cellomusetteGoGo Gadget Fuckhead landlord had a lawyer and my mother didn't, so she got nothing from the hearing yesterday. Guess there's some sort of sexual-harassment backlash going on. The judge told her he thought she was making it all up, even though she had multiple letters saying she'd been complaining about the harassment for 10 years. She was obviously depressed, but kept saying "Don't have a heavy heart about it, I'll be fine". Sure, Mom. My head is spinning about this. One part of me wants to violently attack the sleazebag myself. Another part of me wishes I had a large income so I could buy her a house. I can't stand seeing her continually getting smacked down...she was told most of her life that she'd never amount to anything, and she raised me in the opposite way, and I desperately want to repay her by getting her out of the shithole. Forever.
I burned my fingers yesterday, 20 minutes before I left work. it was my own fault. i was trying to make a glass-only pick that would work on the worms and wouldn't break...when it didn't happen, I got bored and started fucking around with the glass, trying to make cool shapes. Forgot that the glass was hot and grabbed it, burning myself nicely. I should put up a sign over my bench and desk that just says "Don't Be An Asshole." That would cover most issues I think.
OPN was good as usual. However I had the experience for the first time of meeting a Suspect that I didn't really like. Normally, everyone I meet in this crowd is nifty. The person was sort of pretentious and vaguely superior...I was surprised. Got hyper and started knocking things over and saying things that didn't make sense. I felt pretty off-balance and acted appropriately...reminds me of how I used to be at Genzyme. I was always nervous, and compensated by acting kind of outrageous and goofy---breaking into dance routines in the middle of setting up a run on the pipetting robot. The underlying state was never mania. Just anxiety. I'm not really nuts, I just use my imagination to try and dispel my nerves, so I can seem really off-the-wall at times.
I woke up naturally at 6am, ate an actual breakfast, and am planning to hit the pool soon. We'll see how it goes.
