I'm writing a lot more here than normal. Maybe it's not a normal time.

nn

Today was stressful, i brought my car in for repairs, and I always get antsy when things are up in the air. At the 11th hour things all finally worked out, and I got it back, running well, with doors that even close properly!

nn

Work was busy, and somehow I didn't get as much done as I'd wanted. Maybe it was the constant flow of people who needed help? It's not a big deal though, the work I did on the weekend has kept me ahead of the curve, and I've every intention of staying there!

nn

I haven't heard from A tonight, and I'm still concerned, but it doesn't help for me to be pushing all the time, that won't fix anything, and could just make things worse.

nn

I'm keeping an ear peeled (figuratively, yuk!) for the phone, in case I'm needed, otherwise my night is my own. I finally finished the book I started Sunday, “Flash” by L.E. Modesitt. It was a solid read, though I think it lacked a certain something I'm unable to quantify. I'm still reading Legacy of Heorot, 2 other Modesitt books, and a couple of A.D. Foster books, but life has been busy enough that I'm not averaging better than a book every 2 days.

nn

I'm still running on a low food, high stress diet, and I've somehow managed to avoid injuring anyone yet. I should really just work out a plan and stick to it, but I'm lackadaisical at the thought of building plans, I'd rather do than plan at this point in my life.

nn

I've been reading a lot of other people's journals, and it's so nice. Some are a source of endless amusement, others prompt me to think a bit more. Everywhere I go I leave a trail of comments behind me.

nn

I think I'm going to try writing a little more this weekend, it would be great to get at least one more chapter on paper. It's been such a long time since I've picked up the story, but it's still echoing in my mind at the strangest times.

nn

I'm going to stop now. Somewhere, there's a cup of tea with my name on it. I'm going to go find it now.

I should know better than to drink that much before setting my alarm clock.

nn

I managed to not only not set my wakeup time, but also to turn the alarm from radio to buzzer (which would have resulted in destruction of the unit if it HAD gone off).

nn

Needless to say, I woke up at 9:25, and my reaction was not something printable. I managed to get to work by about 10:15, and didn't bother with coffee all day. It's amazing how fast the day can go by without the morning caffeine jolt.

nn

C is asking for even more help from me, and very much in danger of bungling up her relationship even further. I've been trying to take a step back, so she can work this out without me, but she's not letting up.

nn

I need to be firmer, but I do worry about being cruel.

nn

Tomorrow I get my car fixed up, which will be a real treat. I think I've put enough money aside to pay for this, but I won't know for sure until the final bill comes down.

nn

I'm about done for now, unless something interesting happens in the next 2 hours.

nn

Cheers.
