Expenses

Bills keep piling up. Things I need to buy, things that I don't but still do. And now i've got to replace my iPod, as somehow it managed to go throw the wash undetected until it was in the dryer. Its been several hours and it still won't turn on. I think its toast :( So that could cost me another $200...great. On the plus side, since my Promotion Pay hasn't kicked in yet, I am still hourly based, and worked from 7:30AM Friday to 1AM Saturday in the office.

Yes, thats right. About 18 hours at work. Installing a new phone system with TJ, and we're still not done. It got to the point where we were too tired, too pissed off at the idiot MITEL workers, that we decided to do the last dozen phones when we get to work on monday.

Speaking of Monday, thats going to be hell day. We're going to get calls all day long, wondering how to work the phones, how to program them, etc. And I have to leave around noon for my doctors appointment to get my back looked at. My medical documents from NJ arrived by mail today, and I read through them. I wasn't aware that i was THAT close to needing surgery on my ankle. If its still not healed right, it looks like i just might need that surgery afterall, though the doctor tomorrow probably won't be able to tell me that (he's a spinal type doctor or something, looking at my back). So, fingers crossed on that. If i have surgery, I won't be able to drive (right foot) which would put a huge hole in my schedule.

Gotta get up around 6:30 tomorrow and get ready for scouting. Hopefully my camelback isnt broken - its brand new and I think it might have a leak in it. >.< Not good, since it'll be my only source of water tomorrow when out in the 100 degree heat and humidity of Green Swamp. Couldn't find a Blaze Vest either (the cheap ones) at Bass Pro Shop, but luckily I won't need to wear one tomorrow. I hopefully won't forget anything that I need tomorrow. Gotta remind myself to use the DEAD DOWN WIND stuff when I shower too, so the deer can't smell me and ruin the hunt for the Archers.

Well, random yes, but i've got to go to bed now. No IPOD though, so will listen to my PC for a while then shut it off once i start getting sleepy. In an hour or two.
