<-- my life, by webgoddesscathy --> :: Friday, April 01, 2005 :: T minus 30 minutes to pick up. That's right, it's 6:15am and I've already completed my morning routine and am now sitting, sipping hot chocolate at my computer, waiting for my ride to the airport. It's awesome how I suck at sleeping. Well, at least I'm not in a panic. As if I would panic about travelling ~clears throat~ OK, now I'm seriously going away. Miss me! :: Cathy 3:18 AM [+] :: 0 comments :: Thursday, March 31, 2005 :: I am packing. Again. Do we all know how absolutely horrible I am at packing? Well, let me remind you: I suck at it. I am so very happy to be on vacation, only it doesn't feel like vacation. You know that the last day of work before you go away is always the worst? Well, this one did not disappoint. Everyone was bugging me to do something for them. And then someone would come along and say "hey, haven't you done THIS stupid thing that doesn't matter to anyone but me? NO?! OHMYGOSH, you totally need to do that before you leave today or I will think you're a complete failure!" So, I'd spend my precious time doing something stupid that could really wait until after I got back from vacation. And then I stayed late and didn't even get to some of the things that I really should have done before I left -- all because someone thought that their idea of a priority was more important. And I walked home all tense, trying to remind myself: you're on vacation now, relax! But to no avail. I knew I'd come home and have to do laundry and pack and tie up all those loose ends before going to bed early so that I can wake up in time for my 6:45am ride to the airport. Ugh. I suppose it could be worse. I could be moving at the same time. Ha, now what idiot would do that?? Oh ya, right, I would. Intead, I haven't even STARTED to organize my move, even though I move in about 2 weeks. Good for me. One step at a time. First step: enjoy vacation. Second step: enjoy life. I'll see you April 11th. :: Cathy 7:05 PM [+] :: 1 comments 1 more sleep until Calgary! :: Cathy 5:28 AM [+] :: 0 comments :: Wednesday, March 30, 2005 :: I think I've discovered what is plaguing me. ADT. "It's sort of like the normal version of attention deficit disorder. But it's a condition induced by modern life, in which you've become so busy attending to so many inputs and outputs that you become increasingly distracted, irritable, impulsive, restless and, over the long term, underachieving. In other words, it costs you efficiency because you're doing so much or trying to do so much, it's as if you're juggling one more ball than you possibly can." I've been wondering why I forget everything and seem so out of sorts and irritable lately. I certainly wasn't like this when I was travelling last year. And why? Because I didn't have to deal with "the constant and relentless chatter coming from our computers, phones and other high-tech devices". Are my mental powers being diluted by my modern workplace? :: Cathy 4:34 AM [+] :: 0 comments
