Strip me

Today was going so great. I had to be at work at 7:30, on only 3 hours of sleep, but I only had to work 3.5 hours at the annoying job. Then off to the fun job (a month ago, I never would have IMAGINED I'd be calling it "fun" or preferring it over anything else) It probably helped that I was drinking mountain dew like a crack addict all morning. For whatever reason, my spirits were high this morning and I was finally in a normal, bubbly, happy mood.

Then I called the annoying job to get my work schedule for next week. I was pretty excited to find out I got Monday off.. until I heard that I had to work 10 hours everyday for the rest of the week. For some reason, I just lost my shit. Probably because I've been sick, running on 3 hours of sleep, coming down off a mtn dew high, and the thought of how exhausted I'm gonna be next week is already making me wanna pull my flippin hair out. I'm probably being a tad dramatic. At the same time, I don't think anyone really realizes that 10 hours at this job is not the same as 10 hours at a normal job. If I had even the option to take an hour break and escape, it might be different. But I don't. Therefore, it sucks.

But what-the-hell-EVER. It's Friday and I'm gonna sleep myself stupid this weekend. I hope.

I heard this song last night and somehow it just seemed relevant to my life. Even if it's not, I like it. If you don't.. I don't care :)

Happy Friday!


Everyday I fight for
All my future somethings
A thousand little awards
I have to choose between
I could spend a lifetime
Earning things I don’t need
That’s like chasing rainbows
And coming home empty
And if you strip me,
Strip it all away
If you strip me,
What would you find
If you strip me,
Strip it all away
Ill be alright
Take what you want
Steal my pride
Build me up
Or cut me down to size
Shut me out
But I’ll just scream
Im only one voice in a million
But you aint taking that from me
Oh oh no you aint taking that from me

I dont need a microphone
To say what I been thinking
My heart is like a loudspeaker
Thats always on eleven
And if you strip me,
Strip it all away

If you strip me,
What would you find
If you strip me,
Strip it all away
I’m still the same
Take what you want
Steal my pride
Build me up
Or cut me down to size
Shut me out
But I’ll just scream
Im only one voice in a million
But you aint taking that from me
Oh oh no you aint taking that from me

Cuz when it all boils down
At the end of the day
Its what you do and say
That makes you who you are
Makes you think about,
Think about it
Doesn’t it
Sometimes all it takes is one voice
Take what you want
Steal my pride
Build me up
Or cut me down to size
Shut me out
But I’ll just scream
Im only one voice in a million
But you aint taking that from me
Oh oh no you aint taking that from me
