And a new year means everyone will be thinking up their new years resolutions. Mine is simple. Lose weight (cuz everyone wants that right?) and just find happiness. Sounds simple... but its fucking not. Why do I always choose the hard shit!?

So anyway my christmas was pretty shitty. I had to work both days that all the other people have off. I missed out on christmas with my whole family and didn't get to give my year and a half old niece her present. That really bummed me out. I did have a nice christmas eve dinner with my parental units however. So it wasn't totally shitty. Only moderately so.

Its 4:30pm on Dec 30th, 2004 and all I've done today was work my am route, clean my apartment, and dispose of my no longer piney fresh christmas tree. Not too many people know this, but I really fucking hate spiders. My tree was full of them. The little bastards were breeding merrily in the warmth of the x-mas lights and decorations. It was all I could do not to scream like a mad woman while dragging the corpse of my tree halfway across the fucking complex. Did I mention I'm only 5'3" and the tree is a lot taller than me? I bet I loked like a midget lumberjack. Luckily I'm not weak or a wimp cuz the damn thing was heavy. I immediately came in and took a nice, long, hot shower... just in case one of the spiders decided my long hair would be a good residence. *shudder*

In other news my brother is a daddy for the 2nd time as of Tuesday. Maegan was born at like 8am something and was 6lbs 2oz I believe. I haven't gotten to go see her yet, but hopefully next week when my bro isn't working I can make it out to Sandy.

Its been too long since I blogged. I really should do it more often so I don't have to play catch up. So yeah I met a cool guy yesterday. I was nervous as hell but he's pretty laid back so it was all good. Yesterday rocked except for one thing.  After subjecting him to Wesley Willis my cd player in my car decided to eat the cd. Its now stuck in there, won't eject, and wont' play. It says "CD in", but when you try to play it it says "no disc"... So H (i'll leave his name out for now) fiddled with my knobs *snicker* but couldn't get it out either.  It would be pretty fucked up if it suddenly started working again and just happened to play the song "Fuck You"... that's all I need to hear is the voice of a retarded black man from Chicago mocking me thru my car stereo.

I highly recomend any of his cd's. He's got like 100 or something. The first time you listen to him you'll laugh so hard your bowels will give way. *evil grin*

Now I must go finish making soup.

Well today I turned 26 freakin' years old. Yay for me. I'm tired as fuck and haven't gotten enough sleep this week at all because I've been working too many hours. Like yesterday for example. I worked my morning route, then had to come back and work an afternoon. All was going fine even though I had a bus with no fucking radio and a shitload of dead miles in between a few stops... At one of my last handfull of stops one of my customers decides to give me an early birthday present...

I had just started unhooking the back securement straps on this one woman's chair when "sploosh" a flood of urine washes down from the very back of the bus and over the securements I had just taken off the front of her chair... So now they are nice and soggy, and smell urinetastic. The guy who caused said flood was pretty much oblivious. He sat in his man made lake asking questions about going to the store. I was still in shock over the sudden flooding so I didn't say shit back to him.

Doing what I was taught I called dispatch to let them know I had a situation. My dispatch guy proceeded to tell me  to "Do what you gotta do"... My immediate response was "no you don't understand... I need a MOP!"... I don't know, maybe I didn't make it clear enough to him, cuz I had 4 fucking paper towels left and a flood in my bus. Thank god for rubber gloves.

Long story short by the time I got back to the yard it was almost 7pm. (Note that my morning shift starts before 5am and my ass has to get up at 3:30am.) I had to scrub the bus with hospital disinfectant and mop the bastard out. I saturated those seatbelts and seat he was sitting in to make sure it was sanitary, but I really doubt the person who had the bus the next morning would enjoy hearing "my seatbelt is soggy" hehehe...

So after my all too short nap I'm gonna go hang with friends and get drunk. Yay booze! Its been 2 years, and after a week like this one, dammit I deserve it.
