just watched Private Parts.  finished this one.  it started out slow, and
it wasn't genious, but there were definitely some laugh-out-loud moments.  

had lunch with Hoagy, Bryan, and Sandy today.  that was really nice.  I
miss working with Hoagy a lot.  guess I won't have that chance anytime
soon, seeing as how he's pretty happy with doing books for Prima.  as he
put it, "it was so nice to just sit down for three weeks, have nobody
fucking with me, no meetings, no bullshit, just do my 800 screenshots, 96
pages, and have a finished product at the end."  well, I'm paraphrasing.  

speaking of work, something that has me fairly confused is Justin.  for
all his wild talk, "look at me" antics, crazy past, and what have you,
he's become a genuine (though oddly dressed) upper management toady.  he
schmoozes with them, he preaches their propaganda, he works on 'that side
of the office,' I'm sure he reports on his peers - in short, as a
co-worker, I loathe him.  and I just don't get it.  I don't think he's
always been this way.  as another of my co-workers put it, "Yeah, these
days, I don't even trust him as far as I can throw him."  well,

they say if you're not a rebel by 20, you've got no heart
but if you haven't turned estabilishment by 30, you've got no brain

perhaps justin's just growing up fast.

one thing about work that's great: working.  it's only been a few days,
and I really don't care for the actual work that I'm doing, but it feels
wonderful to be _doing something_.  actually WORKING for eight hours a
day.  following a set schedule.  or maybe I hate it.  it's hard to tell
with me.  

sarah's back tomorrow!  I'm sure it won't really hit me until she's
actually standing in front of me, just as it happened the other two months
we were apart this summer.  absence makes the heart grow fonder, my ass.
having her here with me will make the heart grow fonder.  

whee.  now that I've done the "nat's brain in review" for the last 24
hours, I have nothing to actually SAY.  oops.
