For the second consecutive day, the winds were alive and well in the immediate area. I didn't think that they weren't as strong as they were yesterday, but it wasn't until I hopped on the freeway for a few minutes and felt the car forcefully and involuntarily swaying to the left that I reconsidered that stance. It had briefly gotten to a point where I had to drive using both hands, which I seldom do, but have no problem doing when the circumstances call for it. As was also the case today, like yesterday, the winds made things a little colder than they probably would have been had the wind stayed completely dead. I kept my hoodie on all day yet again and rest assured, I am not complaining because I had actually prayed for some cold and winter-like weather and indeed, it has been delivered.
The office was dead again this morning, as it typically is on Friday. Half the office is gone on Friday, while the other half that works on Friday takes the following Monday off. This means I tend to be at my [mostly] happiest on Friday and Monday when the office is half empty.
I lead a mostly sedentary lifestyle and this is especially the case at work. I should move more than I currently, but I don't. Not long after I had arrived at the office this morning at 4:42am and sat down in my cubicle, I realized that I had forgotten to put my iced coffee inside of the small refrigerator inside of Morie's office. Typically, I'll drink that iced coffee with with my breakfast closer to 5:30am. I don't know how I did this, but not long after I sat back up and made my way towards Morie's office behind me, I felt something in my right knee. The pain wasn't unbearable to where I couldn't walk, but for much of the day, I found myself walking with a limp. Even as I write this, that pain remains, but being that I'm seated, it doesn't bother me. I am reluctant to stand up and put weight on it. I took some Tylenol about a hour ago, so we'll see if that happens to do anything.
Speaking of fucking lazy, people in the office are so damn lazy and generally lack what I would consider to some form of etiquette. I believe that this past Wednesday, someone brought in a dozen donuts, I guess for people in the office to share and otherwise enjoy. Today, two days later mind you, that now-empty donut box was still on the same damn file cabinet where it was originally placed when those donuts first arrived. No one had any fucking sense to maybe check the box and throw it out. Now, I know what you're thinking. Why didn't I throw the box away myself? Excellent question, I will admit. I have a few reasons:
--Because I didn't fucking buy the donuts or put the damn box there.
--Because I'm not part of the office's cleaning crew.
--Because maybe there's a chance that whoever put the box there and left it there might want it back.
--Because I didn't get to eat any of those donuts.
--Because I didn't fucking feel like it.
Petty, I know. If it matters, this sort of thing happens all the time. Sometimes, they'll leave pizza boxes out. Bagel boxes. Donut boxes, as was the case this week. Trays of cookies. Why it's so hard to clean up, is beyond me. It fucking irritates me to no end.
I got my haircut today. I don't know if I necessarily needed it today, but I'm glad I went. That's two weeks of not having to do a thing with my hair, except wash it. No gel. No product of any kind. Don't really even need to comb or brush it either. It's that short and I will likely need a beanie for the next two weeks, especially if it remains cold outside. I also shaved this morning to complete the look. This is the cleanest I'll will look for the next two weeks, with the short hair and a clean goatee. Personal hygiene is definitely a thing and one that I guess I take seriously. I suppose if it wasn't for work, I probably wouldn't even bother. But, you know, if I'm going to get this paper, I might want to wash my ass more than twice a week.
I'm working again tomorrow. Yes, it is Saturday, which means that I'll be at my most comfortable tomorrow while in the office. I won't be there all day, but I'll be there long enough...maybe. I don't know. I'll figure it out. All I know is that I'll be there early.
That's all I have for now. I'll be headed to bed soon.
