Entry 25:
Highlight of My Day: Steak
Well, seeing as my weekend was off a bit, I seemed to have forgotten that it is Monday. Monday means me and Hiiro work today.
Oops.
I overslept, clearly… I didn't wake up until someone rudely, and unnecessarily, barged into my room. What if I was in the middle of Happy Time, huh Hiiro? Seriously. Actually, to be fair, I think I did hear knocking and rapping on my door through my subconscious, it just wasn't linking as to why.
I was half inclined to let him drive us in today, but decided better of it. Gotta show him that I'm all okay now, right… Though I never did have a chance to finish purging myself. At least it's at a manageable level now.
Work. Bleh. I think people wondered why I came in on a weird schedule this past week…
I got the vibe from people that Hiiro was really out-of-sorts on Friday. Some people even came up to him and asked if he was feeling better. I personally can't tell to what extent the words "frazzled and ditzy" might apply to Hiiro, but even still, inside of me I know it was my fault. But somehow, this comforts me…
Does this mean that my personal crazy is that influential on him? I wonder how much his care and, as I am starting to notice, worry for me extends…
I'm half-tempted to test out some theories, but I should probably give us some time to get back to full normal.
It was a little stiff in the office today anyway. I think he had an important meeting in the afternoon because he was a little jumpy al morning, and wasn't around for the second half of the day.
Whatever, got home he went into his room to do something at his computer. I flopped in front of the TV and picked up a random book off from our pseudo-coffee table and started to read it. I've never read it, so I assume it's his, but I've been known to acquire crap that I forget about immediately after, so who knows. Every now and then I'd some across dog-eared pages that I know I'd never care to remember – sappy romance scenes and the like. Overall the book was okay, about a struggling first-gen AC family who was force-relocated to L1 XG4112
Got about 300 pages in when I realized I was hungry.
Steak. Oh meat, how I love you. There was some starch and veggies as well, but the steak was the important part. Called Hiiro in, said I made enough for two, if he wanted any. Of course I did this on purpose, but I half-tried to sound like it was an accident.
We sat and ate pretty much in silence – It's pretty much the one time when there is something more important than talking over the silence, so.
He said he heard about a TV show from someone at work, asked if I'd stay and watch it. Sure, why not. It was pretty stupid. He seemed to enjoy it though. Whatever. Not on my "stay tuned for next time" list.
Also, I finally made the effort to put away (set up) the last remnants of my shit. It's awesome.
That was today. Much better than before. Still tiring, but, bleh.
Also, Note to Self, stop watching him out of the corner of your eye all the time, you're either going to mess up your vision, or get caught. For real. K? Good.
Paz Note: From what I've seen, the colonies have their Lagrange Point, two letters and four numbers (can't remember where I saw this, but…) I'm going to make up a reason for this.
We'll say that the letters have to do with orientation and spin (or even like XY coordinates within the LP –based on it's arrangement in the LP will determine proper spin and orbit) and that the numbers are broken up as follows:
Since the letters are XY coordinates, we'll make the first number the Y-coordinate (they ARE in three dimensional space, after all)
The last three numbers will be specific ports and regions within the colony itself, like saying you're from Buffalo, New York, United States, North America, or Main Street, Buffalo, NY...
So, by my method, if I wrote L1 XG4231 It would be the same Colony, but a different area within that colony. I am not going to bother coming up with an intricate method of how they number or measure these things. Just say it's by square area (foot, mile, etc) left to right from the main port/dock.
Also Google Lagrange Points and L5 Society –IT'S AWESOME
