TGIF except I have to go into work tomorrow for a while. There's just so much to do that I want to try to make Monday easier on myself and get caught up a bit. That's crappy to have to work on the weekend, but I can use the $$.
Today didn't suck. I had a really strange and deep conversation with one of my co-wkers after work today. I have no idea why I opened up to him the way that I did. I mean, I was REALLY honest for the first time in a long time. It is a completely platonic thing, so there's no let's-get-to-know-each-other pre-sexual thing going on. He's kind of like the little brother I never had. It was very,very weird and now I don't know about how I feel about letting him see a glimpse of who I really am. Bizarre.
Thanks for the comments on my poem. I will post another one and you all can tell me to stop if you hate them. I'm just trying something new on my journal. No one at work (who I've worked with for 7 years or so) has ever even asked to read one. Big clue for me about how they view our so-called friendships there. So, I thought I'd put them here and share a bit of myself. Hope no one minds. All critiques are welcome.

"Pieces"
Bitter without sweet
European chocolate heart
Harness this
and I'd be so strong
Who needs drugs
when I have this mind
Thoughts bend me
suck me down a sharp whirlpool
Razors slice my future
Inside I shrink
Outside I grow
ugly

Brian, you shatter me. Fate is my friend again. Goodnight, sweet boy.

Opening up to folks is alwya s scary but generally wothwhile in my experience. Few of them every really understand what I am telling them but most of them try their best to be supportive and listen.
I found your poem very sad but well done.
