Head Automatica is fuckin' awesome! If you love Elvis Costello you'd find this band interesting, at the least. :)

The last two weeks passed by in a blur. I don't know what kept me sane or how I even got to stay focused. The universe knows it took sheer ( Read more... )

Last week was very taxing--physically, emotionally, and mentally. It took a lot of energy to keep it together, and I'm just glad it's over.

The hubby and I spent last weekend at a hotel in Ortigas. Not the most ideal location as I work in Ortigas and it felt like I was going to work. :p Nevertheless, it was a relaxing holiday. We checked in on ( Read more... )

The first time in a long time that I'm really looking forward to partying with friends and I get this stupid sore throat and cough. I've had them since a couple of days after Christmas, and they seem to be showing no signs of leaving soon.

Woe is me! I can just imagine my friends having a really good time--and I so want to be part of that fun! I ( Read more... )

It's not that I'm specist (is there such a word?), but the neighbor's newly acquired cock is driving me crazy. (Shit, that didn't sound quite decent. But take it in context and it's not adulterous. Context is always important.) See, I can't even write a decent entry because that stupid cock is auditorily and semantically getting in the way.

I didn't ( Read more... )

I feel so stupid and embarrassed for wishing that I had sore eyes so that I would have a valid reason to not go to work for a couple of days. I taunted the universe for such sickness to ail me, but my wishes were ignored. Instead, I was bestowed with a semi-monster headache that kept me in bed the whole day yesterday. (On hindsight, I've been ( Read more... )

Sometimes I catch myself having grammar lapses (other times I don't--might even be most of the time). But my previous entry title was blatantly screaming for my high school English teacher to slap my fingers with a stick that ignorance and inaction would be grave sins. Seems like my sense of the English grammar eloped with my inspiration. I couldn' ( Read more... )

Totally uninspired. Feels like my neurotransmitters are being blocked by a force far greater than lethargy.

I miss the weekend that was. Especially Saturday, when the hubby and I watched a movie, browsed the bookstores, bought a comic book, had dinner at a new restaurant, and enjoyed tea and coffe at CBTL with our favorite authors (who joined us in ( Read more... )

Could it be mental fatigue?

It's weird that for the past few days I've been in limbo again, doing things mechanically like an automaton at an assembly line. Thankfully, the usual work activities have been stored in my muscle memory so I still get the work done. But it feels odd like hell. Odder than a blue radioactive man. My fingers are typing ( Read more... )

Not that I'm stressed. I guess there are some remnants of the stress I had yesterday--of the sleep deprived kind though, not really work stress. Yesterday I had to put my Jedi mind control skill to the test as I painstakingly willed myself to process work stuff: I mechanically sifted through my email, took mental notes of things that needed ( Read more... )

Sometimes I have to remind myself to breathe. Other times I have to remind myself not to breathe--too fast, that is.

That's life for me. And it scares the bejesus out of me that even though I know what's going on, I still feel I have no control over it. That's really got to change if I want to be anywhere near sane. Dammit, somebody give me a good ( Read more... )
