i tend to speak in riddles, and getting a straight answer out of me is indeed a notable moment. while i may act a little crazy, i am actually quite lucid and tend to be the voice of reason. my sanity is in a good balance with my insanity.

how mad are you?

Tired...

Training is being training again.

One of the 2 (fucking useless) "staff support specialists" ie: people who get paid far more than I do for the same job, who I usually end up doing their work for, was supposed to be checking the messages on the phone, if not both.

I logged in because I got back from lunch early and the message light was on.

20 messages, dating back to just after noon yesterday, when I did the exact same thing.

SHIT.

I'm less kicking myself for my faux pas last night, and more ready to start opening up both barrels on the 2 staff members who are, as far as I can tell, sitting in their offices and bidding on ebay shit while I'm doing/helping run training.

I almost cracked someone in the jaw today.

One of the people for the Orientation Committee (who didn't even arrive until today) showed up in the hallway to see who was here already. I'll admit, it was someone who I don't like terribly much.

But guess what the first words out of his mouth were?

"Here for computers, huh? Guess you didn't actually have to do anything."

I just turned around and went into the room, and shut the door.

So nice to see the people I work for show such appreication of what I do.

skarlette and I are gonna try to slow down. Things have been a touch too fast, and neither of us wants to hurt the other. We care very deeply about each other, and we're going at friends, and we'll see what grows from that.

Before someone even mentions a certain other female, it's not like that. Believe me, it's not like that. Our trust is mutual, our motives known.

I trust her as much as I trust ijikeru, or sk4p, or silentsteel, or ixx. As much as those who saw me through after the last time I half-tried to kill myself, several years ago.

Yeah, I'm actually mentioning that out loud. Wierd, huh? It's taken almost 3 years, but I'm actually discussing it and dealing with it rationally.

It's odd, but I think my life is on the course it's supposed to take. I'm happy, and I have friends that love me, and who I very much trust. I have a good job, I'm doing well with my education, and...while I don't know where I'm going exactly, at least I know I've got people who will be with me on the way.

Things you don't want to hear in a phone call when you call grandparents to see how they are.

1) "Oh, your mother's having knee surgery Friday. But she said she was gonna come up and see you this weekend with your dad."
-Gee, nice of them to tell me about any of this. I didn't even know they were planning to come up this weekend at all!

2) "Your sister's roommate introduced her to bunch of friends....but I'm afraid that one of the friends was the girl at South Carolina who fell off the balcony of her room and died. Your sister is okay, but she and her roommate heard a girl from the victim's hometown had died, so they went to see if she was okay, and the police had her room sealed up while they checked the inquest."

Holy. Fucking. Shit.
