Stuck Between Hawaii and Italy
Yeah, here I am at stuck at the end of a crappy week in fabulous Las Vegas while I have friends soaking up the fun in Hawaii and Italy. Sigh. Life just doesn't seem fair sometimes. In all honesty, both couples deserve a romantic get-away; I just wish that I could join them! Well... on second thought, I just want a romantic get-away of my own. Right about now I would be overjoyed to be anywhere but here. I don't even care about location for the moment- just get me the hell out of Dodge! We thought about going to San Diego this weekend, but we couldn't get a room at the hotel we like to stay at. Oh, well. We could have stayed at my uncle's place I suppose. Too late now.
It has honestly been one of those weeks that just generally sucks. Work disappointments, insurance company issues, bodily discomforts, pool heater issues (Yes, still. The guy is finally trying to fix it right now.), Jr High kids... The one thing that I dreaded this week (Mission Days) wasn't really that bad. The kids were remarkably well behaved, and it was very easy. I do enjoy my job. I think I would enjoy it a lot more if I didn't have to deal with the other staff members who have nothing to do with my stuff. I hate personality issues and politics. Everyone seems to think that they have authority over areas that really don't concern them, and that is very irritating. Maybe next week I'll try to tell someone how to answer the phone, because that's a big part of my job description, or I'll take advantage of my personal relationships with other staff members to get what I want. Anyway... It would be nice if I could just do my job independant of all of that, but it seems to just go with the territory.
Why in the world do we pay money to insurance companies when their sole purpose is to figure out creative ways not to pay for services and prescriptions? They create so many hoops that you have to jump through that I'm surprised that anything is covered! I guess that just goes with the territory too. (I won't bore you with the actual story. It's really not that interesting.)
Maybe since this week was less than stellar, next week will be great! It will be busy for sure. Between Jr High team meetings and my festival birthday I won't lack for activity. I'm looking forward to it. Until then I'll just envy those enjoying MaiTais and good pasta and wine. Sigh.
