A Day of Inconsistencies

well, this was a day.  i've said that before, i'll have said it again before much longer, i'm certain, but it was a day indeed.  i have to start this one official like, to stay on track with my promise to myself.

see, i was up early, but i passed out early last night.  around 7 i'd have to say.  old man crossed into my body on the 15th last month, is all i can say to that.  so i prayed and i got my ass out the bed and i read and took my pills and insulin and had coffee and got out the house.  but first, i danced. 

YES.  i put on 3 songs that ran about 15 minutes and started my dance routine again.  i have to put some work into this shit, have to make an effort to move forward or i'm going to lose the ground i've gained.  so i danced.  and i got dressed and i went to work. grabbed some crap for breakfast along the way, because i don't like to start a work day without something in the gut. 

now, the first thing to remark upon.  last week, friday to be exact, the Boss and i were informed of a change in personnel.  as in, i would not be the aide on our bus any longer.  it was a switch for secret reasons.  whole lotta BS, as the old Funkadelic song said, but regardless.  other aides were switched as well, to try to cloud the issue, and there was some cock and bull story about how it was a problem with one of the aides, and things had to be worked out, and anyway Dee (the Boss) was on a bus that was slated to lose its aide anyway, and blah blah bullshit.  so yesterday, Monday, i was on a different bus, with a different driver riding a different route.  it didn't bother me so much, not the driver or most of the new clients.  what bothered me was the fact that once again i was being lied to.  whether directly or by omission, it was a deceit.  and i don't want to keep just putting up with that bullshit. 

but we informed the office people the parents were not going to be happy with the change, and of course they weren't.  as well, there is a client on the new route who has trouble keeping his hands to himself.  he has hit not only the driver and the previous aide but his father as well.  i was only willing to put up with exactly one day of that, and then i was going to file an incident report because i wanted to pre-emptively cover my ass for when i snatched a knot on this young man's carcass.  nonetheless, it wasn't yet required...

because today i was switched back to my regular bus. 

and no one had been informed about it, it was just on the new schedule.  which was posted after hours apparently.  and that is more of the kind of stuff that you just get tired of.  again, i have my theories as to what is going on, but no point speculating when the explanation is just one conversation away. 

and i have no idea where i'm going to be in the morning either.

so, that was my day.  and the night has again ended in exhaustion.  not only danced but i did weights at the gym.  i've eaten and i've done dishes and taken trash to the curb.  i think i'm about done, but i wanted to write, and i hae to thank Jehovah for watching over me.
