I feel for you, Michael. Today happens to be a stat holiday in Canada, Victoria Day. But tomorrow its Tuesday....

Woke up with a headache and can't get rid of it. ::sad::

GOD I'm bored. I had what I thought was a promising interview with a company on Monday - I should be hearing back sometime today re "next steps" - We'll see how it goes. I've been teetering between depressed, anxious, and just barely OK lately... I should be thankful that at least I have a job (even if it does bore me to tears).

Last night I couldn't sleep. I had this great idea for a story or novel but writing it down just seems so incredibly daunting - I wish there were a plug in the base of my skull that I could slip into the USB port of my computer and transfer my thoughts directly...

I think about that a lot, actually; the idea of having a feed through the base of your skull that you could connect to others' skull so that you could communicate without talking; I wish I could do that when I'm too tired to speak but awake enough to want to still connect with my hubby... I could connect the cord between our brains and push him warmth and love as I drift off to sleep...

My hubby is a transhumanist who believes in The Singularity (f that stupid Johnny Depp movie, btw)... I suppose this is along the same lines, but if your mind is joined with someone else's, how do you control what is transmitted between the two? Maybe I don't want to share everything with everyone who's uploaded into the same machine...

I hope things go the way you want as far as your new job opportunities. For the little time I have been with the forum, you come across as a lovely young lady..always cheering people on! My special little demon is anxiety so I hear you as far as that goes..

Awww, Thank You. At least I currently have a job, so I should be thankful at that. ::cool::


Do you mind if I ask - What is your screenname based on?

Not at all. She is a character from the book "Dracula". She kidnaps little children at night but returns them relatively unscathed, save for the little bite marks on their necks. The children call her "The Bloofer Lady". It is more than likely Lucy Westenra.

I can't believe I didn't remember that!

Cool! Sadly, I've never read the whole book. ::embarrassment::

HF - Did I ever tell you that it took me at least a year into this forum to make the connection of what your screenname was in reference to? ::embarrassment:: I was always obsessed with sharks, so, uhm, I just thought you were too... ::embarrassment::

ROFL!!! When I first posted as hammerfan (I joined HDC under another name), newb posted a picture of MC Hammer. Too funny!
