Things that are not awesome:

-- People riding motorcycles who both insist on not wearing a helmet and not turning on their headlight at night. Great job, moron. I was half-tempted to stop suddenly in front of the shopping center where the cops hang out just to see how fucked you'd be after the accident.

-- Apparently being the only person in Northeastern Pennsylvania who knows that those dotted lines and gigantic STOPs painted on the grocery store parking lot mean something.

-- Having to explain twice in one night that sudoku doesn't involve math, has never involved math, will not suddenly decide to require math skills if you start attempting to do a puzzle, and is entirely a LOGIC puzzle. Seriously, annoying people at work. It could be numbers, letters, symbols, or different kinds of cheese in those boxes and it would STILL involve no math.

-- Working with someone who isn't really a mean sexist bigot but thinks it's hilaaaarious to act like one.

-- Forgetting your cell phone is in your purse and having to turn it into the bosses AGAIN. *sigh*

Things that are awesome:

-- Fifty bucks suddenly showing up in my mailbox from relatives for Christmas. ohthankgod

-- Getting the adorable non-cursing girl at work to read slash. Specifically, slash with handjobs and rimming. And having her request I bring in more tomorrow. Heeeee. Okay, you asked for it. *snickers*

it took me a really long time to wrap my head around it not actually involving math, because, really, I see numbers and I want to make them either *do* or *mean* something.

Sad, really. I can't just leave the little numbers alone.

Heh. I like going to Jigsawdoku and changing it from numbers to symbols or letters. I love sudoku but I'm not a big fan of numbers, either, and symbols make it harder because you can't remember what to put where because of numerical or alphabetical order.

You do gradually get used to the symbols, though. It never becomes quite as easy as numbers, but very close, because the symbols eventually ingrain themselves in your brain. To really make it difficult, they'd have to have a large set of symbols, with nine chosen at random each game. But maybe that's too evil.

You know, I had finally gotten over my sushi sudoku addiction, and then you went and mentioned jigsaw sudoku. Curses!
