Status of the Quasi-Asian: Bulletpoint Edition
-No, I'm not dead.
-Today is the last day of work for a while.
-Tomorrow I go to Estrella in Arizona. I will be gone from the 12th to the 20th.
-Carolyn is borrowing the car, thus giving her mobility and saving me st00pid parking costs.
-I'm presently working 4 projects, all at the same time, and am desperately trying to park them or finish them today.
-If I don't respond to chat/Facebook/SMS messages, knocks on my office door, it's not that I don't love you. It's that I only have two hands and my eyes don't operate independently of one another. Yet.
-Life gets more normal every day.
-No, I'm not seeing anyone regularly. And though I've heard rumors abound to the otherwise, my life and my general status makes dating a particularly bad idea. Going out, however, isn't necessarily a bad idea and it keeps my extrovert nature content.
-Yes, I'm still interested in seeing people, despite the rather crowded existence. Please understand that if I don't manage it, it is not due to lack of desire, but rather due to some very lousy temporal planning skills. And the occasional migraine. Also a lack of a pause button. As I was telling a dear friend, There is presently no one in my life right now who is both available and important enough for me to change much. Many people, however, qualify strongly for one or the other. This isn't to say that you (both individual and as a group) aren't important enough for me to switch things up. It simply means that I am devoting more time to myself and my needs.
-At some point, I hope before my next birthday, I should have things settled down to the point that the above datapoint won't be as much of an issue.
-I'm planning to move at the beginning of April.
-I may be cashing in some favors to do so; just about any and every bit of help will be appreciated, drama factoring.
-I will be responding to some of the things I've been ignoring here on LJ. Plans are for the end of this month to get caught up. Wish me luck.
-I have considered and eventually rejected the idea of presently doing the "101 Things in 1001 days"; This may change, but if there has been anything the past year has taught me, it's that the best laid plans, even with the strongest of intentions, and the best of efforts, cannot save your most cherished desires. I do, however, recognize the value of setting goals and reaching for them. So I'll be pondering that as I (forgive the corporate-ese here) move forward with my life.
-I'm taking suggestions on the above datapoint.
-There are friends I miss terribly who have fallen to the wayside as I've been getting back on my feet. To these, and I'd hope you know who you are, I can only apologize and work towards reconciliation as I come back to myself. I hope you're still there when I do.
And that's the (no longer brief) status of the quasi-Asian.
