I am so freaking bored. There’s stuff I could be doing, but I just don’t want to. I can’t wait for next week. I’m going to sleep in and eat my mom’s cooking. I’m going to work on my application strategies for the drug rep jobs and watch some DVD’s, too. Miss Kitty has seemed more enthusiastic about me doing this lately. She wants me to get my name in to more companies. I am so sick of the constant power plays and pettiness (including my own) around here that I think it would be nice to just float in and out of offices and not have to be involved in the crap that goes on.

I’m just about done with my Christmas shopping. I feel a little bad that I am going to get my sister and brother-in-law another gift certificate to Lowes. I just don’t feel like I know what to get anyone anymore and the idea of just buying something to buy it saddens me, but is what I end up doing out of frustration. At the least I know that they can get stuff they need with the gift card and it won’t be a hassle to take home on the plane. Hopefully, I will be able to give them something a little more personal next year.

We’ve been getting all the weird adoption calls today. Christmas brings it out in people. Some guy who works for a fast food place wanted to adopt a baby because his wife is really good with kids. He was mad when he found out that he would have to have a lawyer to file all the paperwork. A lady called and said that she was currently going through a divorce and that she wanted to adopt a little girl and that her husband would never let her. She seemed like an intelligent woman and she already has two children, but just couldn’t understand why it wasn’t okay to start the adoption stuff while she was in the process of a divorce. Scary thing is, I’m sure she’s a better parent than most of the people I see in my office.

My friend Kelly emailed me to tell me that a woman therapist who rents one of the offices where she works is looking for someone to slowly take over her practice so she can retire in a few years. She does mostly court appointed stuff. Kel thought I might be interested. I wish I were. It’s sad to say, but after a mere 5 years, I am sick of trying to help people who either don’t want help or don’t want to do the work of changing.

Love to all.
