Like a snowball rolling into hell

  I wouldn't believe having a part-time job could make me so crrr-azy, but it has.  My life feels like a snowball rolling downhill and speeding straight into hell.  Well, I may be exaggerating, but just a bit.  Trying to fit everything on my plate this week -- from getting the kitchen carpet cleaned to changing my will to donating plasma to DMan's family coming for a visit -- around my new work hours makes my calendar look like I'll be running a marathon.  Thank God (and DMan!) I have a massage to look forward to tomorrow morning.  That was my present from DMan for our two-year anniversary of being an "us" back on May 29.  I'm just now getting a chance to get my massage and my body needs it bad!!
   My first day of working at the library yesterday was nuts.  We'd had some bad storms roll through in the morning, which knocked out power to some of the library branches and the main computer server, so me and the other new page/shelver were trying to learn our jobs when nothing was "normal."  I've got to applaud the Springfield-Greene County Library staff, though, they were so sweet and understanding with all our questions even in the midst of power/computer-outage chaos.  And today was equally nutso, playing catch-up from all we couldn't get done yesterday.  But these folks are troopers and such hard workers, they are the best people in the world to work with!  If you ever want a great place to work, try the SGCL library system.
   My precious DMan had a glass of Cono Sur Pinot Noir waiting for me when I got home, such a nice treat to chill me out.  Then we met some of my Republic High School classmates at Ruby Tuesday for a get-together since Suzie, now living in Florida, was in for a visit.  There wasn't a big crowd of us (and you all that didn't make it missed out!), but we had a blast and lots of crrr-azy laughs.  DMan and I had two super-size glasses of Copa Cabana Cabernet with our appetizer, and I forgot all about work and schedules for a while.  I just read on the Vino Cellars newsletter that even thinking about drinking wine can relax you, but I can attest that actually drinking it can make you positively jellified!
   Wishing yall a jellified relaxing Tuesday evening, especially if your life feels like a snowball rolling straight into hell.
