I am hating my job. Hate, hate, hate. It's seething unpleasantly under my skin, making it difficult for me to talk to any of my co-workers, or indeed anyone else. It's strange... when I was taking Trig I had no energy for school because I was so busy with my job. Now I've got ten times as much to do with work, and the only thing that keeps me sane is going to Pre-Calc and letting my brain be filled with math instead of stress.

Czr is officially not coming with us this weekend, having far too much to do in getting his house ready for Rachel & Fire's birthday party the following Saturday. It's weird to think of my brother having a birthday party, much less a big birthday party with the entire horde (plus huge numbers of non-Hordians known by Rachel) invited. I'm wondering if he'll even show up.

Liralen will be here this weekend, while I'm in LA and unable to see her. Al&Sheryl&Robin will also be down, but it looks as if sufficient numbers of people will be gone that the only Mage that occurs will be for Czr -- finishing up Slade's arete quest. Thus I am saved from horrific amounts of jealousy.

The weekend is formless and void before me. Hopefully I'll get enough sleep, and perhaps we'll see Contact, and, well, Earl. Seeing Earl is always good.

Time to stop writing and go work off some of my stress by stomping around fixing things for users.
