This week has been neverending, but in a good way.

My entire body is sore, my feet and ankles are a bit swollen, and my spine is in agony, but it's been a good week.
I've been working nonstop, which is the reason for all the pain.
Despite a sharp pain every time I take a step, I'm so grateful to everyone asking me first (before anyone else) to cover their shifts.
They knew I needed them, and they stepped up.
It's funny, but they seem so proud of me for getting everything together, and for the choices I've made since I started working there.
I called my mom yesterday on my break from work (which was only 15 minutes, but hey, shit happens), and she was actually surprised that I remembered.
The only reason I didn't call her in the morning was because I knew I had a 13 hour shift, and I definitely needed to sleep as long as possible in order to deal with that.
What shocked me though, was that she told me she'd talked to my brother earlier that day, and he'd told her that he's proud of me.
I think I've only ever heard my brother say that twice in my lifetime regarding me.
We may talk rarely, but sometimes he makes up for all the fighting we've done in our 22 years as brother and sister by saying stuff like that.
E and I were both on doubles yesterday, and we had a lot of time to talk.
Her boyfriend, who worked as one of the dishwashers at our job, got fired.
And over the stupidest reason.
Someone complained to our boss that he took his cigg breaks with E.
So she fired him.
She also fired one of the cooks, because she found out he was stealing cases of food from our restaurant.
Which is fucked up, but he was such a nice guy and a great cook.

Oh well.
But for right now, EM and I are watching tv.
We were talking earlier about Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds, and how my favorite part of the movie, The Proposal, was when she dances with Betty White to Get Low.
What's weird about that?
EM changes the channel, and guess what movie is playing?
The Proposal.
Guess what part it's at?
The dance scene.
Too funny.

Needless to say, I'm in relax mode.
Nothing has been able to get my mood down lately.
And I'm lovin life.
