i’m exhausted, and in a foul mood. my coworkers are getting on my nerves, and i need a good nights’ sleep so badly it’s not funny. i’m sick of this job, and my boss, and not having any free time. i always accept freelance projects even when i know it means i’m going to be overworking myself. the penny arcade relaunch went rather well; i’m still tweaking it a bit but the bulk of the work is done. anyway. i’ll write more later when i’m feeling less irritable.

i’ve been keeping mind-numbingly busy, which is maybe a good thing. most of last night was spent finishing up the move and re-launch of penny arcade, which is now hosted on monsterlabs. i’m deleriously sleepy, but i’ve still got another seven hours at the office before i can go home and crash.

i need some excedrin. this is either a caffeine headache or a sleep deprivation headache, but either way it needs to stop now.

thank you to everyone who mailed me yesterday - i appreciate it, i do. i’m doing okay, i guess. i could use some time off more than ever, though.

first, a bit of site stuff: the five hundred or so entries that were in the guestbook before the crash are gone. all the entries in the links section are gone. all the journal entries after january 8th are gone, as well as all the work i did to disintegrate.org in the past few months. the site at precarious.org is gone in its entirety; i’m seeing if i can locate a backup copy. the really fucked part about all this is that the backup system was getting revised just before the machine died to prevent exactly this sort of situation. :/

in other not-exactly-perky news, jim and i broke up. we’re still on good terms, and we’re aiming to keep it that way. the last thing i’m looking for is another bitter post-breakup drama, especially as i still care about him so much.

sigh.
