These past 2 weeks have been so hard. So so so hard. Late nights at work every day of the week. Worked two weekends in row. When one project was done, there was no time to take any pride in it because there were 5 new ones slamming me for attention. The stress levels have been astronomical.

I haven't been able to talk to my girlfriend as much as I'd like. Some days, I didn't get to talk to her at all.

It's been bad.

Thankfully, I took tomorrow off, and I'm going to Dark Odyssey. And I am not teaching anything, I have one official commitment, and a play partner for the weekend who appears to be dedicated to make sure I get what I want.

I miss people. I miss being among friends. I've had two social encounters in 2 weeks... the rest of the time I was surrounded only by coworkers and my fish. I've been very lonely.

Thank you President's Day. Thank you Dark Odyssey. Thank you for giving me a break exactly when I needed it.

And thank you YouTube for the following Scrubs clip, of which I've now watched probably a hundred time.

If you will be at Dark Odyssey, say hello. I'd appreciate it.
