So, I feel like work has just eaten my life for the last two weeks, and like I haven't been productive at work, at the same time, which is a really junky feeling. Having thought about it for a bit, it's that while there's been an emergency for the last two weeks, such that I can't really plan anything else reliably, 'cause I don't know if I'm going to be dragged to work, and so I can't relax, I haven't actually been called in to do stuff nearly that often, as my bosses are (generally) handling most of it, and I just need to catch the overflow when they can't deal. It's very frustrating. I did do a couple of things done this weekend at work, but not enough to justify that I was in at work both days, about half the day Saturday and all day today.

On the other hand, I feel better about Conspiracy after the afternoon meeting we had yesterday. Everything gelled for the first time, really, and I feel like we have it under control, where it was this writhing mass of undisciplined ideas before. We'll see if that actually holds. We recruited a new gm, too, which should help.

Oh, and I saw Pirates of the Caribbean Friday night, and it was as good as everyone says. I think I like Orlando Bloom better without the blond wig, and the two pirate captains are absolutely brilliant.
