agent monica reyes The after work ramblings from yesterday were amusing, but I'm not sure if I am happy with the end result. What I do know is that before I let sleep take over, I did watch the rest of the documentary on The White House and learned more than a few new things. I've never been there, but after what I saw I might have to go there sometime in the future. My television viewing for Saturday night was far less educational than what I had seen in the morning. Instead of a biographical movie or a documentariy, I watched the martial arts classic Enter the Dragon on the Spanish channel. Seeing and or hearing a Spanish dubbed Bruce Lee added a whole new dimension to the film. ... Ann wasn't at work this morning, nor was she at work Saturday night. Actually the last time that I saw her was Friday night as she walked out the door to go to a party with some people from work. She waved goodbye and said that she was ready to have fun. For the hour or so that I saw her that night, she was giddy and playful. In fact she was being so silly that before she left she was wiggling her butt in my face and I grabbed it much too her surprise. Since then I haven't seen or heard from her, nor has anyone else at work. Last night when I was online, I got an email from my boss telling me that she hadn't shown up for work and would I be willing to stay late Sunday and cover part of her shift. I said yes. At the time it was unexpected, but I just thought that she had drank too much and needed to stay home to recover. Partying isn't something that she does all that often and her attitude towards work has been less than positive for the past few months. Maybe missing work wouldn't trouble her that much. Plus there was the telephone call at five in the morning on Saturday from someone looking for her. It seemed that she hadn't gone home yet. Recently things have changed in her life and some of us wondered if she had to make an emergency trip out of state. We didn't know then and we still don't know now. There hasn't been any answer at her home and there isn't anyone else here that we can call. All of her family lives out of state. Options are very limited and all that I can do is wonder. Part of me thinks that something must have happened, but I don't know what that might be. Nor is there any way that I can reach her. All that I can do is wait and hope that she is fine. Maybe I'll know more tomorrow. ... The fact that Thanksgiving is next week dawned on me sometime today and I knew that things were only going to get more busy. School is ending next month and there are still things that I need to do to get everything set up for next semester. This one has gone well, but I have yet to get into the program that I want. To be honest I haven't submitted a new letter of intent. Without a doubt I seem to be fumbling for a direction and understandably so that bothers me. With all of my energy these past few months going into the move, my focus on school was set to a minimum. Now all of that has to change. Maybe not seeing anyone now is for the best, because I really do need to focus on my life and not worry about someone else. I have to come first. I can't divide my time for someone that may or may not be serious about me. Having someone else fading in and out of the picture will not help me. Suddenly my future has become even more hazy than usual for me and fixing that is a priority for me. I have no intention of leaving my job with the current state of panic in the job market, but at the same time I still need school to keep me happy. I need something more in my life than just work. I need to be able to think and learn new things. Work has never done either of those things for me or at the very least not to the degree that I want. ... If someone were to ask me, I'd have to say that the season premiere of The X-Files wasn't that impressive. Then again I was still half asleep while I was watching it, so maybe I missed something. The guest appearance of Lucy Lawless wasn't that interesting, but it was good to see Agent Monica Reyes move into the spotlight some more.
