Insufficient sleep, insufficient words, very very very good weekend that felt like it was about twice as long as it was. (Possibly because of not sleeping enough, as well as _crazy_ amounts of stuff to do. ;)

Having things in my head to force me to tell people things they need to know as soon as I know them does not combine very well with the fact that my reaction to feeling overwhelmed is to want to hide. It does, however, prevent me from hiding things from myself, which is good. Words shared are, at least in my head, immediately more real.

I think I need to go for a walk somewhere, alone. My brain is rather full today. Processing time needed badly.

australian_joe has been here for almost a week (a week this afternoon). And, apparently, even though _I_ don't think I tend to be particularly schmoopy or NRE-y, that does not mean it's necessarily _true_. Then again, I seem to recall having been accused of excessive sweetness output with ladytabitha often enough, as well. I may just be good at excessively high levels of cute w/people. ;)

This is a short work week for me. It's also my last week of being insanely busy at work, at least in terms of the reason I've been busy at work all month.

Distance bad. But, I will cope, 'cause I always do.

Yes, indeed, existance of strong connection regardless of reasons on both sides for why not tends to imply _very_ good reason for said connection. I begin to think that the universe just _likes_ beating me upside the head with things! (hey, maybe because I actually notice and try to work with it? Much more delightful an experience teaching things to someone who wants to learn...)

Oh! Also! I don't see nearly enough of starandrea. Seriously. And apparently I have fairy hair. ;) And there are foreign imported shepherding penguins in New Zealand. At least according to starandrea. ;) I should really visit her more often. Even if she is randomly not around to be visted!

Back scratching good. Startling to actually have to ask for scratching to be _lighter_, though! Possibly partly due to humid and sweaty. And I am _still_ amused by the number of people who commented on the results of the scratching (which I could not see), and who either said it looked like it was fun (it was!), or guessed that australian_joe caused them (he didn't!). regyt, w/impressive nails did, and I did _not_ get enough time w/her. Ah, well. There is time later. There is always time later (well, at least until there isn't).


Some quotes from my calendar, then I go back to working on stuff. And perhaps take a walk if there is time (and if not, I do so after work!).

"True love penetrates the secrets and the solitude of the beloved by allowing him to keep his secrets to himself and to remain in his own solitude." -Thomas Merton

"The great truth is that man is a spiritual being, who brings with him a life to unfold, a power to release, a love to express, and a veritable kingdom of heaven to outpicture. He doesn't begin life empty, but as a dymanic spiritual personality." -Eric Butterworth

Quoty bits from carocrow:

Remember,
people will judge you by your actions,
not your intentions.
You may have a heart of gold --
but so does a hard-boiled egg.
-Anon

To change and to change for the better
are two different things.
-German proverb

Any change, even a change for the better,
is always accompanied
by drawbacks and discomforts.
-Arnold Bennett
