Brief notes from the weekend.
Nov. 28th, 2005 12:31 pmMy ofdoom account is currently down, so I have to comb through LJ to find out if people responded to my posts.
Work moves forward then slips to stop. Forward, stop. Forward, stop. It's good to see that I'm capable of goading myself into forward motion. It's also nice that when everything slows to a crawl, my mind floats back to pleasant memories and I'm back against reliving them, and inventing new memories. It's easy to tag the new ones from the old. I'm glad that my downtime is filled with good memories, and not dwelling on anything unpleasant.
There is still a lot of food in our fridge from thanksgiving. My appetite was pretty low during the weekend. I'll try to get people's dishes back to them (cleaned, mind you) as soon as possible. Drop me a reminder if you're missing anything.
Saturday was given over to loafing and resting, but I did make it out to Forest and Tegin's for pulpy action goodness. I was first one in the door, and the last to leave. I didn't think I'd make it all the way through to the Mummy, but I did. How's that for fortitude?
Sunday: A tasty brunch, a melding of old and new faces, and the social scene becomes that much more intertwined. There was time out for a quick visit, then back home for a viewing of Human Traffic with water_childe. It's great to share that film with someone who's never seen it, and generally great to go back and relive the movie all over again. It can be especially appropriate at times. After HT there was pie, then more Firefly with theamazingjb, then a little desperate housewives and Grey's anatomy. This marks the first time I've watched any cable on my television since we started paying for it.
Now it's Monday. The routine begins again. In a few days, I'll be firmly in it's grip. Smooth rails that lead you to your destination, functioning on auto pilot yet again. It's somewhat comforting, but not quite appealing. I want bigger things to be afoot. Unfortunately, winter is not the time from growth. We appear to have a conundrum.
PS- FINALLY! Some serious forward momentum on Questionable Content. This is going to be good. Faye is braver than I it seems.
