Embracing the mundane

By ~LS~ On March 10, 2010 · Add Comment · In The Quotidian (yadda yadda) and tagged Tagged With: Gratitudes, Threes

Someone pointed out to me that I should take time to observe and even appreciate the little things around me, like the changing seasons or paint peeling on the wall. My response? Seasons don’t change in BR and really? Paint peeling? Ok, ok. I get the point. I need to start using my gratitude website and promoting it.

So, not so much gratitude as things that I was present for today:

1. I’m amused that I’m hoarding ink jet cartridges, something I just now noticed.
2. I really do have a lot of colorful markers.
3. I’ve had three d10′s on my desk for years, left over from a torturous attempt at WoD. One is rather pretty with its blue and purple speckles and silver numbers. It reminds me of Easter candy.
4. I’m learning to live with fingerprints and smears on my Droid.
5. It’s [...]

I am behind on…

1. Grading. SO MUCH GRADING. And it’s not even the crunch time yet.

2. Cleaning. I never finished my 40 steps/40 days summer goal of cleaning my office. I have piles of crap all over the place and everything I dusted now has layers of dust again. Depressing.

3. Reading. My “to be read” pile is huge.

4. Health care. I need a dentist’s appointment and a dermatology appointment. I’ve needed a dentalappointment for months now.

5. lolcats. I’ve caught up on lolcats, goggies, lookalikes, and punditkitchen. I’m behind on Engrish and Failblog. Can’t catch up. At all. I’m trying, though, which shows my priorities are straight.

6. Dollhouse (thereby contributing to its cancellation).

Things coming up that scare me…

1. Final grades. (No brainer.)

2. Getting ready for Rome. So much to do!

3. The dentist. When I actually get there, I know she’s going [...]

Sup?

Some things:

1. I’ve been working on another website. I find when I do that, I tend to disapper because I’m so immersed. Incidentally, the website is mygratitudes.net. There’s nothing up yet but junk and filler, but I’m having fun working away on the site design. I’m enjoying learning more about CSS, WordPress, and HTML. If there were some local classes, I’d probably be interested in taking one. I’d like to learn more about design itself, not just website design. Stuff like layout, typography, and the like. I’ve tried reading up about that sort of thing online, but I don’t really -see- what people are talking about. I think I need someone to tell me and show me.

2. Today I was looking up examples of arguments for pro-choice and pro-life positions to bring to class. I googled “pro-choice+arguments” and got an astounding number of hits that were Christian, anti-choice [...]

My BRCC Meltdown?

By ~LS~ On September 16, 2009 · Add Comment · In I have to work? and tagged Tagged With: BRCC, Gratitudes, Threes, Work Sucks

I shared a meal and a conversation today with a colleague who shall remain nameless. I shared with this person some of my frustrations about BRCC and she pointed out that I am nearing the end of my third year. She stated that people typically have a “BRCC Meltdown” at their third year. Actually, there were some other qualifiying statements in the discussion, but they are not relevant. I asked if she had statistical data to support this, but it turns out the evidence was only anecdotal. Still, I fear she’s correct.

Up until now, I have spent my time at BRCC intentionally avoiding the sort of bitch sessions that occur at every workplace. I have studiously remained blissfully ignorant of how things work. I have skirted and skedaddled from negative conversations for three years, preferring to remain on a surface-level of everything. Uncharacteristic of me, I know. [...]
