Happiness and Pissiness all in one.
Thank goodness lj is acting better. Well, somewhat better. I can actually view
alex51324 's journal without it freezing my computer now. I still can't get the italics to work properly when posting, but I guess I can't have everything.
I'm starting to worry about my sudden sleeping issues. For going on six years I haven't been able to sleep for shit. Now just starting this last week while I was sick I can't not sleep. I actually fell asleep at my computer desk Sunday. Put my forehead right into the keyboard. Ugh. Then last night I fell asleep and slept right through NCIS. Double ugh. I fell asleep while typing the next part of Binding Forces (which, oh, geez, needs rewriten) and while typing Tales Told.
I slept through my alarm. I didn't even know what my alarm sounded like because I never sleep that late. My dog woke me up by whining (which I can't stand). I was chatting with someone on IM and I couldn't keep my eyes open to read what they were writting. I finally just said I had to get off because I knew I wasn't making any sense anyway. As much as I'm happy I'm sleeping I'm pissed it's all the damn time.
And then there's this guy at work. Uh huh, don't start thinking it'll amount to anything. I smile at him, he smiles at me. That's about it. I wouldn't know how to flirt if I even wanted to try, so I just smile. My friend that works with me is leaning towards thinking he's gay because of some of his mannerisims. I don't know. I'm more inclinded to think he's been around the commited gay couple that works in the office enough to have picked up some of their mannerisims. I figure if we ever actually talk it'll be kinda fun because he's currently reading (rereading maybe) Ender's Game, which I like a lot. I also like Ender's Shadow. That's about it from the Ender 'verse that I'll reread.
And, oh, good grief, if I ever pick up some of the sayings people use in my office I'm going to kill myself. It's horrible. Horrible, I say. From the use of 'so' every other word to the use of someone's name at the begining and the end of the same sentence I'm going kooky. Of course, if I ever pick up this one someone please, please just kill me. Swiftly. It goes: so, then, all like that, there. Usually at the end of the sentence, but sometimes stuck in the middle. It's all I can do not to cringe when I hear it. Thank goodness my friend is out of her training and we've moved our lunch hour to a different one then the one who uses that prevalently. Oh, and the use of 'that' is awful too. *sigh*
Other than those things, I'm actually more happy than I've been since I dropped my Drill Sargent three times in a row during hand-to-hand combat training. :D It's an odd feeling, one I barely remember, but welcome with open arms. I've fic to write, so I'll quit chattering now. We'll see how far I get before I fall asleep.
