Live Long and Trust No One, but The Force.

[Last meetings of the day are done] Boss: It has been a very long day, I'm going home, and if any of you want to leave early ... Me: [VANISHES LEAVING BEHIND A PUFF OF SMOKE, LIKE THE ROAD RUNNER] Boss: ... you can.

They finally finished that repair work in our building's restrooms, so no longer we have to walk to the next building, in 105F heat, or like I was calling it, "Go take a sh*t in Mordor".

As soon as I returned to the office, my body went back to "Too stressed, can't breathe, can't think" mode... good thing tomorrow have a day off and I'll be visiting my doctor, this might deserve discussion.

It has taken me over an hour at my desk just to be able to breathe normally again, without sweating. Good thing I keep an extra shirt around because the one I have is still soaked. Also, this will require half a can of AXE spray.

At the office. Meeting and conferences all day, like every year before classes begin. I can barely walk after limping from the car to my desk, so today is going to be extra painful. :(

Maybe, after spending a week without TV, having bad software issues at home, starting painful physical therapy, having an old friend pass (and another was close), just maybe I've earned to feel extra depressed?
