i'm on day 5 of my 12 day stint at the florist. i love it, i really do.

except.....

(i know, i said i wasn't gonna complain. much.)

there's a lady who apparently helps out every florist "holiday". she started today.

she's nice and all. a little nervous for my laid back ass, but ok.

thing is, she douses herself in the most gawd awful...i dunno, perfume???? surely that shit can't be sold as perfume or cologne???? she got screwed if so.

i thought i was gonna die...seriously, it's enough to gag a maggot off a gut wagon!!! i have NEVER smelled poly-f**k as bad as this.

it is a fun job tho. and i feel good doing it. i told my hubby tonight that physically i feel better than i have in maybe a year. i think the gall bladder had been going downhill for a while. i used to feel so sluggish, so utterly wiped and exhausted, like i couldn't put one foot in front of the other. i've also switched to a vegetarian diet, so i'm sure that has helped. i get tired and sleepy like i am now, but i guess that's to be expected at almost 45 yrs old and standing on my feet all day.

but really, i can't believe how good and energetic i feel. it's a nice change.

i made an appointment today that i am looking forward to with a sense of excitement, calm, anxiety and dread.

(there goes that damn schizophrenia again)

i'm going to have a massage on feb 24 at 4:15pm.

omg. what if i love it??? another addiction i can't afford.

is there such a thing as M.A.A.???

Massage-Aholics-Anonymous??? maybe i'll have to start a chapter here...

a few years back when i made lots of money, i still didn't spend it on luxuries like that. yeah, maybe some nice perfume (did ya hear that sandy??? NICE perfume!!!) and good lotions and face creams, but not something so costly and quick as a massage. a $60 bottle of perfume would last a year or two. but a $60 massage??? that's over quicker than a sailor right off the boat!!

i'm not at all worried about some strange girl seeing me nakey or putting her hands on me. oh wait...now there's a scary thought...what if i like THAT too???

*heh*

i'll be sure to report back on that one. after, of course, they call my husband to scoop my ass up and drive me home and i can hold my head up and complete a coherent thought.

again i say, *heh*

****

so right now i'm going to read a bit, relax a bit, and take a stab at 'cleansing my aura'.

i think my chakra is all wigged out from work and family and never having a minute alone.

plus, i'm still pissed off that that redneck called me a HO and his negative energy is bringin me down, man.

peace out
xoxo
