2000-04-04 Crazy insane, life has been. My apologies for those of you who've checked in during the past week. One of my bosses, the department head, and a high-level person I seem to do a lot of work for in Marketing left the country for a business trip, so between rushing to get those three out of the office and 'holding the fort down' since they've been gone, I've hardly had a chance to read my email, let alone write anything down. I've taken to carrying a notepad with me so that at any time, I can write down a shopping list, things to do, a design idea, an errant thought. That's all I've been able to write for the past week and a half. And even though it's in my pocket lately out of necessity, I think it's a good habit for me to get into. Normally I really hate life the week after the the change to (from?) daylight savings time. In the past it's taken at least a week for me to know what time it is. This year it's been ok so far, except that I feel like I just got here and started working at lunchtime, and haven't left before 8PM any night this week. Tonight I'll leave just about on time. Really I will. Speaking of, I did actually call in "well" to work a week-an-a-half ago. Didn't feel guilty about it at all, even though it fell right before this crazy insane stuff started happening at work. I was going to do it again this past Friday or Monday, but the crazy insanes hit again -- I worked at home this past weekend, while the Boyfriend snored on my bed after a takeout sushi feast. If I've been dealing well with the time change, it's to make up for dealing so poorly with the unseasonably warm weather. While the heat encourages the cute guys of the City to go in shorts and tank tops (or less), it's usually too warm for me to spend any time outside (being a bit of a heliophobe). I was lured outside to watch a building a block from my house burn down. Quite dramatic and frighteningly beautiful -- the huge column of roiling black smoke pouring up into the blue-orange-pink sunset. If I think of it, I'll post any good pictures I took of the disaster when I get the film back. Since it was warm, there were a lot of people out and around to watch. People like to watch disasters. Why else would you people come here if they didn't? :-) * * * It's Depression Dot Com, As Net Workers Wilt * * * Amen.
