Had a problem with an incident from this morning clinging to me like a limpet until the obsession half drove me mad.  Impossible to concentrate on my work.  It submerged as soon as it occurred and lurked there all through the day until I was finally alone and setting down to work.  I lost a good forty-five minutes going over and over it and banging my wrist against the keyboard; none of the messengers have been working this week and I just needed some good old-fashioned amateur psychotherapy/venting.  Finally picked up the phone and called my oooold friend J.I.  J.I. is a deeply devout nondenominational Christian, staunch Conservative, and (this has no relation to anything else) Filipino.  We are so diametrically opposed in our personal lives and beliefs it’s a wonder we don’t explode like matter/anti-matter when we touch.  Probably why we get along so well.  Jawed his ear off as he was walking home with a whole lot of junk he probably didn’t want to hear but, tough.  That’s friendship.  If he ever falls far enough off the straight and narrow to need guidance or an ear to rant in, I’ll be returning the favor.  Feeling fairly better; expect to get work done now.
