magicbeans. nothing if not awkward.

everything's back up and running. but my work's not over yet. it was a little depressing that when email started rolling in, there was only one personal message (other than people asking what happened), and that was sent yesterday after things had come back up. i s'pose that mail sent sunday or monday could've bounced. and probably did. but it's more fun to think that no one loves me.

that's a bit tongue in cheek, in case my smile was lost in this text-only medium. really i'm feeling pretty good despite all the work i've been doing this week. keeping busy with challenging work is actually kinda fun. that's why i like fixing lots of little problems instead of doing long, drawn-out contract work; each project is new and different and exciting. even if the pay isn't as good.

of course my personal life (i know, what personal life?) has been on hold for the last week. i've only watched maybe an hour of tv, done no reading, and lost track of current events. it's not bad. it just makes me wish that i had someone to come home to at night (the nights i actually made it home this week), or people to spend the weekend with, just completely separate from work.

so, if yr reading this, and yr a friend who i haven't seen in a while, and i'm within driving distance from where you are, invite me over (i'll hardly ever be able to make the plans myself), even if it's just to sit around and do nothing. i need the company.
