Well, I've got some good news on the weight loss front - 32 lbs. down so far! :)


I'm sitting at my desk, barefoot, with my feet propped up in the shelf area, feeling no desire whatsoever to work. I hate this feeling of apathy. I'd spent Monday through Thursday actually functioning, working, and getting stuff done. Today, I just feel lazier than hell, and I have no idea why. :-/

I don't know if it has to do with my moods trying to shapeshift into some ungodly form, or the fact that it's nearing summer, or that I'm getting hungry and I'm uncaffeinated until noon. Perhaps its any or all of the above. I'll see what happens after lunchtime and caffeine this afternoon. Perhaps this apathy will wane at least somewhat.

In the meantime, I'm here. I'm awake and I'm existing. And that's what matters.

Britney, Spare Me

Just one word to describe her apparent fiancé: gold-digger. (Okay, so it's probably 2 words...)

First, he left his pregnant girlfriend (and mother of his two-year old daughter) to run off with Slutney. That already rankles me.

Second, she's not the paragon of stability - how else can you describe that debacle that was her annulled "blink and you'll miss it" first marriage?

Third, she's got quite a bit of money. Boyfriend doesn't seem to have that much. From the goings-on reported in the fishwrap, it seems that Miss Brit is quite the Sugar Mama. What man would pass that up?


With that in mind, I just shake my head in disbelief at the news. Miss Thing needs to seriously get a grip on reality, and have someone wake her up to what she's getting into, before she gets highly fucked over by some good-in-bed jackass.

As long as she can marry impetuously like this - yet, my queer friends and acquaintances that have been with their partners for eons and would love to be able to get married ... can't - I will be snarky and cynical towards people like her, that take marriage so lightly and seem to have no regard for the committment, maturity, compromise and emotional involvement involved to make such a long-term relationship work.

For my occasional grumping about a client or the Arctic conditions in the office, I will say that every once in a while, it's nice to have a client give me a compliment out of the blue.

It happened to me the other day, and it happened again today. I'd taken a call from a client who was calling to report an auto claim. In the course of taking the information, this person found out that I was a relative newcomer to the city (which people would probably be bound to find out at some point in working with me), and asked me how I liked the city. At the end of the conversation, my client said that they were glad to have me here (in San Francisco).

When I called him back later, with a claim number and the adjuster's name (because I'm nice like that), he thanked me for my efficiency.


Today, I spoke with him again, and he told me once again that they were glad to have me here. That really made my day. :-D
