October 2001

 1  Can't you stop this thing for a little while? I just want to catch my breath...
 2  She did, however, ask if I would post a guest entry from her, on the subject.
 3  Well, here we go. I promised you my theory on flirting and why nice guys win so rarely...
 4  The real word of the day today is BAH.
 5  I don't know what the heck I'm going to do today.
 9  I get a holiday, and it's still a Monday.
 10  No, it's not logical. But it makes perfect sense.
 11  "Please do not cuddle the elder god!"
 12  There, that's a nice little list of things I can do this weekend.
 15  And just like that, whoosh! the weekend is gone.
 16  But it was when I got home that the real goodness started.
 17  I think maybe a nap is in order, when I get home from work today.
 18  And now, having spent the last forty-five minutes writing that, while alternating with staring blankly into space, I think I'll post this and go back to staring blankly into space.
 19  This has got to be the lamest, stupidest, most pathetic morale and motivation scheme I've ever seen. Naturally, I couldn't wait to share it with you.
 22  You don't want to hurt people's feelings, so you don't say anything, even when they're driving you crazy.
 23  It's my own damn fault, and there's no point in trying to say otherwise.
 24  We drank plum wine, tried to teach Carl how to use chopsticks, told stories, and generally were extremely silly.
 25  (Speaking of tedious and boring, I should apologize for this journal entry. Coffee is definitely needed this morning.)
 26  So I'm going to write the damn test plans, and do the damn testing, and polish my damn resume.
 29  This is a thing I do not need to deal with early in the morning.
 30  The rest of the week is looking a bit busy.
 31  So overall, I'm pleased with how everything turned out, and I think the party will be a success.
