Oct. 25th, 2005 03:03 pmOh my God so hectic. So, so hectic. I'm on a break from work, drinking tea, attempting to destress because the contact lens optician is a little slower than he should be so by this time of day is running three appointments (or about an hour, hour and a quarter) behind. And the patients are getting steadily more irate.
Ah well. There's nothing I can do about it except apologise, and I have an extraordinary talent for being sycophantic. Just call me 'wormtongue' Nny. Actually, don't - I tend to look yellow when I wear all black.
I'm getting steadily more useful at work - I really know what I'm doing in some areas, and that's a fantastic feeling. I tend to feel slightly useless - can't sing, can't dance, can use a sword a little - and this is a boost for the old ego definitely. And the people I work with are really lovely, we all have a great time together and laugh like idiots, which is a refreshing change. Usually at work I'm either terribly shy, or just... very very different from my colleagues. I still am, really, but I find that I'm way more inclined to make an effort to still get to know them. It's a pretty cool feeling.
I'm sorry I've not been very fandommy of late. Just not been in a place to appreciated the wonders of Aziraphael and Crowley, I guess, or to come up with any new and random situations to put them in. But there's a project I'm still hoping to get off the ground soon, provided the other party hasn't lost patience (which I wouldn't hold against them) and there're various bits and bobs I'm gonna make time for. I'm in a better mood now; it's a distinct possibility.

And work stress sucks. But it's good that there are cool people there - I got lucky in that way, too. Makes a huge difference. Speaking of which, I think my lunch hour is up. Crap. :/
