Odd Battles

Jul 05, 2006 17:59

Sometimes my life feels like a series of odd battles fought for no real purpose. I've been watching Evan deal with the politics and games at work, helping him fight a battle that never needed to take place at all. It seems like that might be wrapping up, hopefully in time for him to come with me to Regina on the weekend previously in question. Today, I tried to mediate a fight between two higher-up-than-me's at work about software requirements. I'm very sure it doesn't matter... it just puzzles me that a grown man can take assertations that a customer will want to do something so personally. I've been battling my own laziness, trying yet again to get my body into a semblance of "shape"... or at least aquire the ability to run a little ways without being winded to the point I think I'm going to die. Battling the heat to sleep, battling my inability to concentrate, battling my lack of desire to return to academia.

Sometimes, I just want to give up the battles, curl up with my cat, and declare enough to be precisely enough.

I miss you. We should, like, hang out sometime.
