God, what a bummer of a day it's been… it's been a real Barry Crocker…
I woke up about 9:30 am because it was overcast, had breakfast with my pills and headed into work. Bumped into Lloyd (again!) and got to work about 11:00 am. Still was lost trying to decide where to take my research, so mostly I just stuffed around. Went to the library and was flicking through some journal articles when I came across an idea which I had thought about in the past but had discarded as too long and labour intensive. Unfortunately now it seemed like my last best hope and so I didn't have too much choice. I began the necessary reactions to prepare starting materials in the afternoon, and it was good to at least have some sort of short-term plan to look out along.
I spent a fair amount of time looking at what was available accommodation wise in Canberra for a one bedroom flat under about $150. There are a fair number of places available, but the majority are out in Watson and Downer which is quite a distance. Also, I am currently paying $120 without utilities… thus I need to be looking for places under the $125 mark otherwise I'm going to start having soaring bills. *sigh*
Red called and so I went to chat with her on the Union steps. She had been to the doctor who had quizzed her rather intensely after discovering her sexuality, so it was just like me on Tuesday. *lol* We chatted till about 3:30 pm and then we had to go.
I went back to the lab and worked away. At 4:30 pm I went to have coffee with Nikki who was just finishing work. I basically released my emotional catharsis upon her, which I feel bad about, but which I had to get out of my body. I was just swirling around in a dozen different directions, happy, depressed, angry, jealous and more. The coffee was definitely starting to get to me. At one point Red tapped me on the shoulder as she was leaving after chatting with her friend Louise. So after about an hour she had to go and we headed off. I was feeling a little better, and went back to work till about 6:00 pm. I ordered a pizza since I couldn't face the prospect of cooking. So I came home, dumped my stuff and did the usual coming home ritual. Picked up and gorged on Pizza till I was bloated and disgusted with myself. Had a shower just for the hell of it… didn't even bother with soap, just needed to be warm.
After that I chatted with Boozer about rental junk, and at about 10:30 pm I headed back over to the lab to put on another carbon experiment. Now I'm home and chatting intermittently to Szusza on ICQ.
I suppose I'm feeling pretty blue at the moment there is no doubt of that. How much is the Progynova I'm not sure, but it's certainly aggravated by the other crap going on. I rang the front desk of John's to find out exactly when self-catered was being terminated, and the bastards hung up on me… slack pricks… Grrr…
What else has been happening? Not much… I think the new pill anti-biotic is giving me headaches, thankfully they are counteracted by knocking back some Aspirin, so more pills…
Thankfully my room was vacuumed today, but now all the crap which was on the floor is now on the couch.

12:30 am - Way past my bedtime, I'm already gone…
