liptonrm_backupAm very tired of the cold. It can be spring now, please.
Am also very tired of how cold it is in my office. This building doesn't seem to have any sort of good heating. My hands would like to be warm again sometime in the next decade, please.
Yesterday was ... interesting. Heard some news when I got into work in the morning that had me feeling contemplative and solemn for the rest of the day. I'm still not quite able to process what I was feeling into words, so all I'll say is that it's amazing how one life can touch the lives of so many other people and how valued that one life can be by both strangers and friends.
Then, at the end of the day I got some great news. I was able to go pick up my car from the body shop. It was fixed and new-seeming and shiny and it runs better now then it did before the accident. I'm ecstatic to be my own transportation again. I've had a lot of help in the past week from people who were more then willing to ferry me to and from work and for that I am extremely grateful.
I refuse to think about how grateful my credit card company and my local municipality are to me. They are both going to make quite a bit of money out of my momentary blindness.
I came home to find my shiny new copy of The X-Files season one by my door. It was on sale at Amazon.com for $35 and even though I shouldn't have even spent that much money I couldn't resist such an amazing deal. Am very much looking forward to popping that in the dvd player, once I finish watching the episodes of Farscape season one from that shiny new dvd that was purcahsed a few weeks ago.
brrr *shiver*
