Yup, 2 weeks goes by way to fast. Now it’s almost Back To School time.  
Staying up late because I knew I could sleep as long as I wanted in the morning, that’s over until Easter a.k.a Spring Break.

I still have two weeks left before school starts!

But I’m spending them at work, so it doesn’t really count.

I did get 5 whole days off in a row over this holiday, though, which is the most I’ve gotten in a couple of years. Did me a whole lot of good.

I still have two weeks of break as well, but I spent the last two weeks working nearly 40 hours each week, and I have seven (!) doctor appointments scheduled for the next two weeks (I might need to add another one for TMI reasons). So it doesn’t feel like too much of a break.

Yeh, I worked too but only part time and my boss is really cool so half the time he let me go early so I could enjoy my vacation. Also working at a store that sells video games that your friends shop at is not really like working and one day I played video games against the boss for almost an hour.

I’m back at school. Oddly, it’s a relief… doing nothing for hours on end, just goofing off, that’s mind-numbing. It’s good to be back and working again. 🙂
