A Depressing Trek

The last week or so has been a little depressing. First I was told I was over a week behind on a project I didn't know I was supposed to be doing. This was told to me at a meeting where I was given an even more grim view of our store than I normally have. Just what I need to inspire me.

Later I went out with Winter and a new manager at the store. They wanted me to get drunk. I didn't, but I still had some fun. We were supposed to try fishbowls, but they have coconut rum and I don't like coconut at all. So no fishbowl for me. We went out again on Saturday with the same group plus a friend of the new manager. This was less enjoyable just because it was over 90 degrees. Nothing like feeling sweaty and smelly by the time you get to the bar.

Also I got some DVDs that I ordered online. Since I am a geek, yes they were Star Trek. I really enjoyed watching all twenty episodes from each of the various series. The original series and the next generation will always be my favorites, but I would be lying if I said I didn't like at least some of every series. My enjoyment may have started to drive my poor roommate to the brink of insanity since she is more of a Star Wars person.

As depressing end to my week my mom called me to say that my grandmother was put on oxygen. Not really a good sign. I try not to worry, but knowing someone you love is not in good health sucks. Now not being able to be there to see her sucks even more. It was all I could do not to make a trip home to visit.
