Wednesday Morning

My husband has been in LA for a few days and I have been coming home from work, eating Frito, cheese, mayo and jalapeno sandwiches for supper. I bought a hardback book of short stories at the dollar store, then filled my coffee table with assorted paints, chalk, glue and various embellishments for some art fun.  Each  night I come home from work and paint the pages in the book then collage over each page.  Why?  Oh hell people, you know how obsessed I get when I'm creating crap.

I've discovered this week that my new boss is very moody.  Uh sorry young man, I don't do "moody."  I find it very startling when moody people flip flop between moods.  I always want to say "hold on there, can you bring yesterdays person back?  I was getting into the groove of that guy."  Phone slamming, the day after joke telling seems to throw my spirit into a whirlwind.  It's a familiar feeling in the gut of a person who has lived with a violent alcoholic.  It's also not tolerated in my company so we'll see what happens.

I am ready to see what this new day brings. It's so new that the tags are still on it.

Oh dear. My boss is also moody. It is not fun. And like you say, it is very unsettling to a person who has lived with a violent alcoholic (or 2).

Moody sucks. I stay predictably crabby, day after day.

No comment on the sandwiches.

Ugh....I think I might be moody. Not the phone slamming type but the happy and then crying type. Gah!

The collage work interests me, I do that kind of thing.

I have had to work with some Jekyll & Hyde types and setting boundaries was like building the Great Wall of China. Stay safe Pam.

That sandwich sounds very much like the ingredients that go into pimento cheese (well minus putting in the roasted red peppers) the fritos provide crunch, which is important in sandwiches in my mind.

I put chips on sandwiches all the time because I love the crunchy.

Hell I'm moody. Pray that my co-workers don't suffer my moody.. ok? I'll pray that you don't suffer your bosses moody too much either.

Sounds like an interesting new thing going on a work. You and MC have something more in common.
