Blah. Grrrrrrrr. Argh!

I need to get over myself today or these next seven hours at work are going to prove to be VERY long. However, I've got myself in a foul mood that just won't seem to go away. Woohoo! Yay! Fun! Blah.

I'm annoyed by work. Annoyed by the fact that I am getting by week to week with NOTHING to spare, not even pennies, and they decide to take five of our paid holidays from us. Well, gee, thanks. I was already annoyed by that thinking that I'd have to work four 10 hour days those weeks to get my 40 hours. Nope. Think again. I'll just have to deal with 32 hours. Fabulous. Thanks a lot jerks. Now you've completely screwed me on my bills. Yeah, you may not realize it, but a day's pay CAN and WILL make or break some people out there. It's awesome that doesn't matter to you though.

I'm annoyed by this whole diagnosis/not diagnosis thing. Annoyed that yet another day off work tomorrow will be spent at the hospital being poked, prodded, scanned, and blah. Oh, and stuck. Can't forget stuck since I gotta get blood work too. I'd really just like a day off work free of doctors. Is that too much to ask? Is it really?

I'm grumpy because I didn't get ANY sleep last night, so I'm just tired. My poor butt is burning up a storm. I think I may have a fire in my pants. Yeah, my body's being a jerk right now. Of course. It would be a jerk between tests. Watch, it'll be GREAT tomorrow after I enjoy my delicious barium and lay down for my CT. It couldn't POSSIBLY have been a jerk for my scope. THAT would have been too easy.

And my GOD, can the pain ease up a bit today... or at least pick a side. Not really dull, but dull pain on my left side. Kinda comes and goes. But seems fairly consistent today. Painful though. Sharp, intense pains coming on the right side... stopping my breath and then fading away, waiting to shove the knife in again shortly after. And don't forget about fire butt. And I feel like my poor colon is having spasms or something. It's annoying.

So yeah, basically, I'm just annoyed. I don't wanna see people. Don't wanna talk to people. The phone ringing is plucking my nerves. My coworkers are irritating me just by doing... whatever. Being themselves?

I think I need a nap. In a dark cave. Away from all human contact right now. In the meantime, I think I'll just try to get over myself.
 
ARRRRRRGGGgggggggg! . . . . . . GRRrrrrrrrrr!!!!!

Hey that does feel better. Thanks :)

Totally know the feeling. I have to investigate why my car payment bounced. Gah still paying for that heap and I don't even use it more then once week right now :ymad:

If I don't get back to work soon ima be in troubles :shifty-t:
 
Thanks Mike. I know I will. I'm just apparently a raging bee with an itch today. RAGING. And no steroids to blame for it this time. Hmmmm...

Just every little thing is getting completely under my skin. Like one girl at work was all like, "I know exactly what you're going through," earlier today. No, thanks, but you don't. And then she touched my back. Most people would think no big deal, but it had me ready to crawl out of my own skin. I can STILL, almost two hours later, feel exactly where she touched me. I can feel the entire shape of her hand. It feels like it's been burned into my back or something. Ugh... I just want to scream DON'T TOUCH ME.

I really think I am not fit for human contact today.
 
:( I'm sorry hun. Spit it out here. Whatever you need. We are here for you always.
 
Thanks. :) I know it's just a bad mood and will hopefully be better tomorrow.

The funny part... so lavender is supposed to be a very soothing, calming scent, right? Well, I spilled a bit of lavender oil this morning, and in the process of cleaning it up, got a good bit on my hands. So yay. My hands smell all lavendery.

Soothing and calming though? Hmmmmm... if this is me soothed and calmed, imagine if I DIDN'T have the lavender all over me today.
 
Well I can say I know exactly what you mean! But I wont touch your back! :p

I hate fake people like that, yeah I understand they are trying to be sympathetic but dont lie to me you hav NO IDEA what this is like!!

I was in the same boat as you for a while pain like I couldnt believe and the burnng ass. I remember rolling off my couch onto the floor and just rolling there in pain clentching my stomach crying and wishing my mom would come take careof me! Im no where near a momms boy or a wuss but that pain was unbareable!

Try to relax and not let the co-workers get to you cause stewing about it s just gonna make it worse! Seously, it adds to the stress. I know thats a lot asier said than done but everything will be better soon!

Great big hug for you!!!
 
I think I remember you are Canadian?? December, cause if you are, go out for a walk, cool fresh air and look at the outdoors really helps me when I am angry. Seeing birds, snow, the dogs jumping in the snow trying to catch Voles, it makes me laugh and by the time I get back in, I feel alot better! Hang in there Kiddo, I know the ride isnt always fun.
 
Nope, I'm from the States. MD/PA area. :) But I am going to take my whopping 1/2 hour of a lunch break and go do something... go outside, get some fresh air, something.

I'd shoot something with a paintball gun.
 
Jess, you have every right to be grumpy :(

Let me know if you need a midget to pull a Godzilla on your office. I got the hook-up.
 
Oh Jess, sorry to hear you are having such a bad/mad day!

Money stress on top of everythign else is just not good for you right now. I am surprised they can take those paid days off you - they wouldn't get away with that here!

Try and plan something nice for yourself after work? Even just a nice bath if that's your thing. It will give you something to look forward to.

And, try not to go postal on your workmates ;)


((((HUGS)))))
 
I have a co-worker that when ever I mention about having problems with my guts will say something like "you think that's bad, I was up with a charlie horse for about an hour last night." or " you think that's bad, I ate chili last night and I have the farts." I just shake my head and say "Really, I ate a piece of toast last night and $HIT OUT ENOUGH PEANUT BUTTER TO FILL A 5 GALLON BUCKET"
