I'm feeling some serious work blahs lately. Very overwhelmed. Not feeling the love for the job as much these days.

Feeling some...well, something for the boy. The suggestion has been made that if he isn't going to quit sweet-talking me and start asking me out, I need to move on. I'm not closed to other opportunities, I pointed out in response; I just don't get a lot of opportunities. But I do agree that I should ever-so-gently let him know that if we're going somewhere, it needs to move beyond the computer. He makes my heart flutter & all, but still.

In other news...Happy Mardi Gras & Happy Chinese New Year! All the other Horses out there, it's our year, so it should be extra-lucky. Eat something sweet & wear red & put tangerines around your house. And drink. And I don't know what you should do to celebrate Lincoln's birthday; go read "When Lilacs Last in the Dooryard Bloomed" or something.

So guess who I just chatted with? Yup. Matt. He's apparently been in a crazy work-a-holic mode & was very apologetic about not having been in touch. Of course, I was like "it's cool", not letting him know what a spaz he made me into for a while. And you know what? I'm happy about talking to him and all, but I'm not turning cartwheels and assuming life will now be perfect. I'm not attaching my life's happiness to him. This is a Good Thing. I am a Strong Independant Woman. As Ally McBeal once said..."I don't *need* a man. I *want* one."

Busy busy weekend....ate lots, shopped lots, saw the family. It was good, but I'm pooped. And I need to go in early since I didn't make it to the office at any point this weekend. Still catching up from vacation.
I'm better now, thanks in part to Steph for getting me to go out last night instead of wallowing in self-pity. Also had a fun, full day today. Nice weather helps. Anyway, yeah, hooray for singlehood!
