My stomach is killing me. I know it's stress-related IBS because I've had this before. I need it to stop though.
I'm waiting at my parents' for my History textbook to be delivered. I am so behind in that class. I made a 0 on a quiz yesterday because apparently we had to read a chapter over the weekend that I thought we didn't have to read until today. Off to a great start, huh
I'm embarrassed to share... It's the final book in a super shitty YA trilogy that I am only reading because I'm stubborn and can't just quit a book (or three). The series is "Ashes" by ilsa Black. It's really not very good- but once I commit, I go until the end (even if I'm rolling my eyes and skipping paragraphs at a time).
I love YA novels. Sometimes they are my favorite. I am the same, I can't quit either! I read the first Flowers in the Attic with book club in January and then quickly read the next two because I HAD to know.
That's exactly how I feel. I'm about to pour more wine and get started on this third book. I just need to fucking know how this damn ridiculous story ends!

HUGS! I have a "nervous" stomach my grandma always called it. I feel you on the tummy issues.
I found out today that my job does not offer bereavement leave that is paid for unless its a spouse,child,parent or co-worker. So those 5 days I just had off of work after my 7 hours of personal time I put in and the 8 hours I worked that is all I will get paid for for last week. That is kind of a blow to my pocketbook. I obviously wouldn't change anything about it, my grandma was more important that money but I didn't expect to be told that grandparents were not covered so I was just kind of taken aback by it. Oh well.
Yeah, they aren't covered at my job either. They only give you 2 days too. Fuckers. Who would be ready to come back that soon?
I know Larry happened. Please do not try to convince me otherwise. Please don't talk to me about coffee. I don't drink it. I don't caffeine. When I state my opinion, that is me chiming in on a topic. This is not me saying you suck at life if you do or feel differently. If I want to say that, I will. If I want to speak on you, I will.

I need lots of drinks. DS has been throwing up all day. Poor kid's trying so hard not to. Like he's trying to swallow it back and it's just making things worse.
I get 27 days of pto each year. But we don't get any holidays off.
I only get 17 PTO days. No paid holidays, no sick leave, nada. Thankfully I'm salary so I can make it work but it's the pits. That's why I have three days left because I'm a PTO hoarder.

I defiantly am not ready to be here now, but I have no choice. I think I should be able to fill out a paper and be be like she is not my grandma, she is my mother. The woman who raised me. I hate that jobs and other people put expectations on a name. Just because she was my grandma does not mean she wasn't more to me than that. They don't know each individual relationship that a person has with each member of their family. I love my mother don't get me wrong but I won't be as broken hearted when she passes as I am my grandma. So I just think corporations suck.

I just finished reading the Forest of Hands and Teeth trilogy. So good.

They really should allow you that time, but you're right, corporations suck.
I have wine, pizza, and a new library book. H is working late and ds is already asleep. I hope I can shake off the weird mood I've been in with a quiet and relaxing evening.

I thought I was going to be on for a twelve hour shift, but I was only on for 8. The girls were so excited when they got home from daycare and I was here with ds.
