So anyhoo,

I was pretty busy that week between Christmas and New Year's. So busy in fact, that I didn't write nothing. Now I've got the time!
Holiday Week report (sorry, no pics here) )

I finally dragged my butt into the Austin office today. Literally 4 minutes after I sent out an office-wide email saying "I'm back and available," Boss #1 comes by and says, "Why don't you take a few days off? Things are real slow around here."
That was a shocker. Usually this guy is always: come in early, leave late, skip lunch, work weekends, holidays, etc. But hell, I didn't need to be told twice. I was outta there!
So I've got the rest of the week off! It's like Spring Break just fell into my lap. I bet y'all can guess what I'm going to do with all that free time. Yup.

But that only takes ten minutes. After that I'll work on cosplay. (Ha ha ha. That was a masturbation joke for those of you who missed it. Heh heh. I find myself so funny.)
So yeah, it's me and the cat here in the apartment. I'm trying to get work done, and she's "helping". Maybe I'll take her for a walk as a reward for being such a good helper.

cut for unimportant argument )

What I'd really wanted to post about was what came out of our last face-to-face discussion. Liz conceded that I have the need and right to privately confide in friends and seek their advice, as she does. Half of the offense of my sex post, she said, was that I "aired our dirty laundry in front of the whole world," with strangers rather than in a discreet manner with friends. The second half of the offense was that I'd only shared one part of my side of the story. She said that if I was going to confide in people, she would prefer that I share _everything_ rather than just one small snippet that portrays her in a bad light. I heard maturity and wisdom in those two statements, so I took them to heart.
If you can read this post, it means I trust and respect your opinion and discretion concerning the messy inner workings of my personal life. Still, I realize that some people would prefer not to know. If that's the case, please comment and I will remove you from this new filter.
I've been considering Liz's second point. I have plenty of relevant archived LJ posts that would explain how the two of us got to where we are today to anyone with patience enough to read them. Though part of me wants to take Liz at her word, I can't quite shake the nagging doubt that somehow, it might turn out to be a bad idea. As much as I'm desperate for any advice or information that might improve the situation, I'm more desperate to avoid worsening it.
I don't know.

I didn't have internet access yesterday, so it's not my fault for falling behind. So here's two entries. This task is harder than I thought.

Happy thing #3:
I'm happy that the move is going as well as it is. I've been taking a load of stuff to the apartment every evening. It's not much, but it's added up and my old apartment is roughly halfway emptied. Oh! One thing that definitely makes me happy is now I can say I have a "cosplay room". A room dedicated to cosplay. Where does this box go? "Oh, put it in the cosplay room." *GRIN*

Happy thing #4:
Scottish Fold cats. I may be willing to own a cat, if it were a Scottish Fold. Just don't tell anyone I said that; I'll deny it emphatically.

It's kinda OOC for me to post cat stuff, but this vid both scared and amused me.

Not for the faint of heart!

My last "political" post seemed to offend some cat lovers so I thought I'd set the record straight and express my true opinion about cats.
