Well...today has been quite a day i must say. But first...let me just touch on yesterday. So yesterday...we had to go to Indy for a unit meeting to discuss exam guideline changes...and it was just ridiculous. It lasted from 10-3 with only 2 five minute breaks. Needless to say by the time we got back to the lab in Fort Wayne by 5:15 i was far past ready to be out of there. This is not a good week for me to be dealing with people who have differing opinions. Proof once again that i need to work on this whole patience thing.

On to the events of today. I'm sure you will all find this moderately amusing...and i'm sure i will think so too...tomorrow.

So for starters last night i had the most horrible dream that i'd rather not talk about. But bottom line...i slept like shit. So then i get up this morning and get ready to take a shower. So i hop in to the running water...only to see a spider with HUGE black eyes staring at me from the shower curtain. Well naturally i'm terrified of spiders so i FREAK out and jump out of the shower. Promptly getting water all over the bathroom floor. So i decide to knock it into the tub so it can get washed down the drain. So i lift up my clothe shower curtain so i can thump the plastic one and knock the spider off...only to discover to my horror that the spider is on MY side of the shower curtain! So i almost touched it! Well..i scream again b/c i'm a girl and then my dog comes charging into the bathroom barking his head off (which i think is his only act of bravery ever). After a few seconds of composing myself i lift the clothe shower curtain back up and look for the spider so i can knock it into the tub. But i don't see it anywhere. So i put my glasses back on and i'm looking everywhere. I'm looking in the tub...on the plastic shower curtain...on the clothe curtain...on the floor...on me, and i just don't see it anywhere! So i hop back in the shower and go up to the showerhead and get wet and look over only to see the spider right at eye level with me!!! So of course i scream once again...and jump out of the shower. Getting even more water everywhere. So i get ready for one more attempt to get rid of the spider. Well...i build up enough nerve to grab a hand towel and brush the spider into the tub. So I stand up on the toilet in case the spider goes onto the floor instead. So i hit the spider with the towel...but it has it's little webby thingy out and it's clinging to the shower curtain and then crawling back up its web. Well...finally i knock it into the shower...but i don't see it go down the drain. Well...after a little bit, i have enough nerve to get back in...and as i turn around to get the shampoo...i see the spider shooting out from under the bath mat into the drain. So that was quite the tramatic experience for me this morning. I came about thisclose to not taking a shower this morning. There was more to this day...but i don't really feel like relating it right now. So maybe tomorrow. Anyway...i've discovered that you can really tell you care about someone...when the only thing you want to do at the end of a bad day is come home and hear their voice.
