Powerless
So the power goes out at noon today, and I figure it's a good time to go to lunch. By the time I return the power should have returned, and I can get on with my day. So I did, and it did, and all's well right? Sure...
I return to a near empty office.
It turns out that the power stayed off for almost the whole time I was gone, so my boss and the team called it a day and went home. Gee, thanks for the freakin' phone call, people!

You know your job sucks when every morning is an "Oh fuck" morning. That's when, at the moment you first open your eyes to rise to meet the day, the very first thing out of your mind and your mouth is, "Fuck"--as in, "Fuck, I have to do this all over again today." It's not a question. It's a statement. An acknowledgment of the fact that your life is not where you want it to be, and you can't see the way free of its demoralizing cycle. It's like Groundhog Day but without a happy ending.

Happy F***ing Valentine's Day. It's raining sideways here, everything is covered in icy slush, trees are falling on cars in the parking lot, and I'm the only idiot member of my team to show up to work today!
But worst of all is that I have friends out there who are alone on this romantic holiday day. I want nothing more than to be there for them, with them, near them; laughing, crying, drinking, eating, dancing, just being, hanging out, having fun.
Oh cruel fickle finger of fate! Why do you diddle me so? Man, I'm in a weird mood today. lol

Hellooo?

Ok, this blows. I'm cutting out and going home at lunchtime.

Wanting MMO Out of Life
CTRL+ALT+DEL... It's like digital Darwinism.
