The sweetness of evil

I have succumbed. A new case of joy juice is here. But it's not on auto-delivery, and it's just to get us through the Long Dark Night of Covad, and I've only had half a bottle. Starting to twitch. Hyper-alert brain engaging. WEEEEEEE!

Had a good aikido class--I worked for the first time with someone who didn't have the Dark Pants of Instructorhood (actually, from a comment I overheard, I think maybe you get to wear those if you have a black belt). Much fun and some good pointers. I think this fellow (his name is Gavin) would probably be cool to hang out with, too.

The interesting, and somewhat vexatious, thing is that I had a heck of a time forcing myself to go to class today. Definite lizard brain happening, and I don't know why. Fortunately I have learned to recognize that voice and know to do the opposite, but sometimes it's hard to fight the inertia--even when I _know_ I'll really enjoy whatever it doesn't want me to do. It was a close one today. Is it just laziness, or what?

Lovely evening last night with my darling pet. Valentine cards everywhere. :) Came into the office to find flowers on my desk, too (I think that would be Brian's doing). In spite of ongoing turmoil at work and home, I'm feeling pretty happy in life right now.
