BATTERED AND BRUISED!
The weirdness continues...
Didn't wake up till 3:30 this afternoon! I was supposed to be at work at 11:00, and when I got up, there were 6 messages from Pete on the machine. Man was he pissed! I call him, and he's like SUPER pissed, like more pissed than I've ever heard him, talking about he took a chance hiring such a young guy, but I seemed like a responsible kid, and then I turn around and stab him in the back, blah, blah, blah. I apologized like crazy, told him I had a really bad day yesterday, not that it's an excuse, but I'm really sorry, and I'll be there in 20 minutes. He says don't bother, he called Toby in on his day off. He was about to fire my ass, but I think I kind of calmed him down eventually. Turns out he even came over to the apartment and was pounding on my door for like 5 minutes, and I never even heard a thing.
And that's not even the freakiest part. As I'm talking on the phone with Pete, I realize that my whole body aches, like the day after a super-intense workout, but like 10 times as sore. I can barely move my neck around. I go to scratch my leg and YOW! I look down and there's a black bruise the size of a baseball on my right thigh. Now I'm like almost panicking.
After I get off the phone with Pete, I think about calling Mom for some advice, but then I realize she'd just freak out and take me to the ER, and then i'd have to hear about it for the next 6 months how she had to pay $1500 or whatever, even though she told me all along that those damn video games are bad for your eyes and rot your brain and blah, blah, blah, so I don't tell her about it.
I dunno, maybe that old guy was right. Maybe I havne't been taking care of myself lately. I mean I've never really been fat or anything, but I guess I still don't have the healthiest eating habits. Nate eats nothing but brown rice and tofu and all that kind of crap, and he's always bragging about how he never gets sick and hasn't been to a doctor in 3 years and all that stuff. Maybe I should get some advice from him. I dunno. I'm sure I'll be fine. Just chalk it up to a weird, messed up weekend. Hey, it happens. And hey, I still played NFL 2k4 and Rob hasn't, so it wasn't all that bad I guess.
