I overworked myself today.

This week the other paralegal at work is on vacation, and since everyone has become so reliant on her, they feel like parasites who have lost their breeding ground.

In fact, this is gonna sound like a whine, but my laptop and AOL do not mix, I swear. Both of them knowing how thoroughly tired I was tonight, left me to go half way with a juicy update (juicy because when you're half-drunk and slowly winding down the day you write whatever you can come up with) and then, I go to kill some spiders and then, bam! it turns into LJ homepage, my work has disappeared and AOL, just does not operate on the back button feature so I have no other recourse.

Damn you AOL! They will be shocked when I don't subscribe to their services at the end of my free trial period.

Moving on, I spent my evening answering surveys. The first one was about the car, I lied my ass off all through. They gave me a good deal but then, they shirked responsibility on stuff like cleaning the car, presenting the car to me beforehand (I test drive a new one and drove out with one that had quite a few miles) and informing me on the warranty information, etc.

Then, we come to the enterprise survey. They just charged me for a vacation day without giving me the option to ask for it or not. I just had to go with the completely dissatisfied bit. I know the chances of them refunding my money are slim but I am just gonna have to go with telling them how much spending $93 hurt me really much.

In other news, I have lost my creative edge and my sense of humor. My will to do anything else apart from watch TV and eat in my spare time, and my desire to advance in my career, the eating is my way of feeling sorry for myself. I have just lost it. In between that I crave Keanu
