A little on the Burnt out side
* 2008-05-19 - 4:41 p.m. *
I’m not doing well at all. My health has taken a very sad turn. Not that I’m on my death bed or anything like that, I’m just a little disappointed that I’ve plunged into another flare up. I have a constant, low-grade, fever and I’m exhausted. Oh well, there’s nothing I can really do about that right now. I just need to keep a positive outlook, eat right and try to kick this before my very last packet of birth control runs out. *** Tonight is karaoke night and I’m meeting up with my dear friend Elle for “drinks”. My drinks lately are just juice with seltzer or water. I do an occasional wine tasting and I can’t say no to at least one cherry vodka and diet coke but it really isn’t helping my belly right now. Another thing that’s really not helping is that I’ve worked at s-bux every single day since I’ve been back from vacation and I won’t have a day off until this coming up weekend. And only because I requested off. Our store is short on people, we don’t have a manager because he up and left us and I keep being placed at the drive thru. “Good morning, this is X! What can I get for you this morning?!” “I’ll have a Venti Caramel Macchiato with an extra shot, upside down with caramel syrup instead of vanilla and whip cream.” What happened to the plain old caramel latte? What happened to the very simple mocha? NOOOOO!!! We have to have every thing upside down, “non fat, no whip, extra shot, with the soul of a starving child sacrificed to the latte god, and did I mention no foam?” I think I’m suffering from burn out.
