Wasting Away in Cube Land...

Here I sit, at 3:15, waiting for Time to inch ponderously forward.

I think it's stuck. Time, that is. It doesn't seem to be moving much. I've read all the web comics I keep up with. Checked the ones that didn't update. Read CNN. Several times. Looked at the weather, and the radar, multiple times, to make sure "The Big One" isn't headed this way. It's not. I've read and responded to email. I'm running out of things to do. Oh, and I've done my work for today!

If the rest of the week keeps up like this, I'm going to have to bring a book, or knitting, or something in to do, or I'm going to go nuts! After awhile, I just don't want to surf the web, or read the same stories on CNN again. Things don't change that quickly. I know, I've checked.

Right on queue, it's clouding up outside. Don't know if I'll actually get rain on the way home, but it's getting to be odd if I don't drive home under cloudy skies. Does make it a little cooler, which is nice. I do appreciate that. Aurora is on the eastern side of Denver, across the city from the mountains, and any cool breezes that might wend their way down out of the heights. This makes Aurora very warm. Hot, even. Since my poor car sits outside all day on blazing hot, black asphalt, it makes for a very uncomfortable few moments when I first sit in my car. Luckily, the air conditioning kicks in quickly, so I don't sweat for too long. Otherwise, I'd have to try driving home with my head hanging out the window. The police don't like that so much, I've heard.

Oy! Still 45 minutes to go. It'd definitely a Wednesday. The days are dragging slowly into that downhill slide into the weekend, which can't possibly get here fast enough for me. This is my first weekend without anything planned, that I know of. I'm looking forward to it.
