Things I want to say

[edg]

My I Aggro Drama T-shirt arrived yesterday. It is exactly as it ought to be.

I have pulled a muscle in my forearm by way of shifting a branch that fell onto my driveway as a result of last night's storm. Said branch was 30 feet long and six inches across at the thickest point. I had hoped to actually get it out into the swamp, but finally I just moved it off the driveway and left it. Now my arm hurts, but in weird ways - it's sort of a very quiet background ache normally, but I can't open a door without it hurting. (Weirdly, vertical stress, like carrying a bag, doesn't hurt at all.)

Also as a result of the storm, and the concomitant power outage, I slept horribly last night. I kept waking up from the heat, and when I did sleep it was restless, troubled sleep. I dreamt all night of code that didn't work right.

I am deeply, desperately afraid of a conversation I am probably going to have sometime in the next few days. There are really only two possible outcomes (well, I can think of several others, but they all boil down to the same two general outcomes) to the conversation; I know which one I want, and I know which one I expect, and ne'er the twain shall meet.

*yuck* at the general concept of conversations like that. i've been involved in far far too many of them in my life.

I hope your arm feels better today.
And that the conversation isn't nearly as bad as you fear it will be.

i have a conversation like that coming up as well, and it's probably going to be that much worse since it's a conversation that I should have had awhile ago. I can't imagine any good outcomes coming from this. I wish you luck with yours, if it has not been discussed already.
