Hermit mode; cause unknown

Howdy. I realized sometime yesterday that I couldn't remember the last time I posted. More than a week ago, it seems. I'm here, I've just been feeling reclusive lately and have had ridiculously little to say about anything. In one of those not-quite-funks where I don't feel social or creative, which makes fannishness less compelling.

Cut for a rather lengthy and potentially boring update about my life and my weekend, including contemplation of a job possibility, my flirtation with a fanboy, what an annoying cube neighbor I must be, and me going 'meehhhh i haven't been writing' and 'mehhhh i dunno about LJ' )

i don't have a tag for dating, blah blitty blah, evilcorps, i think i have a crush

Ah babe. I get your work dilemma. I don't know what I would do in your shoes, but more money is good, right? And the possibility of being excited! And...you're working at work as it is anyway, so I mean, working in a new work is still work and... I don't make sense. I don't HAVE to make sense. Do I? Oh god making sense is haaaard ( ... )

Yeah, the work thing... if I'm going to stick it out with EvilCorps, I probably shouldn't pass up a chance for more money. Just... Ugh. We fear change.

I did run into an adorkable guy, and will call him tonight and see if I can set up a coffee date so as to talk with him while sober. :-)

BTW, when did you start fucking Polyanna? You know she's underage, right? ;-)

Thanks for the superhugs. I'm actually not critically depressed or anything. Just feeling like laying low (and apparently doing a pretty good job of it). And thanks for general shininess and nice-persondom.

*hugs*

We fear change We totally do. Except, maybe, you know. Maybe change fears us too. (I'm just trying to be witty not profound. I'm very shallow that way. :) )

AND YEEEEEEEI. COFFEE. COOOOOOFFEEE.

By the time I'm through with Polyanna, she'll be wearing silk stockings, smokey eyes and will talk of half empty glasses. *muhahaha evil laugh* She started first. *pout*

I'm actually not critically depressed or anything. You don't sound depressed. Just...tired. In "i need a break" kind of way. And general shininess and nice-persondom I've been receiving, so I'm recipro...recripra...recipr.. so I'm giving back. (goddamnverbs)

*hugs*

That is a tough work choice - but at least it looks like you have some time to think about it. Good luck! talk at me if you need (I know I make decisions by talking at people)

YAY FLIRTING! *wishes you to be having much fun*

Will definitely take you up on that talking-at offer. Need to talk with Sarah again when we're both sober. See how real this might be, and when it might become moreso.

Flirting was fun, even if I wasn't at my most refined.

Yeah, it would be nice if something good comes of it. Hopefully I didn't terrify him with my "You're single now? Let's go out." approach. Wow. I'm suddenly a lot more nervous than I was. Probably best not to think too much about it, then.

3. don't let the man quash your humming

If it were The Man, I'd hum louder (omg how did this start sounding so dirty?). But it's nice cube-dwelling troglodytes like me, so I'm trying to rein it in.

5. we has an ep to watch this thursday, no? but i miss dw soooo bad. (that's my excuse that i'm not writing. do you like it?)

I think it's not a new episode until 12/13, sadly. I miss ALL of my shows. WOE!!!

6. 618 is better than the 0 words i wrote. stick that in your sam and smooch it. what?

... I'm sorry. Did you say something? Other than "stick" "Sam" and "smooch"? Because that's all I heard.

7. i vaguely read/skimmed a thing about lj/russian something but i'm not paying ( ... )

I totally know what you mean, I am so on autopilot right now and don't feel like I have the energy for much LJing.

Glad that you had a good weekend, if busy. That job prospect sounds great! I mean, hard work, but if it's fulfilling then it's manageable.

Geeky fanboys are yum. There are not enough of them around here. There are not enough full stop, go get him girl! Or, you know, let him breathe a while and then go get him!

What's with the Russians? I am so behind the times.

Yeah, my energy is just really really low right now, all around.

lol, seriously WORD about geeky fanboys and their being in short supply. I'm like, "Okay, be smooth here," but on the other hand, I'm like, "Don't let him get away!"

Six Apart, who bought LJ a few years back, has sold it (or, um, licensed it? Or something) to a Russian company. So basically LJ is under the control of the Russians now, and many people (seems like more the Russians than the Americans) are worried that it will mean censorship and no free speech and general corruption. killabeez linked to an informative article about it this morning. Me, I'm gonna put my head down and ignore it all for now, as is my way :-)

luz jugz, jeanz and jammyz!!

You should drink more. :)

*gloms you*

You want some SALAD?

Reply

hiyacynth December 3 2007, 21:24:32 UTC
Wow, I'm pretty sure I disagree about the drinking. Possibly I should get out more, yes. But fewer vodka tonics would not be a bad thing.

You keep your salad and its nasty dressing to yourself, missy!

*glomps back*
