No good deed goes unpunished

I'm sad right now because I was supposed to see Wicked this summer before school started again and I wasn't able to go. Our local college has something called adult plus where they take senior citizens (and the general public but the seniors get a discount) to different things like broadway shows and trips to NY and museums and things like that. Well, that had on their agenda Wicked and me and my friend wanted to go. Their seats were full but we were put on the waiting list. We did this early in the summer but as the date approached, we still didn't hear anything. We've been shorthanded at work for awhile so I've been putting in some heavy overtime. When my boss was doing the schedule for the next week, she asked if I stilled needed that day off because my co-worker wanted four days off because her bday and anniversary were like two days apart. Why she needed four days for two, I don't know. She actually wanted a whole week off but since we were shorthanded, she was only going to get four. So, anyway, my boss asked if I still needed it off and I said no, because if there were openings then they would have called by now.

So the day before they were supposed go, they called my friend and said that someone had cancelled and they had an opening which really sucked because I had to work and couldn't go and neither could my friend. But they still were going another day (today) for Wicked and we asked to be put on the list for that. But lo and behold, no one cancelled this time and so I didn't get to go see it. And I really really wanted too. It just really sucks.

I mean, I had requested for the first day off months before and I just let it go so my co-worker can have her little 'vacation.' I can understand but at the same time, I've been pulling 6 days a week for the last two months to help out and then worked 10 days straight to help my boss and her out and I missed my opportunity. Plus I'll be full time at school and I won't have any time to do anything else but school and work. It just sucks. Really and truly. Oh well. I guess I'll see it sometime. Thanks for letting me vent. Good day people.

I've been up for too long...

For the many many people who would read this, I'd like to share a few things. Perhaps more, perhaps less. It all depends on how long I type. First off, the doctor told me that I wouldn't have as many nose bleeds if I just kept my finger out of it. I told him, information that he already knows by preening my file before downloading, was that I had gotten poison ivy on my brain and it really really itched. I had try to think about sandpaper to relieve my suffering but it didn't always prevail which is why I used my finger. He asked me if I truly thought my finger went up that far and I asked him why he pooped in the refridgerator. He asked if I was stupid or something and I replied, stupid is as stupid does sir. And I do not dues stupid. I told him that my mama always said that life was like a box of chocolates. I think that's because chocolate makes your teeth fall out. Mama don't go no teeth. I buried my mama on a Tuesday but forgot to put her new hat on her, so I dug her up on a Wednesday and buried her again on Thursday. If you think that's sick, then you never had the birds flu. It's kind of like the mad cow diease minus the mooing and the occasional blurted cuss word. In other news, I'd like to give everyone this gentle reminder. The titanic didn't hit the iceburg, I pushed it.
