The Lilith Picnic

*yawn*

I'm sleepy. And I've got another 3.5 hours to go at work.

Reese rubs watery eyes.

I went to bed at 3am. I just had too much food for lunch. I also had 3 large glasses of a mixed vodka drink.

My morning started off pretty slow. My computer fried itself first thing, so I had IT take a look. So basically the entire morning I was PC-less. What's a computer programmer to do, without a computer? They figured it was both hardware- and profile-oriented, so I had to wait. Turns out my keyboard died, and my LAN settings went wonky all by itself. Gremlins, I tell ya.

Then our division had our annual "women-only" Lilith Picnic during lunch. Now in its 6th year, it is an exercise in potluck gourmet gluttony, office-time socialization, and male-isolation. The men in the division (of which there are very few) take it in good fun. Today was the first time I've ever had "blueberry soup", which to my surprise was amazing.

So post gorge-fest, and midday alcohol-imbibement, I am one sleepy girl.

Looking forward to having a big nap at home before the beginnings of a weekend-long Pride blowout!

I need rest because I have a wedding to go to as FoxyLady's date, then the Dyke March, and then I'm the volunteer videographer for the Philippine SAWA (Student Activists Workers Artists) Pride event. Must sleep.

Ugh. I have no idea what to wear tomorrow! I am such a girl.
