Where are your priorities?

After a 12 hour day yesterday (and I'm still not finished with the presentation for the 10:30 Monday meeting) I'm left wondering what I'm doing—why I'm still chasing dollars so hard, when I know they don't satisfy me. And coincidentally, in the Morning Fix, Mark Morford started my day with this simple but extremely well-written revelation: we work way, way too much.

Well, the decision is made for me that if I'm going to ruin a day this weekend by going back to the office, it'll have to be tomorrow. While I still need to flee my neighborhood and it's thumpy How Weird Street Fair (Thumpy Techno a block away + headache from playing Harry Potter far too late into the evening = one irritable worker drone), I need to get a haircut and buy film before The Boyfriend and I go get tickets for the Flying Karamozov Brothers tonight in Berkeley.

In between, I'm not sure if there's a diary entry to be squeezed out or if I've just got Quiddich practice—Madam Hooch says I'm a natural on a broomstick.

Life Imitates Blog.

Hey, remember when I described what I'd be doing in my version of Hell? Wasn't that funny? Ha ha ha.

Let's just say that it's been a "Jingle Bell Rock" kind of a day.

I just want to go home and ~~go back to bed~~ throw away my pillows. Perhaps a little cleaning, too. Ah, well, there's no rest for the wicked.

Day-old Links, Half-Off.

I don't like mondays.

Everything went a little crazy for a while yesterday while we launched a new site at work, but thanks to my keen flash skills everything seems to be working as usual now.

Today has been a little nutty too; with my boss suspiciously out sick after the launch, I'm eating my lunch from the microwave and craving a tasty Vitamin Water (yes, I'm a wannabe hipster now) with Dragon Fruit and Echinacea. The rest of the week should be calmer, so I can get back to doing my real¹ work.
