Pity Meeeeee
Little things. None of them really noticeable or alarming in their own right, but when they stack up all of a sudden, they seem enormous. Here are some subtle-yet-deafening hints that I need a break:- I keep writing the phrase "output device" in the documentation I'm writing as "putput device"
- I didn't realize until about 3 p.m. that I had an enormous noodle stuck to the lower front of my shirt all day
- I brought a CD to work and played it quietly on my computer. Someone comes in, hears my CD playing, cocks their head quizzically like a dog that's just heard the can opener, and asks me, "Is the copier broken? Is that what I hear?"
- I forget to eat both breakfast and lunch (dunno where that noodle came from)
- Even though it's 20 degrees outside, I forgot to wear socks with my clogs
- I actually sat through ten minutes of Cops: The Ten Greatest Moments before realizing, "Hey, I hate this."
- I went the store and nearly buy a complete set of bright yellow-and-purple striped plates, even though I completely hate yellow and have no need for any more plates
- I came home and realized an hour later that I still had my coat on. And it's not cold inside.
So, on those lines, I'm going to Denver. I won't be back until Monday. See you then.
