Holy fuckness! I’m the worst poster lately, please don’t stop reading.
I haven’t been posting because I’ve been working late at the old people home to make up for the hours I’ll miss for my surgery, which is just around the corner. I’m also still working at the flower shop. It’s a shit ass company and the pay blows, but I really like my co-workers and I enjoy working with flowers.
Speaking of my surgery… After one of my residents asked me, “What happened to your face?” I informed her that I had just had surgery and after a small interrogation she discovered damn near everything about me, minus my menstrual cycle. So, for the past three weeks “she’s been praying for me” and continues to invite me to her church services “just around the corner. Today she brought me a card… I wish I could tell you what it said, but I have no fucking clue. Based on what I can read, it appears that her and her church group will be praying for me.
On the other hand… Good friend PDX said, “If I were still a praying person, I would pray, but instead I'm having conversations with the Universe that it owes me some good karma for dealing with my fucked-up family and so things should go well for you.” Oh shit! I’m rolling with laughter.
So, how I’m feeling about my surgery? To be honest, I’m blocking it out. And when I do slip up and think about it I get irritated and angry. The best way to describe it is this… Have you ever been invited to a wedding, baby shower, etc. for someone you really know and you REALLY don’t want to go and you sure as hell don’t want to by a gift? Well, that’s how I feel. Obligated, irritated and angry. Moving on…
I saw my first dead body the other day. My boss informed me when I walked into work on Thursday that we would “be stopping by S** E****’s viewing before we headed out to do our outreach.” Despite my love/fascination for the afterlife, I wasn’t too amped about seeing the embalmed body of a woman I didn’t know. And considering I’m the most unsympathetic person alive I really didn’t want to hug/offer the family my condolences. Anyways, I didn’t really see the body; I focused on the family… But I could see her white bouffant out of the corner of my eye, creepy.
Okay, so this post blows, but my work day is over and I have a 2+ hour drive ahead of me so I need to go.
That is all.
