The BCC chair emailed me yesterday. They want to make me an “honorary” Bare Chest man because of “all my hard work“. Whatever, too little too late. I declined as 1) I’m on vacation during the time suggested and 2) I am not really a vain person so recognizing me after the fact is not on my list of priorities.

In carnal news, I had a very nice playdate last night. I’m not a “clingy” person however, I had so much fun, I actually invited him to sleep over1. He was THAT good. A perfect fit if you catch my drift. And speaking of playtime, I rejoined AO-hell. Now that they are free, I can’t bitch about shitty service because I ain’t paying for it. 😛

I finally picked a cleaner for the apartment. Out of the 3, not only were they the most personable, they also showed up on time, didn’t try to blanket charge me, and the husband is a hottie! My roomie is swooning. Kind of a waste of energy being he is straight. Anyway, they start today and I’m anxious to see how well they do. They were really eager and polite which is a biggy w/me.

I had to cancel my ride along so I could go to the doc today.2 Apparently, I’m going to live. I’m friends w/my doc and always enjoy visiting him. The whole office is very friendly and interactive w/patients. They are also happy about my EMT gigs and work relating to.

I’ve realized more and more lately, I am stretching myself too thin. I developed an ugly chest cold last week which I knocked out w/some good antibiotics. I got it, partly, because I am routinely exhausted when I get home. I am doing too much. Even my blogging is suffering.3 So, I’ve resigned from two charities and the other is pretty much done for the year. After I’m back from the vacation, I’m also asking the chapter president4 to take over 1 of the 4 committees I report too.
1 In case you missed it, I get around. Not as much as the hoe-bag roomie but still. My motto? ‘The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence. So stay on this side and keep your knees clean!’
2 Nothing major. Just needed to switch meds. (I have a problem w/my hypothalmus gland and TRH levels)
3 The latter isn’t a big deal as I am a firm believer life comes first. Of course, not having a social life, it becomes a moot point.
4 The very same person who accused me of being a traitor at work.
Well it’s nice to know the hired help is WORTH THE MONEY. 😉
I hear you on gettting worn down. You probably have the right idea by backing down a speel on some things. Heck, look at Rob…NO more school, dropped his Arabic, and he happier than a lark and healthier.
Relax….take a break. Take care of yourself ( pampering is worth it every once in a while).
You don’t have to take on the world, you know? 😉
