I had a good weekend for a change, which included both laziness and activity. I went to First Friday again this weekend (the Phoenix Art-Walk basically) and intended to meet up with Meeble but missed he and his girlfriend at Monochid (though I was there at likely the same time). I did run into other friends and made a night of it, drinking a few beers and enjoying the activity at Firehouse (art gallery/artist space). That was interesting for reasons I won’t get into.

I got home close to 5 am so I spent Saturday sleeping til 10 am and then a period of under-activity. I napped and did some laundry. Sunday I got an invite to dinner with a gentleman I met last FF and whom I got to talk with this FF. He’s a very nice, intelligent gentleman so we had a nice, relaxed dinner at the mexican restaurant at Rancho Mercado and then had a drink at Bikini Lounge (fun for it’s tacky dive bar atmosphere).

And now, here I am at work on Monday. I’m tired and super under-motivated. I spent my morning pouring over some production reports which are pretty fantastic but not exactly what was requested by my manager. I think when they do come together, they should hopefully exceed her expectations. I’m half wanting to pursue these on a quarterly basis and half expecting that after all the work done on them that they will be under-utilized. In any event, they’ve made my day go by quickly causing me to start lunch 38 minutes late.

Otherwise it’s a decent day out and I’m feeling pretty relaxed. My brain isn’t functioning at 100% capacity which I don’t like. I dislike days where I’m not as motivated as I would like to be and lately, I’ve been experiencing that with a scary frequency. I think I need some additional activities or challenge in my day to get me back on track. At least I realize I’m not on the track I’d like to be on. That’s the first most important step, isn’t it?

Hopefully everyone else had a great weekend. I’m going to enjoy my fruit/yogurt and get back to work.
