Today I have drank:

+ 16 ounces of Cloud 9 (A heavenly blend of citrus pieces and strawberries with green Rooibos and decadent tiny marshmallows. This tea will send you over the moon.
Ingredients: Green Rooibos, Apples, Strawberries, Rosehips, Hibiscus, Lemon Peels, and Marshmallow bits.)

+ 8 ounces of 9 Treasures (An amazing blend of green tea, white tea, and green Pu-erh Tuo Cha (Teacakes), with strawberries, pineapple and citrus fruit pieces.)

+ 44 ounces of plain black iced tea

Today is day one of cutting out the diet soda again. I let diet Dr. Pepper back into my list of drinks once in awhile, but it's starting to become a daily thing again, so I am back to cutting it out. Now that I've finished the iced tea, I'm going to fill that cup with ice and water, and drink that this afternoon.

I was going to the gym right after work today, but J. spilled soda on my workout clothes, so now I have to wash them, first, and as tired as I am, I may not go later this evening. I'm still exhausted from a long weekend of work. (Not my main job, for most of it, though I did work here Saturday morning, and then worked all of Saturday night and Sunday morning at an event.)

Also, today is the most depressing day of the year. (I think. Maybe? According to the news via my flist, that is.) However, 22 January can never be depressing for me (well, maybe not never, but you know what I mean) because tomorrow is my brother M.'s birthday and I am usually excited about giving him his gift. Except this year I've already given it to him, because I'm not going to see him. Still, he liked it, so that's good. Anyway, today is not the most depressing day of my year in any year, which is good.

(Another good thing about today meaning that my brother's birthday is tomorrow is that his birthday means mine is just one short week away. Yay, birthdays. I like birthdays, probably too much, which stems back to the time when my family didn't celebrate Christmas and so our birthdays were times of joy and glee, especially with the post-Christmas sales. My sister C. also has a post-Christmas birthday, one month to the day before mine. Of course, there are differences in the years for all three of us. I'm rambling because I'm tired and I want to go home.)

I've now left this up all afternoon, and it's nearly time to go home, so I'll post it now.

There are so many things conspiring together to make today go slow. Oy.

First, I am tired. I just want to go back to sleep, but I cannot.

Second, I am sore from my workout last night. Mostly this is a good sore, but still, it adds to the way this day is dragging. I am looking forward to going back to the gym tonight and working on my lower body, so tomorrow both will be sore. Joy. Glee.

Third, it is the first full week after a month or so of short holiday weeks. Lately at this time on day four of a week, I'd be four hours from going home for a long weekend. Not this week, oh, no. This week I have nine more hours tomorrow and four hours Saturday. Fun. So I go from weeks of four days or less to two five and a half day weeks in a row. Nice.

Fourth, we're dead right now. We stayed pretty busy through the holidays, which was a bit of a shock, but we've finally hit our winter slump. I hate this part of the business.

Fifth, Ugly Betty and Supernatural both have new episodes tonight, so I am filled with glee and anticipation, but have to wait. I am not so good at waiting.

Of course, I'm taking a five day weekend for my birthday. (Two days off normally, then I'm taking Monday and Tuesday to go out of town, and since Tuesday is my birthday and I intend to go out that night, too, I'm taking Wednesday off to recover from the alcohol. I want Mexican food and tequila shots, local people. Or maybe Applebees and Coronas, I'm not sure.) That's not for two more weeks, though. I work this Saturday, the Saturday after (and that Saturday is also a gaming event), have the next weekend off for my 30 January birthday, and then work the following Saturday. It's going to be a long month.

(Then the month will be over, though, and it's going by way too fast. I'm not ready yet. Yikes. There's too much to do still. /vague cryptic)

Entertain me? I've been reading my flist most of the day but have only made it back to Monday or so. I'm still going, but I'm sure there are other people out there squeeing over Supernatural tonight. Yay, Supernatural!
