Lots of TV and a Little Self-Pity Party

Once upstairs last night, I was too tired to give an opinion (besides "Stupid Refs") so I went quietly to bed.

Pamela Anderson is gone on DwtS, thank God.  There's really not much else to say.  It's still the beginning of the season and I haven't picked out my favorites yet (the only thing I knew was that I wanted Fake Boobs gone...)

I enjoyed both episodes of New Girl.  Even better, my mom enjoyed it to; I had to rewind to everyone's reactions to Jess losing her job because my mom was laughing so hard she wanted to see it again.  And then I had to pause and wait for her to calm down so I could hear the TV.  It was all because of Schmidt.  Well, Schmidt and Obama...

I also managed to sneak Castle in today before work, mostly because the girl I was working with also watches Castle and I was hoping to discuss it with her.  She had the TV on while she was in the room, but didn't remember a thing about it (probably fell asleep in front of the TV).  I admit I had been kind of avoiding the episode because it was obviously one of the episodes about Kate's mom and I tend to not enjoy those as much.  Still, once I sat down and watched it, I found myself enjoying it and was almost late for work because I had to watch all the way to the end.

Today, I am a proud member of the Packer Nation.  Why?  Because Green Bay fans have a sense of humor.  First, you have the Replacement Weather Guy, and then I heard about an eye doctor in Green Bay that is offering free lasik to any replacement refs.  


Aside from the news that the real refs are back and the fact that I managed to get four-and-a-half hours into my shift before a twinge reminded me to wrap my ankle, this afternoon has pretty much sucked.  Work was a nightmare, with non-stop customers that kept Ashley and I from cleaning, thereby keeping us there until almost 10.  And then I got home and got on Facebook and saw that one of my best friends from high school got engaged.  My first thought was "Congratulations Trish!" and that lasted until after I told her so on her wall.  And then the depression sunk in.  Kylie and Tim are getting married next week already; sure, I've barely talked to Kylie at all since high school, but some of the friends I have managed to keep in touch with are still close to the two of them.  And aside from Ashleigh (who is driving me crazy right now) and Amy (who is single by choice) all my friends out here are getting engaged and/or having babies.  My cousin Stacey, who's younger than me, just had a baby girl and let's not get into the four weddings in a year and a half that I just had on that side of the family (including Stacey's).  I'm 24 years old, still in college with no boyfriend and no prospects.  It is depressing to be surrounded by people having babies and getting married, even if a lot of the people are mostly people I keep up with on Facebook now a days.  So, I'll let myself drown in a little self-pity tonight and tomorrow, I'll get up and face the day with a bright, positive outlook. 
Because, hey, if I can go more than four hours non-stop at work, maybe a hike is only 2 weeks away, instead of 3; and maybe I can start wearing heels again next week.  And one day, I will meet the guy God has planned for me.  And I have a job.  And life IS good.
