slow day again today. rob stayed over, and i got to cook breakfast for the three of us. i dunno why i'm nominated for these things, but lemme tell you, i'm not the best person to get to make pancakes for you. of course i gave ample warning, and they weren't that terrible, but i just don't feel it's wise to ask me. "light and crispy" the box claimed. hum. mine were suspiciously heavy, actually. how do you screw up pancakes from a box? *shrug*
well, in any case, i haven't gotten terribly much done today, as usual. that's ok, though, because really what do i care? what have i to do, anyhow? i decided about an hour ago that i would embark on a new and completely pointless task...
i've been spending way too much time on the brunching board as usual, and today a thread was bumped again... my grouper on the board, trench, made a map of where brunchers live, and people have requested to be added for months now. of course trench hasn't been around for over a month, so this won't get too far. i really want to see an updated map, but that's obviously going to have to wait. well, in any case, what i decided is that maybe i can put together a little project that'll make it a bit easier to update the map.
i'm going to put together a brunching directory, basically same idea as the map but nonvisual and more updated. i figure this way it'll obviously not be a replacement, but it'll still do something. well, that's the theory.
i've already put down about one hundred sixty people. seems like it isn't a lot for a board in excess of one thousand people, but heavens knows that a bunch of those are people who never really got involved, and i'm not tracking down every scrappy. also a bunch of people don't disclose location, and i'm sure not going to dig around and try and get it. because that would make me a freak. ok, a bigger freak, i mean. well, in any case, i'm going to just say that anyone who wants to be added or subtracted should tell me, and hope that'll appease anyone who'd like to be pissed off.
well, in any case, i have work again tomorrow, and life is just supernormally exciting, i'm sure. i just want time to push on faster. i feel really guilty for feeling that way. firstly, it's a waste of life, and life should be precious. secondly, i never see my sister, and i should be valuing this time more highly. thirdly, i'm really happy right now, so why am i pushing to go forward? i don't understand, really.
well at least i can explain the second point. i still don't see debi all that much. we don't precisely have oodles of quality time together since she works days, i work nights, and she leaves on weekends. sort of messy, really. i'm still seeing enough of her, i think, but it really just doesn't seem to add up to much. *shrug*
it's such a sauna in here today. debi and i could not figure out why. it's been hotter in previous weeks, but the house has stayed cool. all of a sudden it's just awful and there seems to be no reason behind it. if this keeps up i'm going to end up buying a fan as soon as i get my first paycheck. we only have one, and debs is guarding it somewhat jealously of late. i don't blame her--she's uncomfortable enough as it is with gaping holes in her mouth and whatnot, but that doesn't mean i really appreciate sweating to death.
well, now i know why i have my two pairs of shorts. can't wear them outside much, but they work well indoors on days like this. i can sit here absolutely motionless, and i'm still sweating bullets. bloody utah.
hmm, i have nothing to say, really, and i'm tired and overly warm. i hope i can fall asleep in this awfulness. *sigh* g'night.
