[socialness]
Jan. 4th, 2005 01:54 pmFor someone who is intermittently very, _very_ anti-social, I know an awful lot of people. (this comment brought to you by me attempting to figure out which local people I will have not seen in entirely too long because of my busy last and this month - or longer than that in some cases. In some cases, there are people I've seen basically nothing of since before last summer's time of work eating my brain!)
I have to wonder if some of this is simply that there's too damn many nifty people around me now, and it's much easier to feel at least vaguely part of their lives via LJ. And, perhaps, the fact that I haven't quite adjusted to the fact that, since I've been in the Boston area, there've been lots of people who are nifty and actually make sense to me. (vs previous to that, when they were few and far between)
*shakes head* Too. Many. People.
*hides*

aelisdeliria's (new) username!
(It's got many of the same letters in it, and my brain apparently doesn't want to parse it)
Help! I'm lost in her name!

Jan. 4th, 2005 04:35 pmEvery so often I am reminded of the fact that my being easily confused means I'm _really_ good at finding things which are unclear or misleading in user-facing stuff. (internal or external users - doesn't matter)
Kinda like the fact that I need to write down all multi-step instructions makes it easier for me to write test plans!

[travel] So many road-tripping people!
Jan. 4th, 2005 04:54 pmI fascinatedly watch the three sets of people on my friends list who are planning cross-country trips in order to move themselves to their respective opposite coasts.
I will be picking y'all's brains in ~3 years, probably.
Mmm. Brains....
(You know, I talk about brains so often, I really need a brains icon)

Jet lag appears to present itself - at least in me - as the simultaneous states of utter and complete exhaustion, and the inability to actually get to (and stay) asleep that I already have trouble with all too frequently. I just spent _way_ too much time during dinner with dancingwolfgrrl yawning incessantly and being all glazed over and too damn tired to read the menu. And yet now, I'm not tired enough to sleep. Shall try melatonin again tonight, but in an hour, since trying to go to bed at 9pm last night wasn't particularly useful an idea.
It also feels an awful lot like being sick, especially since insufficient sleep tends to cause me head and muscle aches.
On the plus side, I get to investigate the possibility of sleep apnea on Thursday morning, with an early morning doctor's appointment.
I can_not_ imagine being someone who travels for business and therefore deals with jet lag constantly. Athough I suppose it wouldn't be too bad east->west coast, since that part wasn't too difficult. Even if I had had to go to work while in SF, I'm not sure it would have been bad, since I'd have been awake during business hours either way.
Daaaaazed. And mostly incoherent.
La! Oh! I get to use my exhausted user pic. :) The thing about the last trip to California - this picture was taken on the way home - is that I never adjusted to the time zone, so no jet lag on this end.
I feel like my brain is full of lots of small buzzing insects. I'm not actually _thinking_, but it's not quiet, either.
