You Don't Know There's Something Soon
Feb. 25th, 2002 08:01 amHey there, all...
My, what an interesting weekend that was!
We had quite a few folks from St. Louis and Kansas City come down to visit NARFA, which was cool. Silver Raccoon, Eddie Canis, Valorian, RedFox and Furpaws Wolf all came down to share with us what have become the trademark of this humble group of furs, our beloved Weekly Beating(tm).
From what I'm hearing, it went Nuclear (also tm) this past Saturday. Personally, I don't think it was quite *that* devastating, but man, it was a great party. :) There were a few snags here and there, but, well, you know how it goes when you live in a party house. You have to be a gracious host, even if you feel like sleeping in your own bed for a change. :P
I also had to work this weekend while company was down. A lot. This was bad. I worked about 16 - 20 hours since Friday night, and now I have the 'regular' work week to deal with, starting at 3 p.m. today. Work hasn't been this cluster-fucked in years, and it *was* about this time last year that I actually quit EZ Mart and unsuccessfully tried to find new employment. I probably won't quit, though. Truth be told, I *like* my job right now and I'm pretty comfortable with the way things are. The true test won't come until August, which has always been a month of Tremendous Upheaval for me.
There are a few people I would like to hug.
Sylvan, who not only had to deal with really shitty roommates, but bad dreams and really insipid e-mail spam as well. Put on a steel-toed fag-stompin' boot and go to town on the *world*, son, no one deserves it more than you.
Danruk, who is celebrating the 'roo's birthday today. Congratulations... Wurragurr celebrated his sixth birthday a couple weeks ago, but I don't really make a big deal out of it. And thanks for putting me second on your "People To Hump" list! Appreciate it. ;)
Blackfeather, for being a sweetie even though we keep missing each other. Gads, schedules suck sometimes.
And finally, Wendell, who I see far too little of, and has always been there for me, no matter what. His patience and resilience is utterly remarkable, and is a testament to the immortality of the human spirit. Really, folks. He's like karmic Play Doh. a-MAZING.
I'm really super tired...but I guess I have insomnia. Maybe if I put the pillows over my head and deprive myself of *just* enough oxygen, I'll be able to get some sleep before work.
*grunt* But my *tax* return hasn't come yet. :(
Ah well...
