Crappy Sleep
Last night I couldn't fall asleep, and had problems staying asleep. I didn't want to have to take klonopin, but I gave in at 5:30am when I had been awake for over an hour and had only gotten a couple of hours of sleep before that. I guess I am a bit hypomanic, just when it comes to sleep. My mood has been okay today... I got a lot done at work, but I don't feel as excited as I did yesterday. For the first hour and a half almost I wasn't doing anything but waiting for someone to give me work, and then I left early because there was no more work to be done. So it wasn't a very productive day, but I still got the work that they wanted me to do done. One of the girls, Maria, gave me a couple of bracelets. It was so kind of her. She's just really nice in general. Most of the girls there are nice. I get along with all of them. I think I annoyed one of the women by calling her Miss _____ (her name) which is what I do when I want to show someone respect. She asked me not to call her that, since that's for supervisors and she's not a supervisor. I guess we all interpret respect in different ways.
Geo got a call from his mom last night. She said that she was mad at the way our apartment looked the other day when she and his sister came over, and that she was embarrassed. I don't know why... the apartment didn't look that bad, it wasn't smelly or anything... Geo's sister was drunk off her butt, and acting stupid, but that didn't have anything to do with us. I think that Geo's mom was just in a bad mood when she came over, and took it out on Geo and his sister. She had been drinking when she left the message, so that could have something to do with it too. Geo was pissed off when he got the message (this morning) and when I left for work he told me something was wrong but wouldn't tell me what. I spent some time at work wondering what it could be, half worried that it was something major but not quite sure. Geo called his mom back and left a message saying that if she didn't like the way our apartment is, then she doesn't have to come over, and some other things.
I must say that the call upset me. She has seen our apartment when it's a horrible mess and didn't say anything, and so what did she see that was so horrible she had to call Geo and complain? I think it was more of the way Geo's sister was acting more than anything, but that didn't have anything to do with Geo and I. His sister was drunk, and she got drunk when she was with his mom, so it's not like it's our fault that she was drunk. She didn't drink anything at our place. Geo says that he doesn't blame me for anything, and that it's not my fault. I'm glad, because both of us live here and have to keep the place up. It didn't help that the day before our kitchen flooded and we had to move a bunch of stuff in the kitchen, and that we had just gone grocery shopping and hadn't finished putting away all the groceries. Still, you would think his mother would understand.
Okay, that's enough talk of the phone call. It's just that my sleep sucked last night, so I'm more apt to complain than on nights when I get a good night's sleep. I should just be happy that I'm still doing good overall, and look at my pretty new bracelets. Now I have things to wear on both wrists, the watch Geo got me for Christmas and the bracelets. I don't normally wear jewelery, but these are cute and not expensive so I have to worry about losing them. Not only that, they look nice but not cheap. They are the nice balance of good looking but not expensive looking. My watch is nice... It's a digital watch that has a nice band so it doesn't look cheap. It's just what I wanted. I'm already used to the watch, and I think I will get used to the bracelets soon.
Food today was okay... I'm a bit high on calories... I need to cut out the doughnuts for breakfast. I only have 2 left, so tomorrow is going to be the last day on that. It's just nice in the morning to have something sweet with my coffee. I drank my full cup of coffee with my doughnuts this morning, and so I didn't have much to take to work. I brought a coffee drink as well, so I at least had my caffeine cravings covered. I hope I don't get a caffeine headache tomorrow. I've only been drinking coffee for a couple days, so I should be fine. Other than the doughnuts, I had salad for lunch, ramen as a snack and a piece of chicken for dinner. Tomorrow I'm planning on eating better, so today is my last day of debauchery!

Thats so difficult i know when i dont get good sleep its tough to get threw the next day. Sounds like most the people you work with are very kind and work as a team. It would be so hard going to work after not sleeping very well.. good for you to be able to get threw the day.
Wow you held your cool very well with Geo\'s mom... i find that very rude that she would make comments about your home thats just not right... she wouldnt like me for a daughter in law because i would have been on the phone telling her how rude that was. Its really not something you should have to explain to her whether your house was messy or not its not her business unless shes the owner of the building. And for another thing thats not right of her to bring someone over that is drunk to your home sorta disrespectful to you that she did that. Geo handled it awesome telling her if she dont like it then dont come over. WTG Geo!
I so agree with good2go regarding Geo\'s mom. I certainly hope he told her to \"never\" bring sister over when drunk again. Geo must be a very easy going person but when you push to far - watch out.
I love wearing bracelets. My \"reward to me\" bracelets should be coming early next week. Everytime you look at your bracelet you will think of your friend at work....that will put a smile on your face. :)
wow, awful about geo\'s mom and sister, what nerve and ignorance. im glad geo took it upon himself to call and make his point clear, stay away.this is not a reflection on you or geo, this is your apartment you have every right to keep it however you want. is she paying the bills? no i think not. im glad your mood is still good and how nice to be give those bracelets, those random acts of kindness mean so much.
