walkingshadow: nihilistic thumbs up!! (dlm: water cooler talk)
MAN i am bored. i'm at work, it's my second day of work, and i don't quite know enough about it all to just jump in and start hacking away; so i have to keep poking at people to give me things to do, and there doesn't seem to be anything i can do right now, since they don't want to show me how to do things i don't know how to do yet. alsdkfjlsf. bored! WHERE IS LIVEJOURNAL WHEN I NEED IT. if only i were bored and ALSO in a position to be surfing the interwebs. oh, baby. i do miss the interwebs. i mean, there's all that gorgeous high-speed at the house, but my computer can't access it yet, and i just do NOT want to start reading livejournal on one of the house computers (especially because i know my niece *has* a livejournal, though i have resolutely refrained from finding out her username, because—*brain explodes*) or at the office, as that could be . . . awkward. so i've been going without for the past week, even though i am, IRONICALLY, surrounded by computers. water, water, everywhere.

luckily, [livejournal.com profile] malelia_honu and i have discovered a scrabble game that transcends the space-time continuum.

i'm filling out time sheets again. new policy, just incorporated, i just came from the meeting where we hashed it all out. TIME SHEETS. god. on the plus side: at least there will be some kind of money some day. which is something.

i'm taking all this employment paperwork crap and going HOME. hopefully i can get to a step class at 7:30 at this gym i have a pass to. i don't know whether i'm going to join one (cons: money, travel time, travel arrangements, whether or not i feel like collapsing when i walk in the door after work every day) or just use the equipment in the house. either way, step today, french open maybe tomorrow (i have seen no matches yet! so sad!) and one day at a time in that vein for the next little while.

okay, i realize today was bad in part because i was tiiiiired—we had fun celebrating last night (the graduation was lovely and quirky and nostalgia-inducing and followed by chinese food and PIE), but i went to bed late and got up early, man. and then there was the part where 1) they wouldn't give me anything to do, but 2) i couldn't quite put my head down and take a nap instead. god. maybe tomorrow will be better, or next week. i did get out to the gym though, and it was FANTASTIC. the gym's maybe a twelve-minute drive away, and i'm still trying to determine whether it's 1) feasible and 2) worth it. there's another step class with the same guy on saturday, so if i'm around ([livejournal.com profile] silentfire and i are trying to get together this weekend—because we CAN) i'm totally going to that.

in way-more-important news, ROGER FEDERER IS THE AWESOMEST. (sad but true: since the incorporation of the word "awesome" into my vocabulary, i've lost 38% of the words i used to use. who needs them?!) at this point, however, i only know about it from HEARSAY. seriously, paris is six hours ahead of us and between the matches and the daily highlights they're airing coverage almost all day—except in the evening, when i am actually home and available to watch television. i should get some matches in this weekend if nothing else. if all goes as planned, it's all about federer-nadal in the final. it's gonna be a nail-biter.
