When I woke up today I was glad that it wasn't too late so that my boyfriend and I could spend the morning together. He made us nice breakfast sandwiches then we spent some time on the couch, with our coffee, talking. The morning went really fast and I didn't get much done besides folding laundry from the day before. I can't believe that it's actually evening week again, it seems to always come up so fast. I don't mind evening week because I like the break from getting up so early and the drama of day shift, but the same problem of loneliness always seems to arise. I think it's just the beginning of the week which is the hardest, I mean, once I get settled into the routine I'm fine.
I was pleasantly surprised when I got to work today to find out that a co-worker I really enjoy working with was scheduled. My weekend partner unfortunately wasn't there because she had broken her leg two weeks prior:( The night went by pretty fast due to some unforeseen issues, first being that a refrigerator decided to die during the shift forcing us to move a lot of items around. Secondly, an entire shelving unit in the department fell on one of the employees! Luckily, no one was hurt but it was very un-nerving and required a lot of rearranging. Other than those two unusual situations it wasn't that busy so it was a fairly decent evening.
When I got home I spoke with my boyfriend for a little bit on the phone and then watched a few more episodes of "House of Cards". I can't say that I was in the best mood when I got on the phone with my boyfriend tonight so it wasn't that long of a conversation. I think the reason is that this co-worker I hadn't seen in a while started asking me a lot of questions about how our relationship was going. It just lead into questions about the future and it got me a little bit down. He also threw in a comment I certainly wasn't prepared to hear, it was something along the lines of "at your age you'd expect a commitment at his point". Ugh, those were dreaded words to hear. I told him that we have been discussing things and it seems like we're on that track, but it's just frustrating when I have to come home and think about it all by myself. I'm very close with this co-worker so in no way am I upset with him and sometimes it helps getting outside opinions.
Another thing I'm a little bit down about is my weight. Since I've gotten back from Florida I've barely been working out and it's really starting to show. I've got to be better about not eating between meals. Tonight at work I had a Lean Cuisine but when I got home I had pretzels and leftover ice cream from a few weeks ago:( I guess because I was feeling a little sorry for myself I just wanted to come home and eat. Well, honestly, I really wanted to come home and have a beer but I don't like getting into a habit of having a beer every night, so I thought food was the next best thing. With that being said I'm going to get going.
