Total Lunar Eclipse Ramblings...

I swear that if I don't physically see my neighbor in the next couple days, I'm going to call the police in to check for a body. He has newspapers littering his front door and his car hasn't been moved in months. (As evidenced by the fact that it's not been dug out from the snow that has been plowed ontop of it.) Normally we'll see each other in passing, but its been at least 4 months since I laid eyes on the guy. So far there's no odd smells coming from his apartment. But then again, it's the "dead" of a Michigan winter and it has been cold enough to preserve a body for a little while at least.

Work wasn't fun as usual. The full moon once again raining craziness all around. I got everything that I needed to done, but it just took 3 times as long to do it and with twice as many interuptions. My boss volunteered me to take pictures of the staff for the online Rehab Services directory. Which is cool in an odd way as I'll be able to add that to my photography resume. But then again, really not cool in the fact that now I'll have to travel all over half the state to take these pictures. There's 13+ rehab offices in the network and they are all expecting me to go out to their offices to do it. I'm thinking overtime and mileage reimbursement will be applied in a big way.

Once again, I have ear infections in both ears. And with that comes vertigo, ear pain, sore throat, and a barking cough. I've been put on an antibiotic and a new cough syrup. Thankfully, I've never spiked a temperature and ear infections aren't contagious so I don't have to miss any work. OMG, even with the insurnace coverage it those prescriptions cost an arm and a leg. Ironic that the $36 little bottle of cough syrup actually has the words "Liquid Gold" on it. Due to the sore throat, I've been eating softer foods like jello, yogurt and rice. So, tonight I decided that I'd make some gluten free hot cereal for dinner. Which was great except for the fact that it has the consistancey and flavor of glue paste. And, while it was cooking it boiled up and splattered boiling hot cereal up onto my wrist. So, now I can add a burn on the inside of my wrist to my list of woes. Fun, Fun, Fun!

You might be wondering if anything good happened in my life today. And, I can honestly say that yes, there was one good thing that happened today. When I left work for the day, I couldn't find my car key. It had apparently fallen off my key chain somewhere between the walk from my car in the parking lot to my office. I used the spare key to get home and figured I'd check the lost and founds at work tomorrow. When I got home, I dumped out my purse just incase it had fallen off in to it. And low and behold, there is is. The missing key has been found!

So, on that note, I'm going to go exercise and then finish up the book I'm reading. I hope you all have a good evening. I'll talk at ya later!
