Monday mostly sucked.

I had a headache and couldn't sleep, and all kinds of other annoyances. And when I finally felt ok...well...nothing happened. lol. I wanted to hook up with Michael, but he was working; he said he'd get me an application though, and he later invited me to dinner, but I'd just eaten.

I spoke to my sister Janice and my nephew Jordan earlier, which was fun. I feel like I'm bonding more and more with him, which is really cool. I've always loved my sister and her kids, but lately Jordan and I seem to be connecting on a person to person level which isn't something I ever expected, but it's really nice.

Preston called and wanted me to go to Necto but I was watching "The Spiderwick Chronicles" with Mark, which was ok, but not great. Preston called again later, wanting me to come over to his house if I couldn't make it to Necto, but I just felt like staying in...and it felt good to do that. Sometimes when you stay in it feels like you're missing something else, even if you didn't want to go, but tonight I was satisfied to be right where I was.

I watched the new 90210, which didn't impress me. In fact, it kind of did the oposite. It's wasn't all the sex, and swearing and all that - it was just so glam that it was hard to take it seriously. I never loved the original, but I thought I'd give this one a chance...and I just don't think it's for me, despite the cute stars.

Then I watched the first episode of "True Blood", which I didn't expect to like, but I fell in love with it. It's so fucking funny! I'm pretty sure I've guessed a major plot twist, but maybe I'm wrong. I think Mollie might enjoy this one, which I felt compelled to call and tell her half way through the program. We had a nice chat.

20 days until Sarah Jane!

The 4th Titan book is good...but I'm not sure I'm enjoying as much as the last one. It's very kind of...smaller scale & it's oddly paced, but I'm trying to go with the flow, and I'm enjoying it...it's just very different than what what's come before. Once I'm through with this book I'll be all caught up on the Titan books. Then I've 1 Enterprise book to read, and 1 Next Generation book. If I had the time, I'd also read 3 I.K.S. Gorkon books, and a half dozen New Frontier books, but I'm hoping those are less important than the others, and that I can catch up with those later. Still, about 2 years ago, my Trek book shelf was packed with books I'd never read, but now I've read more than half of them, and I've added new books almost every month! So I'm accomplishing a long term goal. Go me!

So, I'm looking for work today, and somehow I'm covering a shift later. I wonder if it will be my last? I keep thinking about that and it's sad...but the magic is gone. Mark wants me to stick it out...but it feels like it's already over, you know? My job was cool because of the people that I worked with, and for the most part, that's all over now.
