I don’t know why I’m still tired. I slept fairly deeply last night. Maybe it’s all of the emotions tangled with Sir’s situation. We talked for a while last night, and there’s mixed emotions with that.
I may be seeing him tonight after work. Since work doesn’t end until 1am we’re playing it by ear. I don’t know what my energy level will be like later. I don’t know how he will feel after the events of today. There are a lot of unknowns that can drastically change how either of us feel on a social level.
So currently there’s no set plans. No obligations. Which my introvert appreciates.
I got stuff and things done yesterday. I got almost everything on my list done which was nice.
I completed the grading, but my email was being screwy so I couldn’t email the information to Clavan until I was on campus. I ended up seeing him in the hall because I had to go back out to my car for something. I let him know that I had just sent the Excel sheet with the grading, and he said I could go ahead and post the grades and comments on my own.
Lame…
I added that task to my to-do list and knocked it out though. It’s not hard, and it doesn’t take all that long. It was just an additional thing to do that I hadn’t originally factored into my day.
While I was at home I messaged Jon about the money for the laptop. He said he would pay me ‘next paycheck’. That message was on the 12th and since the military pays out on the 15th I wasn’t sure if he meant he would pay me in a few days, or the beginning of next month.
I’m not hurting for the money, but knowing when to expect it would be cool.
I messaged Sam because we’re supposed to try to meet up today. I honestly don’t know what’s going on. I’m trying to get some stuff over to her house that she wanted, but every time I asked if that’s what we were doing I never got a reply. So I truly have no idea what’s going on in that department, and at 8:40 in the morning I can’t bring myself to care just yet. My coffee still requires most of my attention.
One of my former classmates messaged me the other night asking if I knew anyone with a dragon rig. I messaged Tre to see if he would be interested in letting my friend use his dragon asset for personal VFX projects, to which he said yes. So I got them in touch with each other yesterday.
I messaged Rhonda to confirm a lunch date where we can talk about freelance and different things she can do for her reel. That’s going to be Saturday.
Once I got into work I critiqued Desiree’s rig. It’s pretty solid over all. The things I noticed were more from an animator’s stand point, and minor functionality issues. We’re going to spend some time talking about it Friday after the PCC critiques.
I worked on my 30 Day Challenge while I was on break. I was worried that I wouldn’t get to that, but I was awesome and totally wormed it into my day. I even sort of finished setting up my Work Base at work.
I say sort of because I got the surge protector velcroed down to the desk, however the extension cord doesn’t have a three pronged socket, so the surge protector can’t plug into it…
Leave it to me to buy the wrong thing when I have both objects in my hand… /sigh
So I have to return the extension cord at some point and see if they have the kind I actually need. I don’t think they will. I think if they had had options I would have looked more closely rather than assuming that all of the stuff they offered worked together seamlessly.
The one time Publix let me down. Sad day.
So I’m one step closer, but not completed with that project.
Since I changed my address the other day I had coupons in my email that I wanted to print out. I work with a Zero Inbox setup. If I have an email in my inbox that means something needs to be done with it. There’s some action that still needs to happen.
Currently I have 4 emails from Fredenator since I still haven’t completed that. I have several from the 30 Day Challenge as well since I’m still working through the days I missed. Plus I had four emails for coupons…
My brain was freaking out every time I looked at my inbox. How could I let myself get so far behind? ;-;
Well, at least I got those coupon emails out of my inbox. I’m working on the 30 Day Challenge. And as far as the Fredenator thing goes, I might add that to my tasks for over the weekend. One good thing about this class I’m taking is that all of the homework is due by Friday, which leaves me two whole days to myself.
Too bad I normally have to work on Saturdays, so I really only ever have one day to myself.
I was supposed to do most of my reading for school last night. But that didn’t really happen. Sir messaged me and we ended up talking for my entire lab. I don’t regret it. Just noting that my day today is going to be structured a bit differently to make up for incomplete work.
It was actually the only thing on my list that I didn’t get to which would have been nice.
The reading this week shouldn’t be as rough as last week. We’re moving on to copyright stuff, which I think will be more relevant than patents. Once the reading is done I can take the quiz, which leaves only the case study, which I feel can be completed tomorrow. That, along with a reply post or two for the discussion board. I already have people disagreeing with my stance. Too bad I can’t post this picture as my reply.
As of right now I plan to cross stitch while my Mac Book reads to me. We’ll see where things go from there. I don’t have to go to lab until 9pm. A nap might be in order later. Aikido is at 7 but that doesn’t really leave me with time to shower before going to work… It’s looking like the only time I’ll be able to go this week is Saturday. At least that means I’ll have earned my lunch with Rhonda. The trend so far is that Saturday practice kicks my ass.
