And so the dreary workweek begins. I don’t know how it’s going to go or anything, what with last week’s huge blowout with LB. I’m still not getting my money that I should be getting, which would be helping me a bunch, not for a much longer time, since her meddling. Mr. A. caught her boss though, before work, and told him everything that had happened. Her boss, to be frank, was boggled that she would make a big deal out of such things as eating at our desks, considering it’s been done since, and I quote, “day one.” Long before me were secretaries eating at their desks, and long after me they will continue. And so I sit here, with my orange as a snack for later, having gleefully eaten my cinnamon Life cereal (she hates cereal, so… yeah), awaiting lunch. Am I angry? No. Am I feeling a bit malicious and vengeful? Perhaps. But really, it’s not so much worth my time and effort as other things. Hence the cereal. It’s a little jab without actually going out of my way, considering I really like cereal, and it’s one of my favorites, to boot. It’s the effortless jabs that I like. :-D

I have this little deck of cards, titled 52 things to try once in your life. I bought it a long time ago, and I keep re-finding it at opportune moments. Like this morning. It reminds me, whether I’ve done the ones I read or not, that I need to cherish every day, and not fall into a rut. Ruts are bad, mmmkay? By making every day special, in some way shape or form, that’s how you make your life worth something. At least, that’s my take on it, but I may just be trying to compensate for being extremely ordinary, I’m not sure. I understand that I am pretty much a champion of mediocrity, and although I’ve fought that, it tends to be where I end up.

My cat got me really really good this weekend, I’ve got this huge scratch down my forearm. It looks kind of like a misguided suicide attempt. Apparently Ozzy decided I wasn’t quite fit for the world. I’ve survived, though, and all is well, despite my cat’s death wishes for me.

Time is doing something weird today… it feels like it’s going slow, but at the same time, everytime I look up, the clock’s jumped more than I thought it has. I guess it’s because I’ve had some email time, and popcorn time, and chat with the bosses time. I haven’t been stuck on the same thing all day, so it’s been interesting.

I really like Family Guy. I watched it last night, and I had forgotten, really, how much I enjoyed it. It’s just this random humor that just gets me. Oh… and something I learned while shopping the other day… they will make ANYTHING into a cereal. There’s oreo cereal, smores, finding nemo, I think I saw some scarface cereal in there…

I think I like being persona non grata around here… it’s very quiet. I don’t have to strain trying to listen to what ever it is she’s whispering at me. I don’t have to feign interest. I just sit here and do work.
