A Long Day
It's past midnight and I just finished some online shopping so my mind is tired and still so very full of numbers. So bear with me.
Lots of things happened today, a few of them worth writing about.
One, I decided to try my hand at selling goods and services online @ Second Life. I've got a great product idea for fans of Snowcrash. Right now my only concern is finding time to write the code for it. Though, I think I can ask AK to help design the look, which should cut down the design time. What's my idea, you ask? Well, I don't want to reveal too much right now, but it involves monkeys. I've said too much
Moving on. What else happened today? I borrowed A Wrinkle in Time from Shoops and after I'm done with it she'll be releasing it in the wild.
Three, it was a long day. I felt overwhelmed today, which doesn't happen too often. I'm pretty laid back at work, but today after lunch, things just... piled up. KB's candidate, a rush courier, BG's extension, DS' reports and data stuff, the newsletter that just won't get finished (sidenote: I finished it about an hour ago. "Finished" meaning I still have to work out a few formatting things with AK tomorrow... which means I've been working on the thing for 4 days now). I'm also getting frustrated with editing our online tips. AS and I have been meeting every other day and we've barely scratched the surface. At last estimate there are about 500-600 tips. We've got a lot of work ahead of us. And with three newsletters, polls, interviews, and all the other stuff I can't remember, it's all starting to look like a big Goliath that just won't go down.
On top of all that I have an appointment on Monday that has me worried.
Sigh.
I know, conciously, that I shouldn't think about it because it's totally counter-productive to do so. It's just hard not to. It's not like I can do anything about it anyway. So forward on!
I can't wait till the weekend but I don't feel like going to the party.
Hmm. How am I going to break it to Anni? Hmm.
