Scared and Frightened

The internal intercom line on my phone just rang even though NO ONE ELSE IS HERE.

A New Post

Sorry for my brief hiatus, I have been running around, frolicking in the springtime, tripping over tree roots, spraining my hand, and generally being spastic.

Things I have been thinking lately:

1. The new Feist album is friggin' awesome.
2. I'm really glad that I only have 20 more days of being an admin assistant left.
3. I emphatically do NOT heart Boundless.org, despite my group membership on facebook.
4. Only one more hour until I'm allowed to go get Starbucks.
5. Thinking of your favorite books/movies/etc is really hard. What if I forget an important one and people discover how uncool I am and stop liking me?

You should probably wear earplugs if you plan to be in my general vicinity

I'm going to try to contain myself. I'm going to try to use only one (or maybe two) exclamation points at the end of each sentence. And no ones after the exclamation points. And no all caps. Or italics. Or repeating the key words of every single sentence. Or sentence fragment.

Oh to hell with it. IT'S SPRING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

The trees are green... GREEN! With leaves... LEAVES! And in the forest there are trilliums growing... TRILLIUMS! And the air smells like blossoms...BLOSSOMS! DID YOU HEAR ME? I SAID THE AIR SMELLS LIKE BLOSSOMS! Because there are BLOSSOMS on the trees! And LEAVES! And the leaves are GREEN!

I used to think that I had S.A.D. but now I think I must be bipolar and my manic/depressive cycle only happens once per year, with the depressive happening in the winter and the manic happening in spring. Because, seriously people, I am SPAZZING OUT. And the 313 people can testify to the fact that when I realize it is spring I SCREAM. But at least I don't pretend I'm a cat. Not that anyone I know does that.

Recipe for Insanity

You will need:
1 ceiling full of fluorescent lights (2 or 3 would be enough).
1 Computer, noisy.
1 Computer monitor.
1 window out of which you can see the gorgeous blue sky and sun.
1 office chair.

Place yourself in the chair directly in front of the computer monitor. Make sure you are close enough to the computer to hear the noise it emits. Look out the window periodically and yearn. The lights will do their thing on their own. Handle them as little as possible. Do not over bake.

Right now I need to go counteract this recipe with some chai and some Josh Radin.
