there was a staff picnic today for my former department. i wasn't going to go but it's friday and i didn't feel like working much so i went over to the picnic. plus, i worked for the department for most of the year so i earned going to that picnic. last year was the first one. there were some games but i didn't participate much last time. since i'm no longer connected, i thought i'd bond by participating. wow, i'm surprised at myself. i joined just about everything and stayed until the end. i was in the sun too long for a vampire. i kinda hurt my ankle playing dodgeball. then that same leg got fucked up during the 3-legged race because they tied us together with really thin string like kite string. i have a ring around my left and some rope burns. yeah, it sucks. i also played horseshoes and volleyball. my wrist hurts a bit from volleyball. as a lesbian, that's not good. you don't ever want to damage your hands/fingers/wrists!

when i got back from work, i found that the motor for my car window went out. this sucks! i rely on street parking. i don't want anyone jacking my car. plus i have so many things planned this weekend. i don't have time to get it fixed. so then it was a series of frantic phone calls to sort everything out. i hope it all works out!
