the week that felt like a year

that pretty much describes my life right now. luckily i had monday off for christmas break so the week was automatically shortened to just 4 days. seems positive right? well, not when each of those four days seems to last a freakin eternity. you see, a lot of our customers are schools, health educators, etc. well, schools arent in business right now = no business for us. im not sure why im here. ive gotten A phone call in a 72 hour span. thats a sign of slow business...which results in me slowly going absolutely crazy. oh and did i mention that my boss is out this week? smart move on her part since there is obviously no reason to be here. so...no business...no boss...no supervision = me...crazy.

back in june time came out with a list of the 50 coolest websites of '05. i decided to go back and check some of them out again. it kept me busy for a little while...

there's the living to 100 life expectancy calculator. basically you answer a bunch of questions and it predicts your death. mine is at age 85. not too shabby. thinking that im going to live for another 60 years is actually a little draining to be quite honest...

there's I-neighbors. here you put in a zip code and start a little online community with people in your neighborhood. from there i guess you can get together and do social activities and such. this is probably more relevant to homeowners and people in cute, quaint neighborhoods. have i told you about my neighbors??? oh they are...special...a neat mix you could say. well, the maintenance man lives below us, and by us i mean my roomie kristi and i. next door is some asian guy that is there like half the time. i have yet to see anyone living across from us or next to them. above us is all the construction workers that do work on the apts. no lie, there are like 6 mexicans living in one place. and thats not meant to be a racist remark - its just true. whats neat is when they turn up the tejano music real loud and start singing along. usually this is after theyve thrown back a few, or many, beers. theyre usually on the balcony to welcome me home everyday. neat. oh, also below us are some he/shes. meaning, theyre a mix of boy and girl characteristics but not all on one person. yeah its just a real close knit community - we all have so much in common. dont be jealous now - im pretty sure there are some vacancies - you could come join the fun!

there are some other interesting websites...48 actually...but ill let you check those out for yourself. for now im going to see if i can manage to do absolutely nothing for another hour until lunchtime..
