Yesterday ended up being all over the map. That headache I had just persisted all day as an underlying throb in my head. I took 500mg of Tylenol at some point and that helped, but it didn't get rid of it completely. I am wondering if it is partial eye strain. The doctor gave me new contacts but after checking them, she decided to order me the right eye in a slightly stronger script. So while I have contacts in right now, they are actually a little weaker in the right eye than she wanted which may be part of the strain. Also she showed me the difference with a +1 reading glass and I went from 20/25 to 20/20. This may all be self-inflicted. I will probably stop at Walgreens or some place to get some reading glasses for during the day to see if that helps. I have been fighting them forever but I can't take the headaches either.

Had a small battle with the client yesterday. I was on them last week to give me some direction regarding a particular issue and I kept getting pushed to the back burner. Yesterday morning I told them we had to deal with it otherwise their timeline was going to be impacted. That changed everything. Next thing you know I am in a two hour meeting and being blamed for not being done even though I have the email thread showing that I was asking for their direction last week. The one thing that pissed me off during that meeting was when the PM flat out said "Well it doesn't matter your schedule you will work around us". Excuse you? This is a holiday week. Which I probably won't get because she also made it clear that I am expected to be here Friday even if they are not. My bosses can kiss my ass. I will never work at this client again. And they seriously owe me for this shit. When this project is over I am going to be all over them for a recuperation weekend on the house.

Speaking of 'owing' the company, I did some math yesterday. The one upside to this project is that I am almost even on the expense advance I had to take. If I stay on this project through the end of the year, I will be only like $300 shy of what I owe them. This is a positive.

Got home after grabbing some groceries. TGF had dance and she called before she went off. She was having dinner with a friend after dance and she wanted to call before since she would be home late. She was being thoughtful because she knew if she called at 11 or later I would be asleep already but would try to wake up for her and then be grumpy. She is learning. Well done grasshopper.

Made pork chops for the kid and me. She had to watch a movie for her film class and then right a position on strong women in film. She chose to write about the end scene of Kill Bill 2. That's my girl.

While we were watching TV I got a text from T1. Her father passed away. I felt for her. She has been fighting this now for over a year I guess? How long ago did we date? Almost two years? Speaking of which, yesterday also marked the official two year mark of my divorce from X2 being final.

See? A major day without even being a major day.

And now on to Tuesday...
