dark cloud rides Foul would be the best way to describe my mood when I went into work last night. Being there was not something that appealed to me and I was ready to go home almost as soon as I got there. Making the transition from weekend to work has never been easy for me, because my whole mindset has to change and I tend to resist that kind of thing. Suddenly work thrusts me back into a world of acronyms and procedures neither of which were missed while I was away. Almost everything that is said to me by my coworkers sounds silly and I can't imagine why any of it is important. Even Ann saying that she liked my haircut didn't improve my mood. It wasn't until I started to get busy at work that I was able to make the not so subtle mental shift in my thinking. ... Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Comical at times, yet still effective on other levels. Sometimes I kept looking for the manga style speed lines behind the characters. Some of the action scenes almost screamed for them. Even better than seeing the movie was spending some time with Ann and another friend at a restaurant afterwards. Personally I wouldn't mind making this a weekly event.
