Ease

I like that the stress of work is gone, even if it's only a brief hiatus. I feel like I've accomplished more in the past hour than I have in months. I haven't felt like I've been chasing my tail. And my soul doesn't feel like it's been sucked out of me. It's not going to last, but I'm going to revel in it while I can.

I have to do a drug test for my new job on thursday, on my way through Fort McMurray. I've never had to pee in a cup for work before (I started here before they started pre-employment testing). I'm not worried (because I'm not a drug addict), but it occurred to me that I don't know if marigold would show up on those things. I never considered that I would have to explain the use of herbs as a part of religious practice to future employers.

I am:
Loving the new Audioslave album, particularly "Man or Animal" and "Dandelion".
Playing Morrowind still.
Feeling a little guilty about buying Penguin Book of Norse Myths (actually I bought a copy for Sonja too). But these books are hard to come by, damnit!! There, I justified it.
Looking forward to getting the next day and a half over with.

If you're laughing at this fool tonight
Let me rid myself of any line that I might use to trip you up
And as I'm howling at the moonlight, don't you kid yourself
I will be your luck
Cause even at my worst
I will be your luck
Never be your curse
-Audioslave ('tis vera lycanthropic, so I had to jot 'er down)
