2513: In My Memory
When I checked my hours when I went in last night, it said 18.10 [.10 hours, not ten minutes], which--considering the math--couldn't possibly be right. I worked three 8+ hour shifts this week-to-date prior to tonight, and I didn't have any missing punches, so I can only figure the timeclock for what reason doesn't update a shift's hours until the day after a shift. This pretty much negates any point to the WTD function, of course XB
I figure I actually have a little under 2.5 hours left, which would make going to work tonight pointless... unless they pull that "Your overtime has been approved!" bullshit again, which would be disappointing X/ 'cause I'm just a little bit tired and wouldn't mind my usual post-MythBusters nap 9_9
Slowpoke must have seen my "I forgot to wash laundry again" FMA shirt before, since he stopped me and asked if I'd seen it. [Or, maybe he thought, "Julie = Japanese = ♥s anime!" =p which is DURR] I said, "ハガレン？鋼の錬金術師？" and he kinda looked at me funny, so I explained, "Full Metal Alchemist. The Alchemist of Steel." Then he did the "oh, yah :D" thing. I asked him if he watched a Spanish dub or Spanish subtitles, but he said no, Japanese voice with English subtitles. Which reminds me to watch La Máquina de Bailar and El Laberinto del Fauno [Pan's Labyrinth] again, if I'm going to be kicking myself in the face with Pimsleur again =p
"¡Qué lastima!"
The biggest reason I haven't finished even the book I technically finished writing almost two years ago now is the delayed-reaction epiphanies I seem to have. Like, last night [yesterday afternoon] when I went to bed, I drifted off for a bit then suddenly remembered my forgotten co-worker's name =O just out of the blue! It felt right, but I wasn't sure until I talked to Frizz and asked if she had seen Bruce* and she said she had.
*not actual name, though I wonder whether I'm being TOO careful with this anonymity crap if I'm not saying anything remotely harmful about someone
Also, last night, I was thinking about a part in ND where I was stuck, then it suddenly occurred to me that I was thinking inside this preconceived box =p and why didn't I just break the fourth wall like I already had to do once before XB [that is, the puzzle seemed harder than it was in that Hotel Dusk way, which happens]
I keep realizing things about my worlds, though, that make them even more refined after hours of deliberation over one scene, even if it means I may never finish even one of my books as a result. In a way, I don't care, because (re)living my fondest ideas is not only pleasant but completely natural, if the abundance of chick flicks in the world is any indication. I do once in a while feel guilty about something, but that's how my mind works, I suppose--everyone else may have forgotten some incident, but I can't out of guilt over it =/
It helps me avoid making the mistake again, though. I guess.
...and I seem to have forgotten again to start laundry as soon as I got back Xb So.
