Distractions are nice to have in a time like this. My favorite distraction is World of Warcraft. I've been playing for about a year, am in a guild (which essentially is a group of strangers from all over the place who enjoy each other's company enough to want to play the game with them), and we run around a digital world with our digital selves, fighting bad guys, monsters, whathaveyou.
A slightly less enjoyable distraction is the job. For example, I really didn't want to go to work today. Just not in the mood for it. But here I am, attempting to "leave the personal stuff at home" as my immediate supervisor likes to say. Along with "do we need to make a change?" It would be interesting to hear what she would say if she had to walk a half a mile in my shoes. "Leave the personal stuff at home?" Really? Seriously?
Hmm...let's see...losing the person you've shared everything with for the last 9 years (the total time we were together)...check...going through bankruptcy, knowing that you have to move out of the home you've known for the last 6 years...check. One of those events alone is difficult enough to deal with. Try both at the same time. Fun, I tell you. Lots of fun.
"Leave the personal stuff at home." Bite me.
On the plus side for today, it is payday. So I get to buy groceries. Eating is good. Personal hygiene is good. So groceries are good.
Bah, I'm to the point of rambling; then again, isn't that the point of all this? Ah, well...back to work so I can go home and be distracted.
Have a nice day :)
