HMPH!

I'm kind of having an "I Want to Be Somewhere Else" kind of day, but I'm not sure I mean it.  I mean,  usually I don't care that I'm going to work.  Then I'm not too crushed that I'm there.  Then I come home, and that's pretty great, etc.

Not.  Today.

My brain and body have protested every aspect of today, and it's all I can do to keep my mouth from attending the party.  And if having a serious case of the Monday I Don't Wannas isn't enough to ruin my day, how about the following?

*  How hard is it to answer the question, "Hey, Bossguys, will I still be employed in a month?  Because child care professionals kind of like notice, and my kids are done with school in 24 days."  I've asked at both Citi and Kelly Services.  The closest thing to an answer I got was, "I'll look into that and give you a call on Wednesday."  5 days later I call back.  Raise your hand if you think I've been informed.  Well, I'm not.  And now I'm seriously running out of options for the kids.

BUT IT ALL DOESN'T MATTER BECAUSE:

*  Josh is taking some class that will qualify him for some job (where have I heard that before?) and I'll have to quit to stay with the kids in the morning, anyway.  Why is it that news like this is never delivered BEFORE I spend a month trying to resolve the now moot problem?

*  I'm supposed to be picking a cruise to go on to celebrate my 10 year anniversary.  Josh does not seem to notice that I am not particularly excited about a cruise, or that I'm REALLY not excited about spending that much on a trip.  Anyone want to volunteer to give him a subtle hint?  I wanted to spend the night in Hermann.  He wants to spend a week in the Bahamas.  Are we on the same planet, here?  Not so much.

But I'm not 100% grumpy.  I read a new book (Hunger Games Vol. 2:  Catching Fire) and T-ball is cancelled, so I don't have to leap up and go to a game.  Too muddy.

I wish I had a good dinnertime plan.  I'm really in a meatloaf mood, but have never made one.  Plus, I don't have any beef thawed out.

Okay.  I must face the rest of Monday now.  Thank you for being my supportive listener.  :P
