raybearI really need to take lunch hours. As in, take an hour where I leave the office completely and don't eat food in my cubicle, even if I'm doing non-work on the computer or non-work conversations on the phone (although today I spent part of my lunch on the phone with Cocolola discussion work, just not day-job work, which I don't mind since Carmen Miranda is always more exciting then making archive labels).
It's three o'clock and I'm completely loopy. I've sent out dozens of e-mails and not even just to the same person. I've listened obsessively to some songs on my iPod. I've contemplated going back to Crow's Nest to buy several best-of albums on sale that I think I need but know I don't. I've stopped consuming coffee.
I've lost all perspective. Time seems to be bending backwards, not just that it's going slowly or quickly but that it stands still, then rushes, then slows, then jumps around. Like Quantum Leap with the string of time that he drops into his palm to show how the line touches each other in places. (Yeah, I'm a geek.)
Strangely enough, I'm looking forward to going to a laundromat tonight and watching my clothes spin around in huge metal entertainment boxes while I fight crotchety women for a cart. Or maybe I'm just looking forward to the results.
Have you ever accidentally sounded like you were lying? Like, someone asks you a question and you're partly distracted so your brain hesitates and your throat makes funny noises while you talk and you realize it sounds like a lame attempt to deceive the person you're talking to when in reality you're just not paying close attention? That's happened to me twice today.
