A Spell Of Discontent

I made it through the day! Even though I woke up easily, got myself ready for work with plenty of time to spare, and even had time to stop for coffee, I still very much didn't feel like going to work. It didn't help that it was very rainy and kind of cold out. All I wanted to do was crawl back in bed with a cup of tea and a book... that wasn't possible, though. My overwhelming need to be dependable and responsible overrode my hedonistic need for convalescence.

The 1st was my 10 year anniversary with VS. While I was working, Jess brought me a thick envelope with my name on it. It was the catalogue of gifts I can pick out to commemorate my decade milestone. I was busy, so I didn't really have much time to look through it, but I will tomorrow. It's funny how I'm going through a spell of discontent right when this "milestone" rolls around. The funny thing is, what I did notice while flipping through is that the gifts aren't even as good as they were at my 5 year mark.

As I was getting ready to leave work, the husband texted, asking me to buy him a pumpkin pie. When I told him it was crazy to pay almost $20 for one when it's easy and way less expensive to make it yourself, he then asked me if I'd pick up the ingredients and make it for him... tonight. I got off at 10pm, after working all day. He was off yesterday and today. And to add insult to injury, he asked for homemade vegan whipped cream to go with the pie. How fucking inconsiderate is that?! I don't think he thought about it in that light, but I had texted him earlier in the evening telling him how tired I felt and that I couldn't wait to come home and get in bed. How does he get "I want to bake you a pie" out of that?

God protects children and fools. Not quite sure if Jason falls under child or fool, but the universe is looking out for his dumb ass (and I mean that in the most loving way possible).
