Rainy Days & Mondays

...always get me down? Eh, not so much really, because I actually have today off. I'm not sure who made the decision at work to give us the Monday after Easter (or Easter Monday for you Canadians..at least according to my Tolkien calendar), but as much as I would have preferred to have Good Friday off, I'm kind of liking this change up.

The weekend was a bit of a cluster f$%^. I met up with Athena and Blanche at Olly's after work and a quick trip to the gym, which just ended up being a drinking binge. Backing up a little, for some reason, Easter had become a Christmas level holiday this year, and my mother was freaking out about everything from going to visit my Grandmother on Sunday to if we should just eat out. Well, what became a three way email conversation between mom, sister, and myself, just became an amazingly jumbled plan for what was supposed to happen on the weekend. I was under the assumption that we were having a early dinner on Saturday, and I figured if I was going to spend all day with the fam, then a hangover would help. So, this brings you up to speed.

I pretty much closed down Greg's, and once again made a late night trip to Walgreens for food that is horrible for me. I've really got to stop that! I woke up around 8:30 on Saturday morning, and I headed out to the fam around 9. This is a pretty typical Saturday because I still do laundry there. Go through the usual routine, even get some work done on this here blog, and around 3:30, I send a text to my sister to ask what her ETA was? I was hoping to get to see the Naptown Roller Girls bout that night, and I was going to run home if she was going to be (typically) late. No response. No response. Then finally around 4, she calls to ask if Mom needs anything, which she didn't. Mom asks her when they are arriving, and my sister says "uh...Sunday!" I start cackling with glee because I was the one trying to get people to make a decision. So anyway, I took home some leftovers, which I guess weren't really left over yet, and I was able to make the Naptown bout, after a stop off at work.

So anyway, there was a party after the bout and then brunch on Sunday, but since then, I have really not done much with myself. The plan for today is to hit the gym, go to Target, and clean my abysmal pit of an apartment. It's very rainy out, and the news just said it is supposed to be here for 36 hours. BLAH!
