Then... later that day.

Well, back to the grind-stone of Online Support.
One thing I forgot to mention on my last post from today, is that Andy and I are proud to announce that we are the proud owners of a working washing machine! Whooo-hoo!!!! The pipes from our washer froze up in the middle of the winter and left us with our clothes-cleaning availability close to nil. So, we've been taking our clothes to mom and dad's house to wash every weekend. Not fun to do that 2 hour drive every weekend with a backseat full of dirty clothes. We determined that the pipe was frozen, but I didn't really trust myself, or Andy to take a blow-torch to the plastic to warm it up. So... we left it to Mother Nature and God's wonderful spring-time to thaw it out. Then... I kinda forgot about it. Last night, I was looking through my clothes, trying to figure out what I was going to wear today at work, and thought to myself "Hey! I could try and drain the water from the washing machine!" (Water that had been sitting in the drum of the machine for over 2 months.) I turned it to 'drain', turned on the washing machine, and crossed my fingers. Then! Suddenly! I heard the WONDERFUL sound of water being spun and draining! I was jumping out of my skin with excitement. I then piled some clothes into the machine, put some soap in it, and turned it on. I stood there, in front of the washing machine, watching it like a child watching Cotton Candy being made on a stick (DAD!! "ON A STICK!!!" hahahaha). Anyways, it was amazing how much something so tiny as a working washing machine can brighten your day (and the smell of your clothes). :)

Between shifts today, I was supposed to meet up with a friend from work to hang out, but he stopped replying to emails when his water pump broke... I'm assuming he's standing knee-deep in water right now. So, instead, I hung out in the library parking lot, on the internet for a bit, chatting on MSN with a few people, and then headed to 'town' (New Minas) to get Andy a burger. On the way, I passed my cousin Sandy. I pulled around and met up with her in the parking lot of Tim Hortons. Her and I sat there for about a half hour and talked about her lovely date last night with some Carl fellow. She was beaming from ear to ear. It was so cute. We also had a little gossip fest (bad Tanya!), which we do soooo well. I left her there after I realized that Andy had been waiting for over an hour for his burger. I went to Burger King and got him a Double Bacon Cheeseburger and myself a Whopper (which has made me feel sick now). Went back home, picked him up, went to Timmies, then went to the library to spend a few more minutes on the net before I headed back to work. While there, Andy's friends Deana and Eve walked by. They stopped and chatted for a few minutes while I gently, then increasingly more persistently reminded him that I needed to go to work. I wasn't late, but I like being early to work so I can open up all my tools and check my emails and such.

So... here I am. At work. So far today (from 11:45 til 4:15, and then 8:15 til now (10:23)), I've taken 31 calls, with an average time of 8:27, which isn't BAD, but could be a lot better. I'm sure I'll be at 40 calls or above by 12:45 when I get off.

Hm... what else to discuss.
I don't feel well. I haven't been eating right over the past few days (5 or so). I just don't really feel like eating, and when I am hungry, the thought of eating makes me sick. When I do it, I kind have to force it down and bear through it. No, I don't have an eating disorder. I think that anorexia and bulimia are disgusting, and I know what they do to your body. My cheeks are also hot. I just feel icky all together.

Anyways, time to post this so my dear friends and family and read and comment:)
Later on, my blogspot-friends :)
