So many distractions
You know, life is sort of funny. In our modern world we try to compartmentalize our emotions, keeping emotions for one thing seperate from another. Of course, this is not really how it works even though we like to pretend.

At work things are very busy right now getting ready for the next release and I have been trying to work hard to meet my goals.. to have the things ready that I have to have ready on time for internal (and external) review. The difficulty has been all the things happenning at work distracting me from getting this done. Please don't get me wrong, normally the things people come to me with are part of my job and something that needs doing.. but every time someone pulls me away from what I'm working on it takes about 20 minutes to get back into it.. and then someone else is pulling me away.

So thats the situation at work... now at the game this weekend I found myself being unreasonably irritated by distractions from the game. Again, there was a deadline because the game was ending early and I was wanting to do the gaming part.. but when someone stopped the game for out of character jokes, or a question was asked of the GM and that other people insisted on answering in such a way that prevented the GM's answer, all that frustration at work with distractions started building up at the game. The end result was me starting to start snapping at people by the end of the game.

Obviously I need to begin decompressing more from work so that I don't irritate my friends to much. For me, that means things like bicycle riding and photography. I'll talk with ShadowCatt-X about it tonight to see if she'd like to come along or would rather stay at home. I suspect she'll rather stay at home since she's in the middle of levelling up her new Villain character in City of Heroes.

On the flip side, ShadowCatt-X and I went to see Kung Fu Panda with Melchar and Gilrandir! I haven't laughed so hard in a long time! It's definitely a movie thats going on my must buy list! I'll not go into details, however, because I don't want to spoil it for anyone who has yet to see it! Still, I HIGHLY reccomend this movie!
