10/22/2004 Archived Entry: "The Weekend"

I'm looking forward to this weekend, I thought it would never get here. It's been a wholly frustrating week. At least I get paid today, that's always welcome. It's been obscenely dull this week, but somehow I managed to get a few things done around the house. Maybe this weekend I can get some laundry done.

John, Kevin, and I have taken to duking it out with each other playing "Wheel of Time". I'd never played it before until two days ago. It's pretty cool, though I've never read any of the books to fully understand the characters and moves. I read so slowly, I'll have to read the books one of these centuries as I'm not even done reading my new Terry Pratchett book.

In Other News...
I've been dreaming out odd, surreal things this week. Maybe it's hormones, but more often than not they are growing more "human" related and less concept related. As in, they now involve me interacting with people now more than how it used to be where I'd interact with a landscape or a scene being played out. I wonder if that means anything. Perhaps I'm getting less anti-social because of my job? It's daft to be anti-social in an office full of people you eventually have to talk to. What's weird is there are still some things I shy away from and yet I can manage to improve my social skills. Maybe it's because of the mask of online communication.

And some of my dreams are technology related, where there's a strange parallel between known society and an outside organisation. As in, technology seems stunted in "real" life when alongside runs a group who's already lightyears ahead and just picking the opportune time to say "Look, we've sort of got this thing going, but we didn't think you were ready for it until now." Then again, that's kind of always been the secret hope of a lot of people who are anxious for humans to start leaving the planet and looking ahead.
