ETA: Okay, so uh. Never mind, with all the inanity I do have other things I want to say.
And that's mostly--guys, seriously. If you have a problem with me, please come and tell me directly. You can tell me anonymously--I have critposts up for my characters at CFUD--you can email me (nekokoban at gmail) or PM me when I'm on IRC, whatever. I may be hurt and upset at first, but I will listen. I am more uncomfortable with the idea that I am making other people unhappy and uncomfortable, frankly, and I would much rather be told so I can make corrective steps rather than just ... let things fester. That never has helped anyone, as far as I know.
I'm not saying I don't have problems with people! I'm only human, and I get irritated/upset/angry about things, sometimes irrationally! But I also try to speak up and tell the person I'm having problems with. Sometimes it takes me a bit to get my courage up, because I'm a horribly non-confrontational person, but I still will say something. And I really hope people would do the same for me.
My two cents--back to fluff and blather. [/ETA]
ETA2: Dear program that is necessary for my day job! PLEASE STOP NEEDING TO BE RESET AFTER EVERY SINGLE TASK. :E It's a good thing I've already made my number goals for this month, s'all I'm saying. SOB. [/ETA2]

Okay it's mostly that I have been trying to transition back to a 9-5:30 schedule, because--as much as I like being done at 4:30, I don't usually get home till anywhere from like 5:45-6 anyway, and I hate waking up before 7 if I can utterly avoid it. Since my manager is understanding, our schedules are usually flexible, so I am testing out this new schedule for the week! SO FAR, two days in, it feels pretty good--though I know I will probably grow more dissatisfied as traffic levels return to post-holiday madness and also in the winter, when it gets dark at 4. :|a Plus my chiropractor appointments are at 5:30 so at least sometimes I will have to come in early so I can leave early. Earlier. Either way. I think this will help with my energy levels overall, though, which in turn will hopefully help with everything else I have been tired or blah about lately. Baby proactive steps, yay! \o/
(On the downside, yesterday I also had my first migraine in months and that was terrible. ;o; I don't get them very often, but boy do I hate everything when I do. :x)
Further on the plus side,
katmaxwell is magical and amazing and got my wireless working in my apartment finally. \m/ I can bring my computer into the kitchen and look stuff up without tripping over cords now! ;^;b I still mostly spend my time in the living room with the magical noisebox, but now I have options and that is nice. This icon is mostly for her. :|b I also ended up rewatching the first two episodes of Supernatural over the weekend, which reminds me how much I really did like the show--and it isn't that I dislike it now, but the show as it is now has lost a lot of what originally drew me to it. (And I mean, I enjoy religious fiction, so the show as it is now still has a story that is very appealing to me, but it is no longer really DRR DRR THIS SHOW WAS MADE FOR ME like it was when they were hunting boogeymen and poltergeists and so forth.) As a result, I am looking for fic again. It's kind of nice. /o/
I am incredibly looking forward to Friday off. I am probably going to pick up at least some extra hours at work, but it's holiday overtime and therefore things will be kind of comfortably slow and no commute. I think I will treat myself to a tasty dinner of some sort. DOES ANYONE IN SEATTLE WANT TO GO WITH ME. Especially you people who have not seen my new apartment yet--it's not exactly all unpacked, BUT MY LIVING ROOM IS PRESENTABLE FOR HUMAN COMPANY! Yeah. \m/
Cravings for a Starbucks Lemonade Tea and braindeath from anticipating vacation aside (there is work to do, but I am so scatterbrained that I am amazed I have any semblance of coherency), life is pretty good. :|a Things are going well, and they will hopefully get better in time.
