like all the things you can fit inside a memory
So, yesterday evening I lost my phone somewhere between my car, the Biddeford Hannaford, and Jason's apartment. After much checking and attempting to call it, I concluded it's lost forever and bought a new one. Now I need to recreate my address book. Everyone, text or call me, please? My number is the same; if you don't have it, let me know.
I am fairly pleased with my new phone (QWERTY keyboard FTW!) and it wasn't as expensive as I feared due to the niceness of the Verizon store folks, but I feel slightly disgruntled and somewhat guilty that I was so careless.
In other news, work stress is gradually bleeding over into life stress, primarily because of Christmas. I'm averaging about nine hours a day at work now, not including lunch, which is lower than the average 10 hours a day a few weeks back but is still a long day. And I'm so behind on everything that I am constantly fighting mental inertia - I have no idea how I'll ever get caught up, so it's easy to slow down and just get the minimum done, and I really have to push myself to do more. This all equates to little time and less mental energy to think up and shop for Christmas presents. I still have several people to buy gifts for - this is by far the most down-to-the-wire Christmas I've ever had.
Eh, enough whining. My life is actually really good - I'm having a lot of fun, my friends are great, and Jason is amazing. I'm just a little tired, and therefore grumpy. But it will pass. More importantly: PHONE NUMBERS. And I shall venture out of Panera on what will hopefully be my last shopping trip of the Christmas season.

Sorry to hear about work, but it'll get better (provided you are the squeaky wheel). Of course, you could just quit and move to Stamford ^_^
A plus!!
