Woman, thy name is inconsistence.
It's not like I haven't had spare time to spend on this page. I just haven't
felt happy with anything I've created, pencil or mouse. It just didn't
appeal to me, because I disliked a few things about the page layout. I
spent hours changing things. Once I finished a single project, 45 minutes
later it would look a little off. So I forced myself to stop where I was
and put the things I had done onto the page. I cringe at certain things
because I don't feel that it really conveys the tone of who I am, maybe
a little overdramatic on the main page. Anyhow, at least I was able to
satisfy myself somewhat.
In light of all this, tomorrow's entry will be a poll, and I'm going to
place each of the main page image maps I've created this week, and ask
your opinion. I don't have the energy tonight.
Yesterday morning I started reading email at work and read the announcement
that IT Man and That Bitch were "let go". I felt a twinge
of pity for IT because his wife is pregnant and it was very, very sudden.
His skills won't go for wanting for to long though. It's That Bitch
that's probably going to have a problem. I have no pity for her, karma
has a way of slapping you on the ass when you least expect it. She rode
me hard and long everyday. I looked forward to her vacation time and when
she was sick it was like a snow day for me. I will not be missing her.
Today's horoscope. Hell yeah.
There is a small thing going on for That Bitch after work tomorrow.
I felt that it would be hypocritical of me to go, or even sign her card
this afternoon, though now that I think about it, some people may take
that the wrong way. Who the hell cares. Really, that's the last thought
I'm giving her. Really.
I'm so tired all of the time now, I have so little to give to anything
that isn't aboslutely necessary, I managed somehow to keep the apartment
form falling down around us, but we have laundry up to our knees in the
bathroom hallway. I'd be embarrassed for someone to see our apartment
right now. THough to other people it's not that bad. I just have to have
things at a certain level of cleanliness, or I go stir crazy. I cleaned
out my fies at work this afternoon, because I could focus on creating
new ones. It was good that I did, I found a certain file that Finance
had been looking for for 8 months. God damn, this is exciting isn't it!
Like I said, I've been mighty slothful.
I found out Saturday night that I actually owe taxes for the first time
in my life. I should die now, while I'm young and beautiful and I've never
had the ultimate adult responsibility of paying taxes.
It's depressing, it makes me feel like I've passed another milestone that
I didn't think I'd see for a few more years. Adam tries to make me accept
that it's a good thing to owe a small amount and get more money during
the year. I understand, but it doesn't help my state of mind about it.
So that's it, that my entire store of energy for the day. I leave now
to crawl beneath a quilt and read quietly until I fall asleep with the
pages splayed open across my chest.
Why can't I do that all day instead of giving my time to a big fat company
that's probably going to fire more people from my department? I envy the
women of the past that weren't browbeaten when they decided not to work
after marrying. Of course Adam says it's because I'm lazy. I'd like to
say that I'm old fashioned, but if I were a betting man...I'd put my money
on Adam.
