I saw the sign...

"and it opened up my eyes I saw the sign, life is demanding without understanding..."

Oops. Ok, so no, not that sign. I feel like I spent all weekend trying to read signs, though. Especially on the way home from Scranton yesterday.

"Babe, did you see that sign? Perkins was at the last exit."

"No, it's ok, there's another one coming in 3 exits from now."

"Wait a minute, was that the sign for Hagerstown?"

"Yeah, but that's ok, there are another 8 billion signs for Hagerstown...but we hate them. We boycott Hagerstown."

"Why?"

"Because their signs say 'Roy Rogers at this exit' when what they really mean is 'Drive 20 miles away from the exit and you'll get to a sign that directs you to Roy Rogers.' Fuck You, Hagerstown!"

Anyway, it was an awesome weekend. I feel I have some very close, good friends and that makes me happy. I just hate that we're all so far apart.

meanwhile, I need to figure out when we can visit Texas again.

Back to work now, trying to not look too bored and find a new job. Most of my day is just me browsing the net while waiting for Mark to get in. Then we talk a bit, go get lunch, talk some more, look at the servers, see if there's stuff we can improve, then go home at the end of the day. Mark makes me not hate my job 100%. He's awesome. :)

I am now down to the wire, with only 9 days left until I can start writing my NaNo novel. Shit.

I have no story idea. The one I had went bye-bye long ago and left me with a miserable shell of a character. No story, no plot, no real characters. WTF? What am I supposed to do with this? I need inspiration.
