Pieces

The new deputy leader of the opposition has the same last name as me. It's only been a day and I'm sick of hearing my name on tv.

I discovered today that we have cameras in our department at work. One is about 3 metres in front of my desk, right over my head. VERY disconcerting. All the more reason to have my desk moved. I thought having my back to everyone was bad. Being watched all day is just weird. Talk about security!

Being healthy is so damn expensive. I think I might become a tree hugger and start growing my own stuff. But I've found out I like sweet potato. I used to hate it. Now I buy it and roast it of my own volition. It snowed here in late November, so it shouldn't be surprising. Looks like anything's possible these days.

I think I've found a hotel to stay in for my sister's wedding. She's going to check it out tomorrow and let me know if it's decent. The phone call to tell mum after I book should be interesting.

No, I still haven't written my promised rant. I'll just say this. If there was one thing I wanted most to sink in to T's head, it would be this... In the scheme of suckful things happening to people, missing one promised phone call to get shit-faced drunk with your mates might not seem like a big deal. But when a phone call is all you have, it's a huge deal. And if you can't be there to stick through the more difficult times, it kinda makes the easy times pointless, doesn't it? I'm not sure why I'm still struggling with things. In some ways I am. In some ways, I'm not at all. I'm stuck way more in limbo than I'd like to be and than I thought I'd be. It pisses me off.

Good thing I'm seeing the psych on Wednesday. I have a lot to talk about.

Stolen from Dr. Seuss:

...I'm afraid that some times
you'll play lonely games too.
Games you can't win
'cause you'll play against you.

All Alone!
Whether you like it or not.
Alone will be something
you'll be quite a lot.

And when you're alone, theres a very good chance
you'll meet things that scare you right out of your pants.
There are some, down the road between hither and yon,
that can scare you so much you won't want to go on.

But on you will go
though the whether be foul.
On you will go
though your enemies prowl.
On you will go
though the Hakken-Kraks howl.
Onward up many
a frightening creek,
though you arms may get sore
and your sneakers may leak.

On and on you will hike.
And I know you'll hike far
and face up to your problems
whatever they are...

Probably best. No one is worth it, Eve. Best to just hate everyone, it's simpler that way.
