Helping of crow... table 1

And yes Aunt Ing is sitting at Table 1. When Bubba called home last night at 10:35 PM, he got an earful. I stated in no uncertain terms that I had had enough of the hours, the sitting home alone night after night and if he didn't manage to get his neon white fanny home before midnight Thursday he might as well not bother coming home at all.

Now what caused this sudden and violent spewing forth of general unhappiness? Not really sure but as I was making dinner last night and the phone call arrived that he was taking a co-worker here from the West Coast out to dinner I kinda snapped. He got home at midnight last Friday, I got home at 10 PM, we spent Saturday together - he went to work on Sunday - I called him home and spent the rest of the night with cranky Bubba, then Monday I got home at 9:20 from a meeting, Tuesday he got home at 10:15 Pm, last night it was 11:00 PM tonight is the only night we are together as I leave tomorrow morning for Mom's big weekend, and he leaves town Sunday Morning. And didn't I let him have it about that one... there is NO NEED for him to be leaving home at 7:00 AM on a Sunday! No, he said it was cheaper airfare - tough puppy presents - if they can't afford you to travel then stay your happy ass home. We have no life and I'm sick of it. He's had a year and 4 months of this yes, things did back off but lately not so much.

Enough is enough. Anyone wanna put down money what time his highness manages to stroll in tonight? Just to show me he'll beat me home tonight - of course I have to stay a bit later to pick up his dry cleaning tonight, and swing by the grocery store to get mushrooms for the salad, but he'll make light of it.

I felt bad when he got home last night about fussing at him, I know this job is kicking his backside but I have felt this building and it finally blew yesterday. So whoopie I get one night - but on the upside, I get to go home and have company for the better part of 4 days. Then I will have 4 more days alone, then we'll see what is what then.

I am sure part of this is that I'm so busy with the 6000 other things in my life and work has been heating up for a month and well it call came crashing down on Bubba's head last night. I did apologize for fussing at him when he got home -but last night he got home and we went to bed, and before I wake up good he's gone again. Bonus points for him - he did notice I had my hair done... and I quote "I see we got rid of the gray today" Butthead.

Another day in paradise, I have work stuff to get to - soon as I recover from the all hands meeting telling us that our operation is 3 million behind schedule and profit so all benefits that make employees happy will be cut until the senior management figures out how to bring in more work and money... yeah. We did notice that big important manager man had a newer computer and the newer software than the rest of us... hummmmm I have some better ideas where the cuts could come from... skippy the senior manager guy. *sigh* Another day in the great cog turning the wheel at nameless corporation incorporated.

Perhaps I'll find some happy news today... or not.
