Is It Friday Yet?!

              

Damn...  It's been a L O N G  week!  Thank God it's Friday... 

Errr..  I finished an entry today, but Nicholas pressed the Esc and "moon" button on my computer, and it disappeared..  Errr... 

I got to sleep in today anyway!  Andrew doesn't have school today because a "teacher work day", and Nick doesn't start preschool until this afternoon, so I was able to sleep in a few hours until my daughter's boyfriend calls at 7:24 am..  SIGH  Soon after that I got this incredibly painful cramp in my left leg.  OUCH..  What do you do when you get a cramp?  I find the best way to deal with it is to get out of bed and immediately stand on it.  I know this sounds painful, but I tell you the pain goes away within seconds. 

I'm still going to go into work today..  Got to work on those vacation hours..  I've been calling Azores Express to see if there were any flights yet scheduled from Oakland, CA to the Azores..  None yet, but I was told by the woman on the phone with the East Coast/Portuguese accent (not too easy on the ears, I tell you..) 

"Keep calling..  It will tell the "big shots" over here to get working on it.." 

Okay lady.

This week, everyone has been sick in my house--except me..  BUT, I've been feeling a rumbling in my tummy..

I still have a sore leg, and a somewhat sore back.  I'm guessing the back pain is from
"wrestling" my 44 lb. toddler from the preschool floor into our car. 

"But I don't wanna go home!!!!"

Have any of you had a child that didn't want to go home from preschool?!  I've discovering that it's best to take the youngster's shoes off first before attempting to put him in his car seat.  Anyone passing me on the street would have thought I was abducting him.  It is so frustrating, and it can be sometimes embarrassing. 

Anyhoo..  Here I am, still with no coffee in me..  I snagged this from my friend, Cyn from :  Bad Altitude, who got this from:  The Friday Five...

I think this is all you are going to be able to get from me today..

1. Would you rather have a fun job that doesn't pay well or a boring job that does? Hmm..  I've had extremely boring jobs that did not pay well, and of course I did not stay there very long.  My current job is interesting, and it pays alright, but not what I consider "well".  It does have a lot of flexibility, and my supervisors are pretty understanding, and family friendly, so I think that is worth the less pay, HOWEVER, if I had a boring job that paid EXTREMELY well, I would have to make it "fun." 

2. Would you sacrifice your morals for a job? No..  Jobs come and go; and I have to live with myself forever. 

3. Would you ever take a job that requires you to be in costume? I welcome it!  I've always wanted a job where I could wear a costume, and go incognito!  It just has to pay well.

4. What is your fantasy job?  It would involve photography, and writing.  I would travel around the world, writing and photographing, and I would have it all published in high profile magazines, and I would make tons of money from it. 

5. Would you like fries with that?  I like my fries, as long as they are hot, with ketchup!  I try not to eat too much of it though.  My daughter let me taste the rest of her "animal style" fries from In And Out.  Can you say heart attack in a basket?!  I swear, I had such bad indigestion after that..never again!
