this week feels loooooooooooong. i'm so ready for the weekend. ugh.

been a good week for catchin' up w/ folks i haven't talked to in a long while. feels good. gotta get over the phone phobia...someday.

the guy i've had trouble w/ at work has finally labeled us as "not meshing well." it's true but it often feels wierd & uncomfortable when people confront issues. i mean, i'm glad to get shit out in the open, deal with it & go forward. often times i don't realize it's possible to change things. they just are what they are... turns out that's often times not the case. i'm interested to see what happens because of our "not meshing well." stay tuned.

have accomplished zero christmas shopping & that feels pretty good. i have to say, i wish it was easier to move towards celebrating the holidays sans purchasing gifts for people. not that i don't like giving gifts. i do. i guess, in my old age, i realize i'd rather spend quality time with people or do something nice for them & forget the purchasing of the stuff - although am a fan of useful stuff.

& so my brain is melting. i need to sleep.
