It Moved Me and Rocked My World
Ok, so I decided I had better not push the issue and went into work today. One day wasnt enough but hey, you cant always get what you want. It was great that no one said anything about me not being there yesterday. Its kind of wierd that no one really cared I was off. Everytime Ive called in when I played hookie before, I always felt like I was getting the evil eye from everyone I worked with. Here it is different. The reason being is I work in a department of 6 people and then my boss. Only one person showed up yesterday. My boss and two others were on vacation and myself along with 2 others called in sick. Needless to say, how could anyone be upset when there was no one there to work. It was like an all around unplanned holiday lol.
Anyway, on to other stuff. I experienced my first earthquake today. It originated about 3 hours away from Oakland and although it was a good distance, it was still a 5.8 and could be felt. I was sitting at my desk, when I started to feel like my balance was off. My first thought was, Im dizzy and going to pass out. My head must be unbalanced (no jokes from the peanut gallery. I know how you think). Then I felt the chair moving back and forth. At first I thought I was doing it because I was off balance and then realized it was doing it by itself. Then I heard everyone else in the office talking about it and sure enough it was an earthquake. How exciting is that. I would take an earthquake any day over sleet and snow lol.
After work, Josh picked me up and we went to Ikea. We both decided (well Josh knew but I decided), I hate their furniture or at least most of it. We picked up a few odds and ends, had dinner there (wierd, dinner at Ikea), went to Office Depot, and came home. Now Im tired and almost ready for bed. Just had to post todays events and let everyone know.
Hope everyone is well and miss you all.
