So, I've been dreaming about enormous demon mice that hide in the walls of my house & come out at night to chew off the dogs legs and things like that... I wake up in the dreaming & stumble over a severed dog leg & my dog limps about and whines and I can hear this demon mouse scuttling about in the walls. It is really rather terrifying.
Then there's the latest crush. He's like... well, he's like a parody of the stuffy rich guy. A parody because--he talks like that and yet, he wears these uber geeky glasses and a baseball cap and he's funny in this super dry way that cracks me up. Also, it's crazy but I saw him outside the other day & he was on his cell & gesturing while he talked and he was smoking and for some reason this changed my perception of him. So. There he is, on his cell and waving his hands about and smoking and I'm suddenly all hot for him. It's crazy stupid and yet there it is... A whole lotta nothing, like most of my inner gear turning kinds of things... but a smallish bit of fun all the same.
It's been a long week and the rest of this year is stretching out before me and I can't wait for it to be over. I have 2 classes coming up that I'm trying not to think will be unbearable to get through. I am reading for my current class (which is mental health) and it's ALL so triggery. Here, read about anxiety and depression and bipolar and so far it's ALL stuff I already know because I've been there/done that (or at least wondered if that's what I was being there/doing and so I read about it) and so... I wake up after reading about anxiety and I am suddenly compulsively worrying about stuff. I read about Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Rational Emotive Therapy and I think--"duh, woman. Mental Stop Sign--you are not thinking rationally."
And I can't wait for this fucking class to be over. It's like an awful slog through some of my worst fucking memories of my life. 'k, thanks.
We dropped our landline. Switched over to 'net via cell. I am loving it so far. Getting used to mobile internet was kind of weird and some sites just won't work at all (think, myspace--busy much? you know?) but most of my regular haunts have a mobile version (although google's mobile reader could use some work)... & so I've gone days & days without even firing up my computer. It's kind of nice.
This is my phone (well, not *my* actual phone, but a picture of my model):
It's really cool. It has a slide out keyboard & a touchscreen. I am completely in love with this phone. :)
I am learning more about it every day and still feel a little lost because it's like a mini laptop and yet I don't know how to do stuff with it like I would a computer... I'm still learning about programs I need to download so I can clean up & better organize this thing and/or tweak performance as well as how to go about cleaning up the crap that the man left on there while it was his... (he had it for a couple months but really wanted a blackberry curve & our provider finally offered that so I got his htc & he got the blackberry. Internet is way faster on my phone vs. his. :p)
Anyway... it's a lot of fun, figuring this out as is being able to access the internet anywhere I am...
So, now that I'm obsessed with mobile stuff... I am working on creating a mobile version of our website at work... although to make it fully functional, our catalog needs to be mobile as well and that requires getting the whole group on board which will likely call for a survey of some sort regarding how many people would actually use a mobile version... which right now, is probably not a whole lot. *sigh* But *I* would. :)
