(no subject)

Back at work after a four day weekend. Most of which I spent alone on my couch watching videos. This is, as with most things, good and bad.

Obsessed over Benedict Cumberbatch in To the Ends of the Earth (or some such title ... 1812, on a ship from London to the Antipodes. Read lots of crappy reviews, but wowza its a great performance from BC, so happy me). Well, happy until the tapeworms. Don't ask. Really. UGH.

Bit blue Saturday but finished it with a terrific 10 pm showing of Captain America which I fully enjoyed. Managed to walk the line of spoofing itself but not losing the joy of it all ... the scenic design was terrific ... Tony Stark's daddy in waistcoats ... production numbers ... clocks with the little flippy numbers ...it all made me happy. Then ran some errands at Walmart at midnight, and came home to find the kitten had taken himself to bed. He's staked out a spot on top of a couple of suitcases on one of my dressers for his overnight sleeping. What. I don't know. That's how Jinxy rolls I guess. LOL

Lessee... Sunday was another day of doing nothing. Can't even really remember what at this point.

Then yesterday I mainlined a dozen or so episodes of Jewel in the Crown (which I keep writing down as Jewel in the Nile. LOL). Send to me by dremiel . What took me so long to get to these? Staggering performances. Plus pink cigarettes and boys in dresses! ;) Have a couple more episodes to go but had to give it up and go to sleep around 1 am last night.

So here I am back at work. I keep hearing that people are gathering up stuff for me to do. They keep asking me to make sure I'm not overwhelmed. Which is good, but dudes, right now I don't have ANYTHING and I'm bored ... so get ON WITH IT! :)

Oh, and the thing I started out wanting to say and got sidetracked with the above nonsense ... just submitted my timecard, and looking at my calendar I find that July contained 10 outings with friends, and 2 visits with family. Not bad. Goes a bit of a way to filling that gaping hole of loneliness I carry around in my middle parts anyway. Wish I knew how to fill that hole up, but until a solution presents itself...

Happy Tuesday! Break out the deviled ham, it's White Collar night ;)

Oh yeah, and....

Either last night or the night before last (I'm super sleepy at the moment and just don't remember) I was having one of my rare lovely dreams where I'm at a workplace, and there's a nice guy there, and there's a bit of flirting, and some mutual attraction, and more flirting, and then just about the point where we're declaring mutual like ... I wake up. I suppose because I don't know what that feels like, and my brain can't process those feelings, or something.

And then there is angst in my head for not being able to get/keep even a dream boyfriend. I vaguely recollect I got as far as the engagement ring once.

It's never the same fellow, but they're usually ordinary blokes who are kind and funny and  have dark wavy hair. And usually an obsession about something ... music, books, whatever...

Oh, the inside of my head is trecherous. LOLsigh

Note to self. Pack a slicker and gum boots before venturing into psyche. :)
