ewwwwww
Ok, so before I met my better half, I dated a guy on and off for years and thought he was "the One". The last time we got back together after a long separation, he admitted that he hooked up with four girls while we were broken up (yeah, ew #1). I didn't press for details as to WHO, but I made sure none of them left him with any party favors, if you know what I mean. I decide to forgive him (ew #2), we reconcile, and break up the final time. So, fast forward to yesterday. I'm pathetically bored and decide to create a myspace account so I can see what my former high school classmates are up to (ew #3). I stumble across one of my younger brother's ex-girlfriends, who I've actually seen around recently because she moved to the same city I live in. According to her myspace, she is currently dating MY ex-boyfriend, and in her gushing blog entries, she chronicles how they now have a real relationship. Which means...whenever I hooked up with my ex, by that crazy 6 degrees health science class logic, it was like indirectly sleeping with my brother (biggest ew of all). Isn't that sick?!?!?! Shame on me, the phrase ignorance is bliss has never seemed so true.
Also, on the professional tip, I am starting to feel a little paranoid that my supervisors are not clicking with me. I'm hoping I don't get transferred to a shitty division. I'm a hard worker, I like to think I'm intelligent, I'm nice to everyone unless given reason to act otherwise. One of their former colleagues, quite the diva herself, has taken a dislike to me. Perhaps because, in my standard approach to people, I don't tolerate her utter bullshit. I might be young and new to my field, but I don't appreciate being disrespected or patronized. Well, this chick will approach me with something unreasonable, then go over my head if I don't give in to her ridiculous demands. I'm not one to sit idly by when someone is trying to steamroll me, so I pulled the main offender supervisor aside and called her out for constantly letting this psycho run crying to them. I pointed out that even listening to her meritless complaints completely undermines my authority, especially when I'm not doing anything wrong. It feeds into this petty woman's behavior, and frankly it makes me feel like I don't have the support of people who are supposed to be on my side. I felt like it was falling on deaf ears, so we'll see. It pisses me off that someone who doesn't even work there anymore and is so obviously immature has any sort of influence over my life.
Finally, does anyone out there watch Weeds? I only started this season, because we switched from the HBO package to Showtime. We figured with no more SATC and Sopranos in hiatus, HBO was a waste and Showtime has better movies. Well, I loved the actress from Fried Green Tomatoes and saw she has this show. I tuned in, even though for various reasons I don't smoke pot, and I'm hooked. Such a good show. Last night's episode was almost enough to turn this icky week around.
