Hmmm...vurt's being really crap today - like its taken me over an hour to edit an email and I haven't finished it yet. *sigh* It the link to Davnet somewhere. They are crap. So I'm typing this on my work machine and I'll upload it to vurt when/if the link picks up.

Strange mood today. I'm feeling kind of guilty, because Bruce has yelled at someone for something I said. And he is vicious. I was only doing my job. But that is never an excuse. I could have been politer I guess....

It's easy to write, its hard to say something. Or to write something worth reading. I think I'm going to go start reading that Programming Basics book that Mikey loaned me, as I can't do alot else today.

Attended a girly nite last nite. It was very strange, caught up on some gossip etc, ghod I'm out of the loop at the moment. I'm also this far away from resigning as rocky organiser. Let alone all my roleplaying committments. We watched 'romantic comedy' type vids, one of which was quite serious, but neither of which was my taste in movies. I'm not very girly and I'm not very good at girly, so it was a weird place to be.

I watched Dogma the nite before, now that seriously rocked. It was a very cool movie. Played with some interested concepts, and also stretched my knowledge of christian mythology alot. It feels good to think. I don't stretch my brain as much as I'd like to. I'm seldom placed in situations where I have to, and I which I was more, I think the thing I miss most about being an arts student is the long rambling philosophical conversations, these days when visiting someone, you are more likely to end up watching vids than having conversation, maybe thats why I enjoy road trips so much. A captive audience if you will.

And I mean this job hardly challenges me. Although they are talking about giving me samba training which would be good. Or at least something to bend my brain on. I think I'm having a lonely day today. I had Mikey in the office on Tuesday, followed by PCIT and lots of people yesterday, so I've been socialised and now I'm back to being by myself. And being lonely again.

Aveline arrived last nite, it was very good to see her. Mieky went out somewhere last nites, its was one of the few times I haven't spent all evening with him recently. While the break was good, the fact that he showed up around midnite and crawled into my bed was a very good thing, he hugs really good all nite. *purrring kitten* And the cats slept on the bed as well. I really need to buy a new futon tho. My old one is getting really festy.


Later in the day now. Still bored and still have an hour of worktime to go. And a student just asked me a question, I can tell he was disgusted with my answer. Talking to an ex-flatmate on IRC, she wont bring me pizza either. Mikey is in a grumpy mood because he broke a tooth, I hope he cheers up soon, or this road trip wont be much fun. I think he may be sulking a bit....

I'm starting to get nervous about this road trip, and visiting parents thing. I'm really not sure where things stand with Mikey and that makes things confusing. And I'm not sure what his patience/tolerance levels are. Don't know how he'll deal with my family. Lee is pretty hard to deal with, and I'm being nervous about going home, and I'll probably be all,are you having fun and over anxious and I don't want to be, I'm going home to relax goddamn it. Need to do laundry tonite, and need to remember to pack green fuzzy blanket and new pillow. Do you ever get that really ominous sense of anticipation, like something bad is about to happen.
