Idlewild - Release the US version already! I'm dying over here!

This week has been a slow blur. Makes no sense, eh? Try living it. The weekend was nothing short of amazing. Houston was super fun, and the LotR exhibit was really great. It was very worth the 4 hour drive. We went to dinner at this little cafe that had half a menu of vegetarian food, which was awesome. Roman and his friends go to this place every time they're in Houston. It made me giggle when I realized it was smack dab in the middle of the Houston gayborhood. Ha ha ha. He was the only straight person in that place and it was packed... *insert more giggles here*

Monday and Tuesday were the most physically uncomfortable that I've ever been in my entire life. I'd have to be in serious trouble to do that again. I don't think I'd do that again if someone paid me a large sum of money. It's just not worth it. My stomach has been sensitive all week from the aftermath, which is ok, I guess. Nothing too exotic for me this week, though. Hot sauce, I miss you! I'm still feeling pretty much the same as I did before the thing on Tuesday. *insert fake shock here*

I'm avoiding the call from the doctor since they don't say on the voicemail if they're calling with results or from the billing department. I had to lie to the billing department and say that I sent a check for my first monthly payment last week or they weren't even going to do the procedure. *sigh* So far, without even getting the bills from everyone, I'm up to 4 digits of medical debt. Yeah, that's my part after insurance pays their 75 cents. I'm in major stress mode about that. I really, really can't afford to pay this right now. I set up a payment schedule, but still. I really don't have the money. I'm not sure where I can squeeze it from. I was doing a budget the other day and I think I'm going to have to stop buying vitamins so that I can pay for this. That and I can't afford to get my hair cut again for about another 6-8 months. So much for having bangs, I guess. I've already been cutting corners lately and I hate it. I really need to go to the grocery store, but I can't go until next week. I have $11 until payday on the first and I took the last of my allergy meds this morning. That's most excellent since allergy season has just kicked it up a notch in dear old Dallas. Even with them, I'm sneezing and such. Without for a few days is gonna suck ass big time. *insert lotsa snot and sneezing here*

Work is stressing me out as usual. My coordinator needs to get her head out of her ass. She makes my life so difficult just by not doing her job as well as she could. How freaking hard is it to assign things to people? Enquiring minds want to know. Apparently we're getting some new Texture Painters for our deparment, which is interesting news. I guess Warner Brothers decided to throw some more money at us after seeing our first 50 shots to film. Hopefully that'll even out our schedules and relax our deadlines a bit. We'll see how that goes. We stole one person from the modeling department last week and we're supposed to be getting 2 or 3 more in the next little while. *insert more stress here*

A good thing... on Tuesday, I asked Roman to come over and stay since I was feeling crappy after being sedated (Twenty-twenty-twenty four hours to go...) He went all the way to Tempest (my favorite tea house) and bought me a huge tin of one of my favorite teas. That's even more awesome because the last time I went they were all out of that one. He put a little bow on the top of the tin and everything. That was very unexpected, but quite wonderful. We spent a few evenings this week putting together letters and addressing envelopes to send one of his demos out to some music companies. It sounds really good, I hope someone wants to buy it. He's got 2 more coming in the near future so we'll have more to send out soon. *insert huggies here*

I'm avoiding work today. I'm tired.. mentally, not physically. My innerds still feel weird and not right and I have PMS. Stress, PMS and innerd weirdness isn't really the greatest combination ever. I'm supposed to go out of town this weekend to San Marcos for a wedding shower of one of Roman's friends. I'm not sure if I can go or not yet since Cheryl *still* hasn't sent my updated list of assignments and deadlines. I'm not sure if I have to work this weekend yet or not. Roman's not leaving until tomorrow morning, so at least I have today to figure it out. Honestly, I really don't want to go. Not because I don't *want* to go, but because I'd like to just spend a quiet weekend at home. I'd like to clean my apartment and get some things taken care of around the house and such. I guess we'll see. *insert waiting here*
