So I am up earlier than I meant to be. The alarm was set for 6:30am. I woke up at 5:45am to go to the bathroom. I decided that I could definitely go for another 40 minutes of sleep. But I was congested. Horribly. I laid down and it made it even worse! Normally when I lay down I get slightly congested atleast. But when already congested it gets painfully so. So I got up for some Sudafed. But then I decided that between the remaining congestion and the time...that I should just stay awake. So here I am.
Well I stayed later after work yesterday because my boss was reasonably close and I really, really wanted my review done. She showed up and handed me my review. Let me try to tell you how the rating system works. Each category has a scale of 1 through 6. However...6 is supposed to be impossible to get. I've heard the same thing from reps from other companies...where the highest number is not supposed to be given. I have no idea why they offer 6 when it is impossible to get it. It should just stop at 5. But anyway...I got about 60% 3's which are supposed to mean "performs as expected" and 40% 4's which is supposed to mean "performs beyond expectations". She told me that since these are the first batch of reviews since she became our District Manager that she had to keep her numbers lower. But apparently my overall score is very, very good and much higher than any other one she's given. But this will be taken into consideration along with the super-positive writeup she'd given me. I am a little over 4 months away from my one year review so she said that in two months she will give me another positive writeup and then on my next review she will bump up several of the numbers which will show "improvement", set me up for another decent raise (since that will be my last raise until my 2 year anniversary with them) and won't put her into hot water as far as giving overly high scores on her reviews. The review doesn't allow as much room in the way of personal comments but that's what the writeup is for. It allows the District Manager to really state their personal thoughts on the rep's work. So we'll see what my raise turns out to be. If she faxed it in last night from home (or alteast from one of her stores today) it just may go through on this weeks pay check. If not, hopefully it will go through next week.
So I am feeling pretty good about all o' that.
My head should be arriving tomorrow. I have to go down after work to sign a form with our Rental Office that says that they may sign for and hold any packages that are delivered to me while I am at work. They try to get us at our door but if no one is here to answer they will go to the office and see if the person had signed one of those forms and then they'll leave it there for us to pick up. It is supposed to be delivered tomorrow. So filling out the form would mean that I could just go into the office after work to see if it's there and take it if it is. Hopefully I will be home whenever they try to deliver the cab because that box will be MASSIVE. But Musicans Friend offers FedEx tracking so I can see what day it should arrive and atleast let the office know that there will be a big box arriving for me but that I'd be there right after work to pick it up. You can bet that I won't wait! haha I think I know which head I will want to get. It can more than handle the power that the head will put out. It is a different make than the head but I won't care. Most of the cabs made by the maker of my head won't actually handle all of the watts that the head puts out and frankly that's a waste to me!
Man am I starved. Need to get something to eat on my way to work I guess.
Nothing much else going on right now. Just want to get through work hahaha
Have a great day!

So my team lost again. The Eagles Vs. Saints game was awesome and nerve wracking but we couldn't overcome too many penalties and what many believe to have been a ton of bad calls on the part of the officials. But it happens. We're bumped to 4-2 but that still isn't too, too bad. As long as we rebound and hit our next opponents hard.
I do not feel like updating my Eagles module just yet but I most likely will when I post later.
And for the second evening in a row I am experiencing wild motion sickness which I normally never get. I do not know what the cause is exactly. I think it has something to do with the Cellulitis that I'd had in my left leg. I need to get medical to have it looked at if it is the case because something BAD is up if that is the case.
That's it for now. I will be back after dinner and a movie later on this evening.
