Nothing really earth-shattering has happened in the past month or so but like old-fashioned satellites shot into space that emit a regular beep as proof that they exist but serve no other useful function.
Work still sucks... it finds creative new ways of sucking. The owners are virtuosos of the art of sucking. I have tomorrow off, however- and I'm sure there will be ample heaps of hell to await me the other three days to more than compensate for the bonus holiday. That's okay because I have the entire week of Thanksgiving off. Ha*fucking*ha!
Highlights for the past intervening time period- mostly the accomplishments of others: The Red Sox won the World Series; the Patriots have thus far run the table through nine games. I'm still solvent. Yay me. |

I need to take a heaping dose of my own medicine tomorrow...
Work has been hell lately; after two rounds of layoffs there are barely enough people to get the work done. It is almost physically impossible for me to successfully complete my responsibilities- I break my ass every night- often skipping breaks and it's becoming obvious to me that those who stand to gain most from my efforts couldn't care less that I have to work as hard as I do to meet their expectations.
It's clear I have to practice not allowing the stress affect my mood. Damn, but it's way easier to dispense that good advice than it is to take it. |

...NO NEWS!! Ha ha.
The respiratory virus I was enjoying as of my last entry is long gone. The outpouring of support and sympathy was really heartwarming... it gets me right.... (finds spot near middle of chest) ....there!
Actually it wasn't very much of a cold- 48 hours of head cold then an attempt to relocate to a vacancy in my bronchial tubes for a day- your typical sneeze and wheeze combo. I bounce back pretty quickly most times. I wonder if it's any coincidence that it hit me during a two-week break from lifting to let my shoulders and lower back rest? The world may never know.
It's Sunday night- usually a prelude to another work week but I have Monday off. this week... which is pretty sweet considering that my normal work week is only four days to begin with. So what exactly have I accomplished with all this extra time? Nothing. I only left the apartment once to get food and a few other off items... which is a bit odd since we had really summer like weather Friday and Saturday... even today was pretty warm. My energy hasn't been the greatest despite re-starting my lifting- probably because sleep is shit most nights.
Despite energy and sleep problems I find myself somewhat less prone to feeling depressed these days. Perhaps the relatively recent discipline of limiting the access I allow to my emotional switches has something to do with it... or I'm just another ticking time bomb waiting for the next opportunity to go off. I don't really think that's it though. I know very intimately what anger control issues are all about- and while I'm sure at times in my younger adult life I was fertile grounds for a diagnosis for depression and subsequent prescription for the latest wonder drug I've arrived at the conclusion that many out there who cower behind a comfy label of a disorder diagnosis by a medical field thirsty for profits could effect their own "cures" by practicing a time-tested practice of self discipline.
People are being bred to feel entitled to convenience... that any incidental intrusion of inconvenience is grounds for a lawsuit... or worse. The things that used to be looked at as areas one needed to work harder than most on are now diagnosed as disorders for which a pill can be prescribed. The concept that some people just have to try a little harder than most to achieve some things has gotten lost in the mix. It's no longer Junior's responsibility to sit still and pay attention, that task is now in the court of Mr. Ritalin. And Johnny no longer has to work at controlling his temper... he's now bipolar... and could I have that in writing, doctor? It might come in handy should he ever become inconvenienced by some troublesome "murder trial".
My recent head cold was very inconvenient for me... it caused great pain and suffering- not to mention mental anguish... and it made me sneeze. My red nose was very disfiguring. I think I can use that as an excuse to camp out on the roof of my work with a rifle -eh? The mental anguish just pushed me over the edge... oh wait, I've been over the virus for a week. Maybe some skillful lawyering and creative diagnosing could land me temporary insanity because of "Delay Onset Post Congestion Stress Disorder". Either that or find and sue the person who gave me the cold in the first place. |

| awww that sucks... stress is a bitch. haha, you KNOW i know that... anyways you know the deal- excercise, sleeping well, eating well, meditation.... also if things at work continue to be that bad, is there anyone you could talk to about it in a non-whiney way (not that i have to tell you how to bring things up/discuss things... you're good at that)? :) |

| Hey Stinkfoot...how the hell are ya? So what do you think of Dan Rather suing CBS? Rupert Murdoch will probably put a hit out on him. Anyway, I wonder how many average Americans realize that General Electric owns NBC and they make so much $$$$ off the war in Iraq (GE). What is going on? I feel like I woke up in some screwy alternate universe...where everyone is asleep or numb. PEACE |
