Drunken debauchery

[pphaneuf]

Work is rather interesting, these days. I really don't get to code much, and while I wish I could (particular on my baby!), I really feel like I have some traction on issues and that things are going forward. I think I'll actually try to lay down some code myself tomorrow.

But to go with work, there is play.

This friday, at 9pm, drunken debauchery at Mad Hatter will be done. I know, it's iffy, bohemianpsyche is in forced reclusion (by order of the doctor), chickcurious is sick (still?), blacksquiggles has something else... But I'll be there, as I need it badly, freaky_kiki said she would be there and my friend Christian will be there (well, one of the two, anyway!).

Skimming off my friends list... cassadoodles, cpirate, denizsarikaya, jimmysworld, joenotcharles, kyotto, marcydoll... Any takers? Others?

I just did something rather weird (by accident), but that I'm very proud of. I went and did something that pushed my own buttons, semi-purposedly, and I feel my guts wrenching in an unpleasant way, but went and just felt it go through me. It smarted a bit, but I found myself smiling at the end!? I know this will probably let me down in the most inopportune moment (it did, recently), but right now, I feel like I can go through anything, without avoidance, and make it.

I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total oblivion.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.

Well, I'm sure I won't be at your dinner party, yes! But I shall be at the Mad Hatter around 9pm. I was maybe planning on having dinner at Hurley's before, as it's been a while and was a bit of a tradition for a time.

That'd be cool to see you guys!

And Mr gregorama shall be there? Excellent.

It applies to a great deal of emotions. Denial and guilt are two that I can think of right away. A sense of loss and emptiness can leave you without much of a mind to work with.
