January 09, 2003 – morning

Wt: unknown
Mood: Downright miserable
Work docket: Communities done…working on Scrapbook; more redesign search and replace; work on keeping mouth shut
Lunch: HC Chicken and Veggies that I neglected yesterday in favor of a pizza
Evening Plans: Roll up in a blanket and merely exist.

Yesterday sucked. Not in a “this is my worst day EVER” way, but in a “how many MORE ways can things piss me off” way. I learned something at work (South Jersey’s BEST Newspaper) that made me feel unappreciated and unwanted. This morning I have mad cramps and nausea. Happens every few months or so.

I really wanted to call out, but figured if I did, it would be seen as my throwing a fit from yesterday. Because we ALL know that when women express emotions at work other than pleasantly agreeing or silently weeping at {insert reason here}, they’re being bitchy. I hate that. Male colleagues can complain and criticize and disagree with EVERYTHING done by the company. When I do it, it’s “Boy are YOU in a bad mood today.”

BTW…if you ask me who I work for, my answer will be, I work for ME.

Hello!

About Me

I've been blogging for over twenty (2 decades! 2-0!) years and I'm apparently one of the few over-50 female bloggers who haven't sold out to THE MAN yet; hence this blog remains quirky, homespun, and unprofitable. No big. However, if you're from Disney, Doritos, or Dave Matthews Band, I'm open to talk about selling out.

I live in Southern New Jersey with my husband WM, and our dog Murphy. I'm an adult who likes Disney but not a Disney Adult. I used to work a fun (really!) office job in Philadelphia, but since March of 2020 I'm a work from home hermit. So if you're looking for a childless, slightly round, marginally boring GenX woman's blog to follow, you've come to the right place! :)

Well, that happened.
