Hawks loss today reminded me of why being a sports fan is such a terrible, terrible idea.
The highs are so very high, but the lows cast you into the Mariana Trench, and I've been going through the day so depressed. Glad I was in Children's today; at least the kids kind of cheered me up. Circ would have been, uh, TRYING, and Reference would've left too much free time in which to mope.
Jonathan Toews, BE BETTER PLEASE. And pass that on to all your buddies.
On the bright side: taking a full five days off of work next week, because I've accumulated quite a bit of comp time and I've been covering a lot of shifts lately and I could just really use the time off. Don't think I've taken such a long stretch off from work since I started here, aside from the five days I took for grandmother's funeral, which, 3 days spent on a plane/traveling to and from airports, 1 day spent on knees chanting and 1 day spent in the funeral parlor does not a vacation make. I theoretically took a week off after Chinese New Year's, but went in anyway just to clean some stuff up and get some thank you notes out. NEXT WEEK I AM NOT GOING TO WORK FOR ANYTHING. (I hope.)
So, so down. Ugh. Next game's on Monday; please suck less then?
(At least I have absolutely no desire to go looking through hockey sites/forums right now, which means more time spent on fic. Neck!porn is now at around 30k words, unsurprisingly little of which is devoted to porn. I just want to get it over with so I can work on a couple of more interesting ideas, but at the very least it'll be another length milestone once it's done; yay?)
(ALSO, it says something about how much gaming has corrupted me in that I had to bleep out 3 f-words in this post. I DID NOT ALWAYS HAVE A POTTY MOUTH I SWEAR.)
