ugh. i am back to work and i SO do not want to be. i caught a cold last thursday and it still hasn't gone away. my head is all snotty and i just don't want to be here. besides that, it's super slow, so i really don't have much to do. but i don't have any more vacation or sick time left, so i've got to suck it up and stay. being an hourly employee really sucks. sigh.

my 5 days off went really fast. much of it was spent hanging out with the new kitty and taking naps. being sick pretty much zapped any motivation to do much of anything.

christmas was surprisingly calm. we ended up going to hubby's folk's house both christmas eve and christmas day. my mil didn't get hammered like she usually does, so that was great. the dinner was pretty bad though, like it usually is. as much as my mil thinks she has skills in the kitchen, she really does not. but, we were out of there nice and early, so that made me happy. hubby fell asleep on the couch shortly after we got home and was snoring heavily not too long after that. i decided not to wake him to open gifts, as we usually exchange them on chrismas eve, and let him sleep through the night.

christmas morning we woke up around 8 and did our gift exchange and napped on the couch. we headed back over to his folk's house for brunch and gifts at 11 am. we were back home by 1pm and i went straight to bed to nap. i napped for most of the day, then got the dreaded 'crap, i have to go work tomorrow' thoughts that ran through my head for the rest of the night. i didn't sleep well at all last night so it's really making me drag today.

as for my biggest drama this weekend...i got my hair fixed. i called numerous salons on monday and thankfully, found one that was open and could take me. the girl who did my hair was totally stunned at what it looked like. so, to fix it, she pretty much had to cut all of it off. :( my hair is soo short. i basically have a hair cut like posh spice, except in brown. it's very drastic. i'm still trying to get used to it. i'll post a photo later when i get home.
