gnrgh.

Ok, I would like it if MT had a privacy option so I could post things that only friends could see, except I have no idea how that would work, so anyway I’m posting here to rant. My new boss is an idiot. Or perhaps he’s just a jerk and a micromanager; anyway, he’d really rather those of us who don’t work in the office did work in the office, and he’s already laid off (or rather, failed to re-hire) a contractor who’d been with the company more than 3…

man

Man, I slept for like nine thousand hours. Very, /very/ tired me. Perhaps eventually I’ll stop being so fat and thus stop being so tired.

rivendell

miles walked to Rivendell: 13.5 Have fallen v. far behind Jai. Am determined to catch up, preferably by thinking, ‘WALK REAL SLOW, JAI’ with such intensity that her footsteps tread more slowly until she is walking as if through treacle. If this plan does not work, will be forced to walk faster/longer myself. Seems like wretched idea. Am hoping intense thought scenario will work. Met half-blind but friendly (is there any other kind?) golden retriever on trail today. Should try to remember camera to take pictures of mountains/inlet on daily…
