Not bored.

So very not bored with life right now.
Along with the house and move stuff, and getting back from three weeks of pretty heavy traveling, and getting a new temporary cat or two this weekend, I also desperately need to get the Escort Schedule for June done, I've got a new involvement going on, and we've got two rounds of couchsurfers in the next three weeks (this is _after_ having turned several others down, due to general chaos level). At work I've got several projects waiting on my plate that need to be done this week. I'm escorting on Saturday, and have meetings/plans most evenings this week. I have, however, set up an appt with my counselor to catch up. Seems a good general plan, given the level of crazy right now.
On the positive side, two days recuperation from a trip is really nice and perfect (or would be, if I weren't an insomniac moron). One day to recover, one to catch up. I'm all up to date on relevant house-related calls, I cleaned house (all through the night Monday, because I'm an obsessive idiot like that), and I'm feeling pretty good about all of it.
Incidentally, Terminator Salvation was fun and full of whiz-bang and also giant gaping plot holes. It also got so I couldn't remember whether I was watching part of the Terminator series or part of the Matrix trilogy (I found the hydrobots to be too similar in design to Matrix designs, particularly).
And Freaks of Nature: What Anomalies Tell Us About Development and Evolution was really awesome and fascinating, except for a brief divergence into absolutely insulting, inaccurate, and clueless discussion of transsexuality that seemed based entirely on much-debunked and criticized work. That gave me a sour taste, but the rest of the book is well worth reading for its critique of our currently imbalanced approach to understand the interaction between genes and environment, and the author's approach to intersexuality is refreshing, considering how badly he screwed up on trans issues.
