Today? Didn't suck. Though the 3 hours of real sleep I got last night should have fucked me up. (Memo to self: Look at the time before slugging down buckets of caffeine.)

I woke up late. Got to work half an hour late. But the horrible Tokyo conference is done (for me, at least). Yay!! Management will be GONE next week. I love my boss, so this is not about her, but there's a very 'the cat's away' type of feeling for conference weeks.

I have finally unchained myself from the deathgrip of html work and am working on a mouse-brain case study. I had a lovely time this afternoon cranking information out of Jeff The Magnificent Oracle. He is so damn smart. (Shut up, you ARE. Also, MANLY.) And so, that was fun. In fact, it's these moments that make me need to pinch myself. I can't believe I get paid, and paid well, to come to work and hang out in an office with one of my best friends and talk about fluor-reversed pairs.

So, I'm going to work on the study this weekend and play with my new Genetics book which I've had to set aside. Purr.

I met [livejournal.com profile] realrobert for coffee and we talked about my intense fears about home-ownership. He's such a good guy, and obviously very smart. Our meeting lent me much needed peace of mind. So soon there will be slightly hysterical posts about condo-searching. I will be setting up talks with lenders early next week and just...omfg. But no, will stay calm. (EEEK.) The end of this week will mark my reaching the savings goal I'd set for myself, and I think I will be able to far exceed it by the time I actually find a place I want to buy.

Just no more frivolous shopping or trips. *stern*

And then I trapped Jeff in my office again and wouldn't let him leave because I am in the throes of FRIDAY FRISKINESS! *scampers around* It's nice out, life is pretty great, I'm reaching the goals I've set for myself, even if I'm shit-scared about them. Even the slight soreness in my right leg is a welcome reminder of my accomplishments with the bike. My life is so, so, SO much better than it was a year ago. In every way possible.

Also, I'm having a great hair day *swishes it around*

And now we're heading out for some drinks with coworkers and everyone seems to be perky today.

Yay! Yay! Yay!

AND I CAN SLEEP IN TOMORROW *shriek of joy*

AND I just got The Upside of Anger on dvd and it has 8 deleted scenes, a featurette and a commentary with Mike Binder and Joan Allen. I love this movie. Can't wait to see it again. And omg curling up in bed with the kitty.

I love Fridays!!
