When I come around...
Yesterday I had a decent day. I started off feeling like i was, well, going to weep. Then (due, no doubt, to some Christmas miracle) I was given the opportunity to email back and forth all day. With whom, you ask? Ligwa and Jason. And thanks to the two of them they pulled me out of my blue little funk and made my day just a little more worth it. Ok, I lied. A lot more worth it. Work itself was kinda dull - data entry (the usual) pockmarked with my internet liasons...but on the other end I'm almost done here.
Silent Night, Holy night, shepherds quake at the sight
...of Rabbit and I at the dinner last night. The food WAS phenominal (even though I only got the TINIEST piece of salmon), and we played bingo. Nobody sat with us (Lisa, Me, Rabbit and Tim Leung) - except this wonderfully old couple, who were just the sweetest people on the planet. If I didn't have such great grandparents already I fully would adopt them. There was another couple sitting with us, but they left. Said goodbye to the older couple, didn't even look at us younger ones. Was severely unimpressed. So I'm just going to (be wonderfully mature and) return the favour by not even looking at her when i see her at the office. Granted, considering that you could REALLY tell that she didn't like the people she was with(ahem US). Program was ok, except the songs were sung in WAY too high of a key (sorry - most men aren't basses and women mezzo soprano), which resulted in a lot of off-key harmony. Oops. Props to Kora, who came (even though she wanted pizza. Which would have been nice, too.)
Expectations
Had a bunch of really weird dreams last night. But the weirder thing is that I woke up at five - because I felt someone put their hand on my back. Internal dialogue as follows:
'huh? Dad? (Hears car door slam, dad leaves) than....everyone is asleep....mmmm....I want to be asleep. Why am i not? right. Back. uuuhhh....what was that? (drifts in and out of consciousness) HOLY CRAP THAT MUST BE A HUGE SPIDER!
At that point I wound up running my hands over my back, into my hair and onto the surrounding blanket. No spider. I wonder what it was....ugh.
Anyhow, work to do today, can't stay that much longer. And so, I will leave you with some parting words of wisdom:
Playing roller coaster around strangers generally results in the strangers fearing you.
