Well I was bad, but needed to be bad for my own good. I woke up this morning and decided not to go to work today. Yes, I played hooky once again. I know you shouldn’t, but things had been hairy the past couple of days at McMann and Tate culminating on Friday, and I just couldn’t face it. Don’t get me wrong the work is good, but I needed a break from the high stress and high-strung personalities. I will go back tomorrow, as that was the original plan all along. I was looking forward to it somewhat, but then I had an online chat with Felicia.

Things that should’ve been done by the London office weren’t done which left the office in a tizzy, or at least Felicia and the IT guy. And the coffee machine broke. So it wasn’t going well on that front. I would’ve had to deal with the coffee machine dilemma and I’m sure I would have had no problem. The other aspect was deeper into the organization way behind the scenes and quite beyond my reach. So Felicia had to deal with everything on her own today. I guess I took the right day off. It was bright and sunny after all.

Of course, no one was around to share it with. Bill’s working, Annemarie and company are in California, Julio’s in Europe with Stine, Juan is away at school, Song is on the other side of the world. I kept myself busy some how, cleaned around the apartment a bit, bought cleaning supplies. I know I could’ve done it over the weekend but it was just too gray outside. I spent a lot of time outside, more than I did both Saturday and Sunday. I even tried to fix the computer, once again, I am writing this on Bill’s equipment.

Didn’t work out too well and I shut it down. Perhaps oh perhaps I will get a new one. Then I’ll show them! I watched daytime TV a bit today and it was as bizarre as it ever was. Rosie O’Donnell is on the View now, Ellen DeGeneres is on at a different time. These lesbians on TV, doing their lesbian shtick. Lip Shtick Lesbians! Well they didn’t want to come out on their own, and like what was stated on the brilliant season opener of ‘The Office’, coming out is a very personal process. Check AfterElton on the blogroll the right column.

I also watched Janet Jackson on Oprah. I’m sure she’s talented but does she really sing and dance on stage or is she lip syncing? She has a very soft speaking voice as well. Is it an act? They say her brother Michael sounds very different behind closed doors, and that the soft voice he uses is also an act. She was interesting enough to make me forget that Ellen was on. I like some of Janet Jackson’s songs, I admit it. Haven’t heard much from her lately, and to tell you the truth, I didn’t even notice. Soft words.
