listening to: it’s interesting to hear how other people type. you can tell how intensely they’re working, sometimes. i know when i’m really concentrating on something, my typing is fast and furious. spencer, too. he really throws the keyboard a beating when he’s trying to work quickly. and then you can tell when someone’s just sitting there reading slashdot, because their typing just sort of peters off.

craving: it was cold this morning. i left my windows open all night and buried myself under my huge comfy blanket. i even changed the bedding to flannel sheets. so yummy. i always sleep better when it’s cold out. i sort of wish i’d had my coat, though - i left it at the office over the weekend. so i was shivering as i walked to the train station, but i infinitely prefer to shiver than to sweat. i stopped for hot chocolate and sipped it while i waited for the train. bliss.

last night: i successfully managed to navigate the entire day without getting fully dressed or leaving my house. go me. around three or four i took a long hot bath and was so relaxed that i started dozing off in the tub. i woke up when the water was getting chilly and took a quick shower to wash my hair, then got put on one of spencer’s supercomfy shirts that has somehow managed to find its way into my posession and read in cold blood for most of the rest of the day.

so far today: i would have loved to continue yesterday’s laziness, but it’s monday. dammit. monday is just so very depressing. there’s a new guy starting at work today - it’s making me recall my first day here, which was almost six months ago. heh. i remember running around that morning trying to find something to wear that was presentable enough, since i’d worn my only really decent outfit to the interview a few days earlier. i was terrified of my boss. i got to the office so early that i had to kill time in the diner around the corner, and i was still one of the first ones here. and i was so nervous that when spencer and i went out for lunch we’d come back late and get yelled at. heehee.

current plans for later today: i have this really depressing pile of mundane stuff waiting for me to finish - i keep putting it off because it’s so dull. i mean, some of it doens’t even really require a human to do it - a perl script could probably do it faster, but my perl isn’t quite firm enough that i’m ready to test it on a slew of live pages that would be difficult to fix if i fucked up. so it’s just going to take hours of me sitting here, tweaking code. bleh.

what else: i have to say, i’m really impressed with the way the caffeine fund is going. once i get a bit more, i’ll order something from thinkgeek and send pictures to everyone who donated, or something like that.
