Andrea and the...

Oh, yesterday. Yesterday was one of those days that needs to be 

knocked out cold then shoved under the bed where no one can ever find it again.

Everything started out okay...my breakfast was tasty, my coffee was hot,

and I got to catch up on the first few episodes of Teen Mom 2,

after I somehow neglected to notice that the new season had aired

(why did no one tell me this?!). 

But things took a turn at lunch. Whilst cooking Ramen noodles

(if you can call the process required to prepare Ramen noodles "cooking"),

I bent over the sink to drain some of the hot water (because this girl doesn't

like her noodles to be drowning) and I poured it directly onto my finger, 

which hurt like nobody's business. But I soldiered on. Right on to 

the next task for the day - mastering the ROES ordering system for MpixPro.

First up on my order list was our Christmas Cards, which I'd beautifully designed that morning.

But ROES was all like, "Sucks to suck, Andrea. I'm going to make your photo all blurry

for no explicit reason, just to confuse and frustrate you." After HOURS of tinkering

and frustration building up into one serious muscle ache in my shoulders, I finally 

got the hang of this, maybe kinda. By that time, I was more than ready to hit up 

the gym to workout some of my tension (because despite attempts to teach Yoshi

how to massage me, he has yet to really pick up the skill). 

And all was well in workout land...until the lights (which run on a lame timer that maxes out at 60 minutes - how am I supposed to do a 90 minute workout, lights?!) shut off on me with 

three minutes left, leaving me in a pitch black gym while I finished up my elliptical workout,

which made things supremely awkward when someone else came in.

(Oh, hey, I'm the weirdo who works out in the dark)

Post workout, I was ravenous. Like, watch-out-Dobby-because-I-might-eat-you ravenous. 

So as soon as I got back to the apartment, I tossed a frozen veggie burger onto the stove

and went to watch the news. And I waited. And then, I went to the kitchen expecting one

delicious veggie burger awaiting me, and I found that apparently the burner I selected

is broken. Seriously?! I just wanted to eat da foods!

I ended the day with a big scoop of ice cream and a hefty

dose of "lay on the couch and relax", which is an area where Yoshi is able to help me out.

Bring it, Tuesday. I hope you're a heck of a lot better than Monday was.
