Long time no post
Dec. 9th, 2006 11:57 amSorry, when I get emails from people asking me if I'm still alive, it dawns on me that I used to chatter on here way too much.
Work has been busy, yet not. I can't find the time to post, but I read incessantly.
I've been working after work, on one thing or another. There's something I'm doing I'm not ready to be public about yet. Because frankly, I don't want the opinions of the peanut gallery. For now it's mine and when I'm ready to share I will. Believe me it's nothing earthshattering, but it's something I know everyone has an opinion on and a "here's how _I_ succeeded, it'll totally work for you and if you don't take my advice you suck." attitude and I'm not ready to just be politely dismissive.
Let's add to that - I'm finding everyone pretty - insufferable - these days. I'm continually shocked about how snotty and self centered people are, and that in of itself shocks the heck out of me. I guess I thought people in general were better than me, and lately I've realized they're so not.
And this actually doesn't mean anyone on my friends list. I just don't really want to - socialize - in any capacity - with some people. I have WAY BETTER things to do, and I'm busy enough. My precious free time doesn't need to be wasted with, well, wastes of space.
Weekends I've been pretty catatonic. Last Friday was my company Holiday party, and then I went to chat with a friend who needed me. But I paid for it the next day, with a mild hangover that had me prone on the couch all day long. Today's better. I feel up to doing stuff.
I need to get my labels for my Holiday Cards. They are completely inappropriate, and rude, much like myself *giggles* and once I saw them (once again, thank you Le Targay) I knew these were for me. It's a small running joke between myself and roomie M.
Everyone's getting a card this year, I'm afraid I'm broke enough to cheap out on a gift, except for one Secret Santa type thing, which I'm going to be making something for zir, along with selective purchases I can afford, and except if I see something for you. I don't expect anything from anyone, and ask if you haven't purchased anything, don't. If you still feel the need to spend, donations in my name are appreciated. I like Ponies, so anything like that would be great. Or buy yourself a membership to a museum, and take yourself (and me!) Anything handmade is always appreciated and welcome, as I will be doing the same. Everyone is past the point where we need worthless trinkets.
Heh - I'm saving some money by recycling old "normal" leftover cards for my clients. I have a bunch. Loser = me, but the savings will buy me the labels I want.
I have some stuff to do for people this weekend, including me. I need to work out my Tax Season schedule, and if you want an appointment of some kind, you need to think about when and let me know, I'll be looking at February. I have a very tight schedule planned, and the boss is talking about sending me to the DC client at least twice.
OK it's time to get crackin', I have some things to move around. I'll be about. Wheee!
