I did a bad bad thing, but I'm in love, so I don't care!

[rdfreak]

I didn't go to work today; reason: I'm sick of being treated so unfairly, and I refuse to work for this unfair employer of mine longer than I have too. I am currently reconnecting with Wise so I can hopefully start a greater search for another job.
Yesterday I guess, took the cake. I knew the two L's were making faces behind my back as they were talking about a situation where I was on the phone.
I wanted to go on me holiday next year, but if a new job means I can't, it will have to be worth it.
Do I like playing the sicky? absolutely not. but I couldn't bear be humiliated again today after three days straight! -- I was asked to go back to queens again on Monday; god knows why since F will be back!
I have spent last evening, and pretty much all today on YouTube recording Julie Andrews everything! -- there's quite a lot on there.
I go through phazes where I'm listening to her all the time, then I quietly slip back into life!
This one started from a forward which I received a few days ago with the words of a cover of "MY FAVOURITE THINGS" which she really did perform in Manhatten a few years ago; it was sooo funny!

I read on her wikipedia page that she's now 72.
There is such a difference between her younger-Sound of music, Mary Poppin'ish days and now, it's amazing. She doesn't unfortunately sing now due to that operation she had on her vocals, but she is still writing children's books!
The latest I've got of her singing was "THE PRINCESS DIARIES"; SHE WAS SINGINGG WITH Raven & Anne Hathaway: "Your Crowning Glory" WHICH IS JUST AN AWESOME SONG! i DID HEAR THOUGH THAT THEY HAD TO CHANGE THE KEY TO SUIT HER OLDER, HUSKY VOICE.
SO NOW, i HAVE MUSIC AND INTERVIEWS OF ALL AGES; i EVEN FOUND A RECORDING OF HER SINGING WHEN SHE WAS 12; THAT WAS AMAZING! UNBELIEVABLE IN FACT!
Wow, just wow! She's just one of these people that have always, (even since I first started watching Sound of Music, filled my ears with magic! She had an amazing singing voice, and even her speaking voice is addicting, totally!
honestly, without a doubt in this world, her and John Denver's voice have never compared with anyone else's; they're both just .. amazing in their unique ways. in fact, the pair did sing "Edelweiss" together, which I had recorded last night! .. wow!
I can't say enough about them both!
OK off I now go to have me a chicken kiev and some roast vegies (thanks to my wonder-nan)!
btw, my butcher order came yesterday, and I will be receiving my Casio-sk-100 next week!
til next time, RdFreak

if you read my journal you know im dealing with a bitch at work also. i am even applying for a job in a different location, a lateral move, to get away from her. it SUCKS when you hate going into work because of something like that. ive been there 2 years and im fed up! but i want to stay with the company, so a lateral move was my only other alternative.

yeh you're right. I can't understand why people have to be so horrible, and they call themselves a "professional". I don't know why, it is, that they find one person who they claim they don't mind, yet are in constant waiting for them to do something wrong, and then pick and pick; humiliate and humiliate til they rejuce them to tears! Some people are just not worth it! why go around in life, feeling missserable because of an insigificant person? and as you say, you souldn't have to dread going to work.
