have a box of kleenex

so it's been a while. oh well, deal with it my five (wow, who are the three people i don't know!?!?!) avid followers!
not much is new.
i've been pretty bummed at work of late. 9 hour days in a cubicle with no one that i really enjoy having a conversation with. it's hard being left of the norm in an office full of predictable boring people. it's not that i don't like work, the rush of a new project or a deadline gets the blood pumping. but the monotone day to day stuff just to pay the bills gets a bit boring. and the people are just so hard to deal with...
thank god for bands like polar bear club, no trigger, strike anywhere, the lawrence arms and the like who have been getting me through the days. and a certain blog of course (not mine!) that keeps me entertained (it's about bad sandwiches) and enthralled. the forum that spawned from said blog keeps me chuckling too so that's a great bonus.
the GFC (not that aussie rules team, the "financial crisis") is getting me down a bit as well. watching people slowly leave the company because there's not enough work keeps my head thinking of so many scenarios that could unfold... i think i've made my self pretty useful and such shouldn't have that much to worry about but it's still there in the back of my head...

anyways back to actual work at work. love you guys.

p.s
i've been reading heaps lately. read tim winton if you haven't before. anything by tim winton. that guy is fricken awesome. seriously awesome. my recommendation is cloudstreet, but anything you can find really!
