Trying desperately to keep up with this one a day journal entry challenge. I'm one of those people who isn't overly attached to my promises and considers willpower to be an extravagance.
This is gonna be tough.
Today was a GREAT day. It started, strangely enough, with going to work (Job #2 with the publisher, not the sinking ship of a bookstore). My boss told me to look on my desk for a surprise, when I peeked into my office my gaze went straight for the Staples invoice and entirely missed the HUGE box with "Sony DVD" written on it. D'oh. My boss, for no reason (save for the note that said this was my Hanukkah, Christmas, and Birthday present for the next three years) gave me a DVD player. No shit.
He said that he wanted to be able to loan me DVDs and that it was about time that I joined the 21st century. I'd argue with him, but why? It was a pretty rocking offer and I was touched by the impromptu generosity. Wow! And thanks! What a rock and roll guy!
Today was also a half day at work since many of my business contacts were on vacation this week. I spent the remainder of the day sipping peppermint mochas from the "Eval" Empire and watching "Sex and the City" re-runs. Sloth may not be proud, but it sure as hell feels good. I, of course, should have been working on job applications, but *sighs* I swallowed my guilt and stayed in bed watching women more neurotic than me frolic and fuck in the Big City--I can't say that I regret the choice.
Currently I'm stuck at S's watching his co-dependent dog who can best be characterized as Epsilon minus. S didn't leave a leash for her and put a prohibition on having anyone over at the house, these things combined with the dog's utter inability to be alone pretty much renders me housebound (which I hate). I suspect that this crossed S's mind when he failed to leave the leash(twice!). Argh.
However, I take issue with catering to an animal's neuroses and so I left the dog with the WB's Thursday night lineup and escaped to have dinner with D. Dinner was good, the conversation afterwards was better, but the sex in the conference room of his office was the best. I have no idea how he and I are going to successfully negotiate this break-up when we get along so well and can't keep our hands off one another. Oy.
Anyway, that was my "day in the life" (or at least the highlights, riveting details about data entry were left out lest I excite and incite the masses)…I need to go to bed so that I can get up and work on….JOB APPLICATIONS! This whole working for a living leaves much to be desired. Vive la revolucion!
Yours, C.
