Stand back and watch the sky fall.

I really shouldn't listen to Muse when I'm already feeling a little pissed off with the world. Really hate the courtesy car, annoyed with people in general, my boss in particular. For the record L, I was telling you what I'd done, not asking how to do it. (Long, boring story which won't interest anyone - not even me.) Oh and also? What I do on my tea break is my own business. Sitting at my desk with my laptop has nothing to do with anything that's going on the office, just because it meant I was there when your so-far-in-the-closet-it's-not-even-funny 'boyfriend' called doesn't give you the right to snipe at me.

So yeah, pissed off and a little swamped right now. Sheer laziness and annoyance is stopping me making plaques - took a break for a while there because nothing was working out, now? Still not working out.

Off to go find another depressing 'me against the world' album to listen to. Radiohead anyone?

ETA I sound like such a moaning cow right now. Sorry. I love running the sites, I love making graphics, I love writing, they make me happy. It's when other things get in the way that I get cranky. Right now my job really sucks and I'm finding it harder and harder to justify getting out of bed in the morning because of that. Family life... well let's just say my sister and I are in a cordial 'talk about the weather' state right now. And yeah, for those of you following the saga? I still don't have a carpet.

RL is being a bitch right now, which is spilling over into me acting like I resent my online stuff - so not the case at all.

One good thing came out of it - my little turn of phrase? Spawned an icon.

Although Faith looks particularly Cordelia like in it for some reason.

It's the frown. Very Cordelia like. Still very easily identifiably Faith though.

S'kinda indicitive of the problem I'm having with graphics right now. It's got this greenish/brown tint over it which works for this one, but everything I touch at the moment seems to end up with that kind of colouring.

I've now shut down Photoshop and am going to go something, anything, else...

Okay, go do something else, and by frown, I meant frown, not brown. Faith looks very much like she's frowning in that picture, which is what I think makes it look Cordeliaesque.

I know you meant frown.

Thanks - and so do I! I'm sure it's just a mid-summer slump, hayfever playing up, being stuck in work on the best days we're likely to have this year - it's not good.

I guess it could be worse in a way - at the moment all that's bugging me is work. My health's better at least.

Thanks!

I am glad to hear that you are least feeling better health-wise! But sorry about work...and your sister!

I can definitely relate with how you're feeling, it really stinks to get frustrated with the things you enjoy because you're so busy with the stuff that you don't. Here's hoping you find a few minutes to breathe now and again.
[identity profile] whiskyinmind.livejournal.com on June 29th, 2005 12:09 am (UTC)
Breathing? What's that again? *smiles* Feeling better this morning, a little more positive in a way.

Guess Sneaker Pimps are a better soundtrack than Muse...

{{hugs you}}

You gonna be around tomorrow (Wed.) evening (your time) to chat? Whew. One of these days I'm gonna figure out a way to ask you a question about being around to talk without needing to clarify myself...

{{hugs you again}}

{{hugs you back hard}}

I will indeed be around. I'm feeling a little better this morning - not so down on everything so I should (fingers crossed) be a bit more sociable this time!

(and that icon - you're just being a tease now aren't you?)
[identity profile] emeraldswan.livejournal.com on June 29th, 2005 09:04 am (UTC)
Now would I tease you?
