Work on Sunday and Monday were pretty much the same. The only thing of
not e was the fact that I stayed for almost the entirety of my shifts on
both days. Hours picking up? I hope so!
Sunday I had an episode.
And by that I mean I cried because I didn't know there was going to be a
'Walking Dead' marathon until the new episode aired at nine. I ended up
missing episode 7, for the second time, and was so upset and frustrated
that I wouldn't be able to watch it or the newer ones until DVD,
ensuring I was behind everyone once again.
Thankfully, I was
saved by Kara, who found me a site to download episode 7 on, so I was
able to watch that and then watch the newest one at 11.
During work on Monday, I got some super cute texts from John:
":* My Valentine"
"You deserve to be covered with kisses :* :* :*"
:333333333333333333333
I should say that the first of those texts was completely out of the blue. They made me blush like mad.
He calls me his "kitten" :3
I
haven't done much this Valentine's Day, though I did hit the gym and
watch one of my Netflix films; 'Ravenous'. I...I don't...I don't even. I
didn't like it, that's all I can say.
I just made chicken and pasta for dinner and oh my God it's delicious. I'm not even bragging, I did a fucking phenomenal job.
Work again tomorrow, 12-8 this time.
The daily (hopefully) thoughts of a History major on everything from movies and actors to music and books, as well as any other things I can think of.

Pale blue eyes, strawberry hair
The modem at home is still broken. A tech is supposed to come out on
Wednesday around 1 to fix it. Since I have 3 days off in a row again,
I'll get to be there to answer questions/help them should they need it.
Which is definitely good because if it was my Dad or my Mom, they would
have no idea what to do and would most likely call me anyway.
Work is still the same; slow and boring and dull. I worked yesterday and am on my lunch break of my 12-8:30 shift today.
No Skype date with John, since no internet, but we were able to have a very fruitful phone conversation last night. I also talked with Emmy some before I read more of The Girl Who Played With Fire and went to bed. I'm almost done with that book...and should be able to get The Girl Who Kicked The Hornet's Nest sometime soon in paperback.
I seem to have hurt my wrist by bending backwards on my bed, just to see if I still could. Ice and Advil will be used liberally once I get home. It figures; once I have finally almost gotten rid of my ringworm, I hope, something else happens.
I'm glad I'm off tomorrow. Dad's taking us to lunch at a BBQ place in Boscawen, and the rest of the afternoon will consist of gym {which will depend on my wrist}, reading and watching the two discs of 'Boardwalk Empire' I'm getting in today. I should also be getting in the first season of 'The IT Crowd' that I ordered for John's Christmas gift. I also ordered him, and me, a coaster that has 'Keep Calm and Put the Kettle On' on it.

It's all because of me
-Starting Weight: 191.5
-Current Weight: 183.5
-Goal Weight: 172
--+--
Sunday I worked, Monday I worked. Sunday was an 11-7 day but I ended up staying until almost 8 because of a coworker who left early because he was "sick". And I put it like that only because he is always asking Kaeli to leave early around 4 or 5 when his shift isn't over until 8...because he's bored.
Yeah? You're bored? Unlike the rest of us who enjoy standing around empty stores, twiddling our thumbs as nothing happens. But, whatever. When coworkers aren't there, it means more hours for the rest of us. And as such, staying later on Sunday meant I could leave earlier on Monday.
Ben and I watched episode 4 of season 2 of 'Downton' together on Monday night, and he also got me to watch the first episode of the show 'Sherlock'. I kind of don't see what the big deal is with this show. Maybe it's just me. I did laugh at the line, "I pickpocket him when he's annoying", but otherwise, nope.
Tuesday was a day off. I managed to be really productive in the morning before Mom and Dad got home from Mom's job interview and put the clean dishes away, shoveled a bit and wiped the sink out. After watching two episodes of 'All in the Family', I spent a majority of my day reading my book about the Tudors; The Tudors: The Complete Story of England's Most Notorious Dynasty by G.J. Meyer. I started it in March but am just now getting around to finishing it, thanks to reading 50 other books last year.
I worked out yesterday afternoon, and it was highly successful. I managed to go 4.7 miles on the elliptical machine in 45 minutes. Not a bad bit of business, I must say, and it left me pretty pleased with myself. I also wound up staying for an hour and 15 minutes lifting weights.
I talked with Bekah on the way home, had a nice dinner and read some more before I watched the documentary 'Miss Representation' on youtube. Before I went to bed, John and I had a Skype date, which is always lovely.

I don't need another map of your head
-Starting Weight: 191.5

On Tuesday, I managed to go to the gym and was on the elliptical for 51 minutes altogether. I did some weight lifting for a few more minutes and then went home because it was beginning to get late. I stopped by CVS on the way home and bought a stronger anti-fungal treatment for my ringworm; Tinactin- or at least its generic version- along with some more band aids and anti-fungal soap. I've been using them every day since Tuesday and already it looks as if the thing is gone...which is a vast improvement over how it looked even a few days ago.
I stayed up late texting John and as such as tired when I got up in the morning. I worked Wednesday and Thursday and everything was pretty much the same as it has been. My late evenings on both nights, however, were punctuated by late night phone calls from John, both of which were amazing and hot.
During all of this, I've read more of John Adams, and yesterday, I finished the first season of 'Downton Abbey'. Bekah's package of food goodies and the book The Lover's Dictionary by David Levithan came in the mail as well. I have read 3 books now this year, and so far, only one has not been on my reading list.
I was going to go out to the gym, but the temperature around 5:15 made me change my mind, though I did walk up and back to the mail box and did some backwards pedaling on the crappy exercise bike in the kitchen. I also have eaten very well today, so that's something in my favor; eggs and toast with jam and tea and OJ for breakfast, small piece of steak with pasta and edamame for dinner and some of the goodies in the box Bekah sent.
I talked with Bekah while doing the dishes and laundry before I chatted with John via Skype for a good long while. 35 more days until I can see him in person. I'm looking forward to it much more now...especially since we established that my fetish for a hot teacher is alive and well. What? XD
