you like me, don't you?

My boss loves me. I'm his new favorite. Ha Ha. I told him my back was hurting and he immediately put me at a desk with a big comfy chair answering the phones that weren't ringing. He said, "it's important that you don't do anything strenuous, especially this early from the accident. Just take it easy because you're soft tissue is still recovering." :) Not only did he put me at the desk with the comfy chair, but he is also allowing me to take some of Maria's tasks. So here's the DL on Maria. Maria is cool, but she's slow at what she does... at EVERYTHING that she does. She even answers the phones pronunciating each letter for a second, "GGGOOODD MMOORRNNIINNGG, Law office. This is Maria, how can i help you." It's sad, but people cut her off when she's answering the phone b/c she takes so darn long. She also types pretty slow, and in the office, things need to be down immediately or asap, she takes her time. Today, she asked me to her a favor, and i did b/c she said she had a lot to do. SO while i'm busting my ass to get this thing done for her, she's talking on the phone with her friend, instant messaging people, and conversating with the other employees for a long time. I got pretty mad b/c i was just like so what's "alll this stuff you have to get done?" But now i feel bad, b/c she's a nice person, but just not the greatest of workers. Don't worry, it's already been established that i'm going to hell, so it's okay for me to talk this way. So yeah, now i'm doing most of maria's tasks and she's gonna have to do mine, which include a lot of moving of files :) Everyone seems to like me there. Everyone's really cool and alwalys joking around, it's a fun atmosphere. The only thing i would change about that job is the location. I wish it was like down the street where traffic wasnt' even a factor, but oh well.
I am very tired. Extremely exhausted. I just want to fall on my bed and go into a deep deep sleep. At the same time i'm hungray. Real hungray. I only ate a salad today, and it was totally not filling, but i really didn't have a choice. After an hour in traffic, i went to the grocery store and bought me some groceries. It's been such a long time, probably a month since i've gone to the store and actually bought foods to make a full and complete meal. Yay for me. So with that said, i'm gonna turn on the tv and cook me some grub.

lately i been thinkin' bout
The times that i shared with you
And there's something that i figured out
Darlin' you must have been heaven sent
There isn't nothing better than
The things that you say
