disconnected facts and thoughts
Jan. 3rd, 2004 12:41 amthe cat is skulking beneath the desk
todd is busy diving down the dungeon in search of morgoth (ah the joys of t.o.m.e.)
my ankle hurts
people at work tonight were awful, in a magazine-scattering book-store-messying fiendish kind of way that kept us there past midnight
lately todd keeps saying i should quit my job. i don't want to, though. i like my job. there are things about it that could certainly be better, of course, but ~shrugs~ that's life. on the other other hand... i sometimes feel like my prodigious education and modest talents are somewhat going to waste. but what, oh what, should i be doing with them... that has always been the question. maybe i should have taken that career counseling stuff back in high school more seriously. it always just seemed like such a load of bullshit.
having a unique name is a good thing. it means that i can easily screen out phone calls from solicitors (not that we get very many these days, but there is a persistent set) because anyone who can't pronounce it, doesn't get to speak to me.
i think tomorrow i'm going to make todd go get a gallon of milk in the morning. i want hot chocolate, and we have no milk.
i wore my hair in a ponytail today. so far as i can tell, with my hair at this length, the only advantages to having it up in a ponytail are as follows: 1) i can make it swishy swishy back and forth across my neck 2) it's mildly amusing (to others, at least) when my bangs constantly fall into my face from the ponytail and (most advantageous of all, i think) 3) it feels absolutely great to let it down when i get home. ahhhhhhhh scalp.
it is time for the closing of the eyes, the snuggling into the bed, and the sleeping of the cislyn.
