work, Eliza Dushku, conventions, and hindbrain

WTF for the day: Cornell University fails bigtime. (Warning: may be triggery, is rage-inducing, and seriously terrifying if anyone on the Review Board knew about it.)

My weekend has gone!

S: can haz wikend?
Boss: no can haz. wok. wok now. wok alla da wikend.
S: *sadface*

Therefore, no Supanova convention at Homebush. Maybe Sunday, after hockey, if I finish my work? Or I might go in to the city and see the quilt show. (Honestly, I think I'd rather go see the quilt show... I mean, Eliza Dushku vs. quilting. Tough choice!)

I'm supposed to be going out with my hockey club this evening for drinks. It's also a night on which I have a Sydney Theatre Company show: Oresteia by Aeschylus at 8pm, running 2hrs 40mins. But the drinks are supposed to go all night (they're going hard) so...we'll see. I haven't joined a drinking party at midnight for, oh, over a dozen years. And I dunno - I'm not sure that I'll be welcome because a) they drunk, I sober, b) I have this subpsyche belief that my team-mates don't actually like me.

note: this is not based on any hard fact, other than an innate and unfailing belief in my hindbrain that I am somehow unloveable and nearly everyone I know is just pretending to be my friend until such a time as they can dump me. Forebrain knows this is not the case, but the hindbrain lurks and whispers in my ear: sic gloria transit mundi. Or possibly just you do know you're kidding yourself, right?

The new Office 2007 Word processor has a built in wordcount! I'm trying to work out if this is a good thing or a bad.

Evening was good. Am now home, but my car is still back at the club. Will have to ask one of the twins to drive me over tomorrow to pick it up.

I will want fried eggs and bacon for brekky tomorrow. Possibly fried toast, too. Fried mushrooms in butter. Hash browns. Hollandaise sauce. The whole hog plus trimmin's.

Or a kebab.

Yep, I'm tipsy all right.
