I am an idiot, clearly.
(Sneaking on my sister's computer for a few minutes- I'll check my flist and everything when I get home from work later. Love you guys. <3)
So yesterday was pretty cool, with the concert and everything, with the exception of a couple of things.
The concert itself... okay, a lot of it was boring because I didn't know the bands or whatever... though there was this one band with a lead female singer... I just wanted her to stop singing and keep talking. Very, very sexy speaking voice. *_* Anyway, the two reasons I went- Sum 41 and Simple Plan- were ZOMGAWESOME. So it was worth it. They were handing out flyers as we were leaving, for Edgefest next month... normally I'm pretty "meh" about Edgefest, but this... I looked at the flyer and promptly squeed and said I had to go. EVERCLEAR IS PLAYING. Everclear. Which happens to be my favorite band in the history of ever. Plus POD, Filter, and... damn, I can't remember the other one that I'd like to see. But ZOMGEVERCLEAR. *flails* I have to go. At least I can get Kelly to go with me for that- she really likes POD. She was all "zomghavetogo" right along with me.
Mmkay, I've been on Erin's computer long enough I think- way longer than I intended originally, actually, this was just supposed to be a drive-by kind of entry. XD I'll see you guys tonight and catch up. Bye~ <3

When I called out to work (like, five hours in advance, by the way), the shift that was on was a complete dick about it. He tried to tell me that I had to find someone to cover my shift, because there'd be no one to run photo. O_o Okay. First of all. It's not like I'm calling in an hour before I'm supposed to be there. I'm calling you way before I have to, therefore, it's not my responsibility to find coverage. It's YOURS. Second of all, it's illegal for him to just give out my co-worker's private information (i.e. phone numbers). Basically, he just didn't want to do it. It's like... god, close the lab down when Sean leaves if you have to, but I'm NOT COMING IN. They know I've been sick. And this is the first time I've not gone to work in........ I can't remember exactly, but it's WELL over a year. Possibly closer to a year and a half. I NEVER call in. So the one time I do? You can not be a bastard about it, thanks. Finally, it ended up going like this.
Me: *sigh* Well, if you want to give me some numbers... *scrambles for a pen and scrap of paper*
Alpha: *snotty* If you don't want to do it, just tell me you don't want to do it. It's not that hard.
Me: *snotty back* Fine, I don't want to do it.
Alpha: Fine. *hangs up*
So I'm probably going to get in trouble for that with Kerry. Yes, I had attitude, but he had attitude first and he was being an asshole. Everyone else can call in whenever they god damn well feel like it and they just say "Okay!" But I try on the rare occasion and I get this bullshit. Ugh.
The other problem? I'm burnt. Sitting out in the sun all day is not a good thing, and it was HOT yesterday. And unfortunately, it's crappy today, so I can't use the excuse that I went out TODAY and got burnt. Dammit. XD The one time I call in to do something I want to do (because they didn't give me the day off like I'd put in for)..... fuckfuckfuck. And the white lab coat's only going to make it look worse. I think for my face, I can get away with "Huh?" if someone mentions that I look kind of red. It's not that bad on my face- and most of it seems to be on my nose, which is red half the time anyway, especially in summer. There's a couple of spots on my neck, too, but again- I get random patches of red on my neck during the summer that have nothing to do with being sunburnt. My arms are the worst, but that can be "I was outside Friday and got burnt. It doesn't even hurt anymore." Because my arms wouldn't have been as noticeable. Or maybe... I got guilted into "helping" my mother with doing stuff with the old car (cleaning it out, whatnot, which of course involves being outside) because I was home, even though I was clealry sick. And got burnt because it was hot and she had me out there a long time. Of course, the best thing would be if it got sunny and so I could pass it off as something that happened today. ^_^;;;;;;;;; But... the thing with my mother will work, I think. I've mentioned quite a bit to a few different people how horrible my mother is. And it's TOTALLY something she'd do. Still. Mr. Sun, come out today, like soon please! <3
(Sorry, I was kind of thinking of excuses as I was typing. That wasn't supposed to be so long and boring, it was just me "thinking outloud" so to speak. XDDDD *puts it under a cut* Sorry!)
