Thanks, Dana. Internet is slow and I don't want to blow through all my mom's data, but maybe I will take a quick spin through the archive later and download a few stories to read offline.

It looks like they rebooked me for FIRST CLASS, ha ha, what? Maybe I won't try to get an earlier flight.

Bummer for being stuck, shrift, but yay for first class?

I just threw out a couple of cookies because I really didn't like the taste. I don't think I've ever met cookies I disliked like that before.

My office is dead. I should go do more filing.

At work, A TON to do. Luckily not much going on and not many ppl here so I can slowly go through things and try to get completely through some meticulous tasks without mistakes.

One thing at a time, complete it, then pick up the next paper in the pile and start on it. It seems each thing on my desk needs four or five different tasks to take care of.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

This morning was busy, and depending on what the response is to something I just sent, the rest of the week may be as well.

Fingers crossed that doesn't happen.

Just got a phone call about a project I worked on over a year ago, and no one there knows who their current contact is...and nor do I! I don't even know if any of the folks I worked with are still at our company??

Also, my friend canceled our New Year's Eve plans and now I am afraid I will sit at home and feel sorry for myself. I'm into the idea of chill NYE but not THAT chill.

Everyone has left the office except me. I could easily stay all day, but I won't. I am going to do the 5 things that I really need to be in the office to do and then I am going to take home a bit more and do from the comfort of my recliner. My desk is still a disaster.

I've got a pretty normal workload today, maybe a little on the light side. OTOH, finding it hard to concentrate - doing my work and figuring out what work needs to be done are both pretty difficult, so I may be totally off about how much I should be doing...

I'm fantasizing about being at home, curled up on the couch under a blanket with some takeout soup. Unfortunately, having trouble figuring out how to make that happen.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
