More apocalypse, less angst
another day….
a solid night’s sleep makes for a world of difference – which is a good thing – because my presence in another disciplinary case has been requested for later this morning, and i need all the morale i can get at the moment. it must just be one of those weeks, that’s all i can account it to… some alignment of the stars and management that is making all these meetings line up like symbols on a slot-machine that pays out in wooden nickels.
last night i spent packing and reading – managed to plow through ursula k le guin’s 1971 classic, the lathe of heaven between yesterday and this morning’s ferry ride. i drove into town today because i am staying in tonight and leaving for victoria tomorrow after work….. i had considered cancelling my trip this weekend because the prospect of staying home and doing nothing is infinitely appealing at the moment. however, one of the plans i already made is a visit to a friend imprisoned at william head, and canceling with no way of letting him know would be a really shitty thing to do… so i’ve decided to go over and do nothing more than some low-key hanging out with friends… which is also a worthwhile break from some of the things going on at the moment.
as i have work to attend to (and lots of it), this will suffice for the moment – hopefully i will get a chance to post a little more later.

Hey, I read “Lathe of Heaven” a few months ago. It was the only one of her books I have read, but it was terrific, I thought. She packed a lot into a pretty thin volume.
Sorry your week has been a downer, but thanks from all of us working stiffs who owe so much to our union reps.
