You spin me right round baby, like a record baby, right round round round

So.. Vegas was awesome. Things worked out a lot better than I had hoped. I was debating on whether or not I was actually going to go. There were a lot of issues that I didn’t think I could deal with. All in all, the weekend was awesome. I got to hang out with my best friend, Andrea, her boyfriend and another couple. Saturday, well, I’m not going to talk about that. Man, now that I try to think about what I did each day, I can’t. Everything seems to mush into one day! Though I guess it is Vegas. Things like that do happen there. I can’t wait to go back.


I hate the week after a holiday weekend. My week, which was only 3 days, seemed like it was 10. And things at work aren’t going to get any easier. In the next 3 weeks, we have mandatory OT in effect. I like the extra money and all, but we have to work 24 hours extra! Three full 8-hour days, or four 6 hour days. I’ll be working a 7 day work week for the next 2 weeks.


I’d be able to split it up a bit better if I didn’t already have plans to go camping the last weekend in July, which is also my birthday weekend. I wouldn’t work then even if I wasn’t going away! The only bad thing is that I kind of wanted to go out out for my birthday. But I want to do the whole camping/lake thing too. Since Ken and I go back together-ish I would want him to come as well, but I’ll have to see how things work out for that weekend.


So Ken is away for like 10 days or so. He went back to the east coast to visit family and some friends. I don’t think I’ll have a problem keeping busy, since I have to work so much now, but I still feel like I’m going through withdrawal. We spent time together all last week after we got back from Vegas, which was totally awesome. I’m really happy we’re trying again. I just feel like we didn’t give things enough time to settle in. We didn’t know each other’s quirks and habits, so it was hard to try to work around each other, if that makes any sense whatsoever. We both need to slow things down and really find out who the other person is. I think things will turn out for the better :)


So back to work .. yay. Mandatory overtime my ass .. arg!
