At a guess, I'd say that I just don't have anything to say. That's unusual for me.

I mean...I'm here. And I'm willing to waste a few work hours blogging. But I can't think of anything to talk about.

I'm being Frugal. I'm dieting. I promised myself I wouldn't drivel on endlessly about drawing any more. That just doesn't leave much.

Stairs so far today: 114. But at a walk, not a run. Borrring.

Last night I had salad for dinner. Double borrring.

I've fallen in love with a secondary character in one of my MYSA-AS books. Borrring for everyone but me.

I have nine assignments to complete for drawing class and I'm only going to get five of them done. The five, sadly, will not include the one assignment that the teacher said was important. Unless motivation comes over me in a rush at 5:45 this evening, when I get home from work, I'm going to find myself stammering and making excuses tomorrow evening.

(One short paragraph does not an 'endless drivel' make.)

I was going to do this "writing exercises" thing with a friend and I did make a start, but then I got tired of my topic before I got more than half of the required word-count, so I have to start over.

It's possible I could have composed some kind of decent blog entry, but Alvin's wandering around, waiting for Buehler to show up, and he keeps coming into my office and pretending to look out the window so he can see what I'm working on and it's annoying me.

There's a bit of turmoil around here, owing to Extension 17 having been given the news yesterday that he was being laid off. He was offered a very generous (in his income bracket) financial incentive to make the transition smooth but since he walked out in a huff thirty minutes after he was given the news, things are a bit disturbed today. PsychoBob has been called in to fill in the gap. He's quite competent, even brilliant in his way, but he's a guy who always seems right on the verge of going postal with a vial of exotic poison or one of those ugly knives with a lot of teeth.

I don't like the games that come with Windows. I like Spider solitaire, but I hate that if you give up and restart a game, it counts against you in the stats. I hate a program that says, "Ha! Ha! You're a big loser!"

I'm grouchy today.
