so much for media deprivation.

i broke the self-imposed rule around two nights ago when, out of habit, i plopped down in front of the tv to eat my usual breakfast of cereals and coffee.

then, in a pithy attempt to get back to media deprivation, i turned on the radio but lowered the volume that i could barely hear it, yet going about my dressing up with the awareness that it's really on.

yes, that's twisted logic for you.

so what has happened to me this week?

* i've been meeting a lot of new people at work and at the workshop.
* they feed me a lot at work.
* the valuable reminder of doing things immediately is rammed in my head constantly. it just might stick this time.
* i am now generating newfound respect for administrative staff members.
* while i do remember the wonderful monday lunch and bus trip with a., monday truly feels like twenty years ago.
* i am a closet self-help semi-junkie.
* i don't give a rat's ass how the previous item sounded.
* i wish it were already sunday in 10962 camia st.
