Bleh

A day of demonstrating a card game has had the anticipated (and historical) effect on me.

I’m sick.-ER

I hydrated, I ate, I relaxed and let it flow.

But the old wacky came back to say “hi.” I don’t really miss this part. No, no I don’t. Unfortunately, it’s another in a list of many things I am good at that I don’t enjoy as much as I used to.

Go figure.

I’ve had numerous false starts at updating these pages in the last few days. But work is sucking my soul dry, and last week wasn’t anywhere approaching fun. For those who don’t know, two good friends of mine left the company this last week. I knew about both their departures in advance; in fact, I probably knew before 90% of the company for both of them. And to make it even more fun, they bracketed my desk on two of three sides, emptying out further my already sparse workspace. My former assistant will be moving into one of those spaces, and a contractor we have in for a while longer has claimed the other one. An intern began her term of durance vile on Friday.

But it’s really not the same. It is literally a completely different department to work in now, and I’m not all that sure how I feel about it.

Other than sick. Which seems to make most aspects of my life just that much more fun.

All for now.
