Today we're going to spend a fun-filled day at Storybook Land.  Just me and the kid.  I must be crazy!  I know he'll have a lot of fun though!  Then next week we're spending the day at Sesame Place, but I'm bringing reinforcements with me.  We never did get a chance to do our annual pumpkin patch trip.  I don't think it's in the cards this year.  This week is my rent week, between that, today, and next weekend, there is no money going to be left over for the pumpkin patch.  I'm bummed.  DJ did get to go to the pumpkin patch with his class on Friday though.  I still feel like a bad mommy though. 

Work is really pissing me off.  I seriously think I'm going to be working on my resume this week and sending it off.  They hired a new chick about three months.  Let's call her Prima Donna.  First she wants a cd burner.  We don't NEED cd burners.  I have a cd burner because it came with my laptop.  She doesn't have a laptop.  But she wants a laptop.  I asked her if she words from home, she said no.  Well, honey, you only need a laptop if you work from home.  She's help desk, btw. 

The beginning of this the IT dept moved to a new office across the street.  It's just the 7 of us for now until they hire 3 more people.  We all basically get to pick where we want to sit.  I choose the corner so everyone can leave me the heck alone!  She chooses a cubicle one away from me.  The cubicle in between us is empty.  My cubicle was enlarged so it could fit my printer and printer stand and other odds and ends.  I don't think she was too happy about that.  She decides she need to go ergonomic.  Huh?  Needs a new chair and everything.  The desk she chose has cabinets above her where she wants her computer to be and her monitor doesn't fit well.  She needed a new flat screen monitor. 

For the past few days they've been working on lighting in our office.  There is no lights above my desk in the corner.  On the right of me there are track lights.  Behind me are fluorescent lights.  They were both on the same switch until 3 days ago.  I come in on Friday, and the fluorescents are off.  So my desk is in darkness.  I turn them on.  She didn't like that and sent an email to her boss (who is not my boss) asking him to work out some kind of arrangement with me to get a new lamp.  Basically I have to get a lamp and deal with it.  What the hell?  So I picked a very pricey lamp since I'm being bitchy about it. 

Then there was the other day I had to leave early because I wasn't feeling good.  We have staggered parking.  She was in front me.  I asked her to move.  She told me she thought I should come in earlier.  Bitch, shut up.  I waited 13 minutes for her to come out and move her damn car.  Instead of moving it, she left.  Prima Donna!

Did I mention it's 77 degrees in our office because she's cold.  No matter that some of us can't breathe.  I've just had it.  If we're going to keep giving in to her demands, I'm out of there.
