Relaxation Day....

.....and I REALLY need one. I had to work yesterday instead of my usual day off. I could have gone back in time because the 2nd half of the shift SUCKED! The 30-minute transition to the 2nd shift SUCKED. 3 people either called in sick, told me that they did not want to come in to work, or just plain did not show up (as I am aware of at this time until I go back tomorrow AM.) I was SO mad! I wanted to finish the shift calm and ready to work on an important due this weekend. And what did do when I got home? I crashed.....literately. I fell asleep on the bed within seconds while waiting for my love to finish his work on the computer. My body was SO tired from being cranked out for over 3 hours. It was exhausted from the stress I was under. Well, after 45 minutes nap, I woke up and completed my paper. I relaxed with my boyfriend watching "Running on the Sun". I do not recommend eating anything BEFORE, DURING, AND AFTER the movie. It is a great running/motivation movie. But there's lot of toenails falling off, HUGE puss-filled blisters (and being drained too), and vomiting in the movie. Yes, it was THAT gross - NO joke! I am SO sorry to list them, but it's in the movie. It was great to see the participants not giving up during the Badwater 135 Ultra-marathon. We had to stop in in the middle of the movie because both of us were getting really sleepy. (I had to ask Josh to FORWARD past the guy vomiting right before we stopped the movie.) Josh had his Run for the Zoo 5K this morning. He gave me the option - even though it was his first 5K ever - to stay home to rest after the horrible day yesterday. I wanted to go, but my body did not want to. It did not sleep well the night before (some DUMB ASS - no one we know - calls at almost 1 am. WTF?). Well, as I was in dreamland, my boyfriend did AWESOME and even SMASHED his own PR. He called me right after he finished and let me know how he did. I am SO proud of him. He came home, showered, and then wrote his blog entry. Then it was off to Dim Sum - his treat. SO yummy! After we stuffed our face, the rest of the day was OURS. Rest, rest, and more rest. Tomorrow's another work day. I envy Josh's because he's a little shorter than mine since he's going to GMR on Thursday with the gang. Oh well. The weekend will be mine - at least until Josh gets home. Now back to the land of relaxation...
