It's disturbing... today I think I actually feel 'perky'.

I've gone feral at work. Like, there's the established routine for the position, and I've wandered away from the trail to start my own society without rules. I'm not keeping it at all secret, record low figures continue to drop, and occasionally the boss wanders by and gives me two thumbs up.

My brain stopped this afternoon, so I went out to get a coffee. The goods lift dinged and in I get. The goods lift is still being odd, takes a couple of minutes for the doors to close. It's the only lift where the door close button ever seems to work - but not when it's moody. halfway down it stops for someone else (who I don't think is 'one of us', we share that floor). As we stand there I decide to make small talk about the lift being moody. I don't know how I got there, it was possibly random, but I end up explaining to the guy that I used to work on the 35th floor in a different building, and sometimes the lift just stopped. Then I explained how people freak right out if you jump up and down in that situation.

Then we chatted on the way down and out about falling to our deaths, and how far you'd need to fall for it to kill you. Strangely, it was a very cheerful chat.

Since Wednesday I have been tired. People have observed me as I try to get to the ground floor by pressing '4' over and over. And as I try to summon lifts with my access card instead of the button. Or - try to get in by waving my access card in front of the lift button. Also I have been doing things like having 'desk at my lunch'. A branch explained I need a hobby, and refused to agree when I asked (in a strange and desperate tone) whether drinking might count.

Oh - also. Someone was reminding someone that we aren't supposed to drink at lunch because we're clocked on. I said *I'm* allowed because I'm an hourly hire so lunch time I clock off. I got thoughtful frowns and 'hmm's, and no confirmation. I'm right though. Didn't mention that technically I would also have to sober up before clocking back on.
