

School is coming along quite well. I'm avoiding a stupid research paper though for Organizational Behavior. Ugh, stupid papers. I just want to hide in a hole and away from the Meepits (on Neopets--evil petpets that want to take over Neopia and the world--okay a virtual pet site and it's oodles of fun :-) ) and NEVER be found again (so I can avoid the dumb papers). I mean really, we're adult learners for pity sakes. We've all been to college before (or most of us) and have learned how to write a paper. So WHY in the world do we have to do it now? Now I could see a traditional college or university, but not a non-traditional one!!! Anyway, I'm working on my 10 page paper on self-efficacy and organizational behavior. It's kind of hard to find information on it, but I'm slowly going at it!!! Almost done researching it to :-). Management class is going quite well also. I'm working on a project. That reminds me, I need to see if my classmates got my e-mail :-).

To clarify, I'm not a Business major at all. Dumb Doane College in GI added Criminal Justice this coming fall (W00t!). The downer is that I have to do Organizational Behavior and Management for the degree to graduate. And get this, Randy told me that I have enough if not more than necessary courses in Criminal Justice. Stop!!!! I've only had *counts on fingers* six courses in Criminal Justice either at CCC or UNK. Add 1 more this fall from UNK via satellite and I have seven. So Randy tells me that the majority of my classes are going to be Psychology/Sociology courses. Wait a minute!!! It's a Criminal Justice major. Yes, those are important, but shouldn't we be focusing on Criminal Justice courses here??? Sorry, I really AM out of it. Yikes!!! So anyway, I'm going to go back to CCC once I get done with my degree at Doane in Criminal Justice and Human Relations and get my Associates. That way, I can say that I have a background in Criminal Justice with courses :-). Oh yes, and I graduate next May (supposedly) with my Human Relations degree!!! Yippee!!!! Then it's off to the real world for me!!! (FINALLY!!!!)

Uh work is crazy like today. LOL. But umm, we are short staffed right now and so I've been called in on my weekends off. Actually, this was my weekend to work. I have worked the past I don't know how many weekends straight. With today being so chaotic, I think that it's Sunday when it's really Saturday. *Yawns* I'm REALLY out of it right now. My fingers are just typing randomly right now if you ask me. Anyway, I have to say no on weekends for awhile when they're my days off because I got held for 15 hours a couple of weekends ago (or was it last week???) Anyway, I worked from 0630-1500 for my regular shift and then was told around 1400 that I would be staying for overtime. I frantically looked for someone to take my spot, but no one would OR come in early on the night shift. Damn! So then I get stuck there until 2200 instead of 2300. But at 2100 I went home and had a mental breakdown due to exhaustion (both physically and mentally). I hate overtime because I'm the least seniority generally and that makes ME the one who gets stuck working overtime. Union contract says least seniority stays. UGH! But hey, on the bright side, my paycheck was quite HEFTY!!!! *snickers and rolls around in my money--okay, not really, I have to pay bills (so who wants to take over my cell phone bill and Gordmans credit card bill, Herbergers bill, Sears bill??? *points finger at my mom* *snickers some more*) So that's what's been going on there. And yes, I'm looking for a new job because I can't stand working 15 hour shifts. My supervisor is aware of this though and so is the unit manager. So we'll see what happens.

Umm, okay, I think I have said what I've wanted to say. Blackmailing my mom was the main point of this whole mumbo jumbo. Anyway, I think I need a mini nap now. So I will go to sleep and rest. Watch, then I won't sleep tonight. It never fails. Anyway, off I go to pester my cats for a few minutes and then sleep. Ta ta for now. As I look back on what I type, YUP, I'M REALLY OUT OF IT.
