So yeah, I went to the doctor today. I have a strep throat infection, antibiotics for 10 days and sick leave for at least the rest of this week. Woo! My throat hurts a lot, I can’t swallow or open it at all. It sucks, I’ve barely eaten anything since Sunday which is when I got sick.
Quite sleepy at work and it’s only 3pm, I’m done at 9 
Shouldn’t be too bad though I hope. 7 hour work shifts aren’t really bad, it’s just boring because not a whole lot is happening so it always seems like the shift drags on and on. I think I’m in need of a good passed out 12 hour sleep or something, it’s been a while since I had one of those. Been so stressed lately that I haven’t been sleeping very good at all. I worry too much, overanalyze things and read way too much into everything..
But new week now, and I’m hoping this one will be better to me than the previous ones have been. I’m going to go see my sister next week-end for 4 days, and I think that’ll do me good. I probably need a break or something, haha.
Right now I’m pretty content - I have amazing friends who stick with me through it all.
The patience game
Still no word from immigration, and to be honest, I’m really fed up with the whole thing now. It’s hurting my relationship along with all the other emo bullshit that goes along with it. Mark and I have not been doing too good lately as a result of it, but I think we’ll be okay. At least I hope so. All the uncertainty has made it quite difficult though.
Work’s been pretty okay lately. I’ve been working a lot of evening shifts, and I told my boss I actually preferred evening shifts, because if I go day and evenings like I have been, my sleep schedule gets completely messed up and the days I have to start at 7am I barely sleep… So for the rest of the month I only have 2 morning shifts, and the rest evenings which works out better since I’m a night person anyway.. And yeah, had Mark been here or something, I would’ve preferred morning shifts so that I’d actually have some time to spend with him, but it doesn’t matter much now.
I have about 3 piles of laundry to do, and I gotta make dinner too… My mom is with my aunt and uncle at our cottage this weekend, they’re visiting from Sweden so I’m home alone.. I like being home alone except I gotta do everything myself, haha.
So tired and at work.. At least I’m working the evening shift today and I didn’t have to get up butt early this morning so that helped, but I still didn’t get much more than like 6 hours of sleep -_-
My weekend was okay, I didn’t do very much, spent some time with my dad and sister since my sister went back to Fredrikstad (where she lives) yesterday, after being here for most of the summer.
Ali is okay, I talked to him on Friday. Sadly it seems like we can’t go on our trip because he’ll still be on sick leave and such But oh well, I guess at least I get a 4 day weekend out of it 
So it could be worse!
