When Mercury is in retrograde

Hi blogginos.

It's been a while since I've written an honest-to-goodness post. Things have been a little nuts around here. I know, you're probably sitting there, like:

But for reals. It's been like this:

So what's my deal? 





The planet Mercury.



See,  Mercury is in retrograde. Basically that means everything here on Earth is jacked. When Mercury's doin' it's own thing, spinnin' whichever way it feels it wants to, the Earth gets this funny feeling until all is right again in the universe. I'm* affected in such a way that it makes me act a little "off." (*I'm not the only one. The whole world is-- electronics, people, animals, you name it.)

So my normally organized desk, looks like this:

And more amazingly, I was able to FOCUS on homework and complete my final project in two days.

In my daily life, things have been quite stressful. My boss is retiring and lots of stuff is happening to wrap up the loose ends she might leave behind. I've been trying to stay organized while she's sorting things but let's face it-- it's a hectic time when someone leaves. All things considered, I've been feeling pretty proud of myself handling the stress levels so well up until about a week ago. That's when I finally noticed for myself that I might be a little out of control.

It all started when my coworker came into my office...













Unfortunately that last part isn't exaggerated.

I really did wave a box half my size over my head and throw it at him.

Soooo... moral of the story: Watch your back. Mercury's gonna be doing its own thing for about a month.

Ugh... Mornin'.

Our projected attendance was obliterated last night for my work's annual holiday open house. We had just shy of double the number of people in. I'm exhausted.

But-- I made it to work.

Self-Portrait

Although I am not at liberty to say what is causing this quite yet, I thought you might appreciate a blog with some of my self portraits of today.


Yeah, mostly that last one.
