Back from the Filmhouse bar, where I met with
tisme,
eduard_green,
0olong,
diotina,
call_waiting and
ratmist for a couple of drinks. Was nice to see people - even if it was only for an hour and a half before they headed off to
tisme's to examine the kitten, and I headed home.
It's damn windy out there, not quite up to New Orleans standards, but enough to intermittently rattle the windows and make it a tad tricky to make it through the first 5 pages of The Algebraist (which I started this evening, having finished my Bill Hicks book this afternoon). I love lying in bed listening to the rain, but wind by itself doesn't really do it for me. The sky looked rather pretty tonight, orange light reflected off of a few wispy clouds - rain seems remarkably unlikely.
Tomorrow is my yearly performance review, at which I will no doubt be told that I'm a workshy layabout and no more deserving of a raise than a cockroach. At least that's how I always feel going in - the face that I pretty much universally get a "Sun shines from every orifice" review has little to no effect on my fear level going in...
