And I am sad. I feel like it's been this huge whirlwind since I got my babysitting job back in July with no days off and crazy days watching kids. The last I remember it was the end of July, I was taking my chemistry final (which I am SO glad is over - see older post for results) and just starting this job. Now I'm packing for Denmark, finishing up here and flying to DC! To explain how my life is going right now, I am going to make a list. I know, I'm sorry if you've missed them, it has been a while...
Top Five Dumb Things I've done since July because I'm Tired:
1. This is by far the most embarrassing. I emailed a fellow DIS student about myself because I thought she was my visiting family. Um no. She goes to Trinity. Duh, that's what her email said! Yeah I had just worked all day and was pretty brain dead by that point.
2. Walked by the coats, laundry and shoe bin today about 5 times before realizing that I couldn't pick up anything because I was holding a coat, dirty laundry and a pair of shoes. Hello! The house isn't that big!!! And my job is to clean up shoes and wash the clothes. Yeah I'm really good at it.
3. Went to the Apple Store to have my laptop checked without double checking for embarrassing content. Not that I have unmentionable material on there or anything, but I do have a gazillion pictures my sister has photoshopped of people we used to know with horribly funny comments attached. And guess what popped up first. Yep. Oh and I'll add that it was on my birthday. I know I've mentioned this before, but it deserves a spot on this list.
4. Had customers do my job because I was too tired to calculate 40% of 24.99. Which I can pretty much do in my sleep now, so it's even worse. I even had someone go find a sign for me to let me know the discount before I walked them through a step-by-step process of figuring out the current price. In all fairness, they should have done it themselves and never asked me, but I won't go into that. Let's just blame this one on me and call it laziness.
5. Leave every possible thing I absolutely have to do until the very last minute. Yay gold star for that. What I have to do in the next 36 hours (all I have left in the US before the security line at Logan): have 4 ID photos taken, buy a neck pillow, buy a flashlight, buy a laundry bag, pack, call my credit card companies, go to the bank, and pack. Oh and I work until one tomorrow. Yes, this is by far the worst. I am a procrastinator, what can I say!? At least I'm good at it!
Ok that's my five... and as I add a completely ADD moment in here, if you find your mind bouncing and need to go to five different webpages, open new tabs and actually go to the websites all at once, so that when you're distracted halfway through the blog you can go check the status of your bank account - like I just did. And now I'm off to go check my email. So I better post this. Bye! dwh.
