Oh, criminy, my self-evaluation was due today, and I totally forgot. Doesn't everyone hate doing those? Why don't they just stop making us? "Here's my honest evaluation of my job performance. I am excellent. That is all."
Yeah, I spent three hours on mine today, mostly because I want to try and pre-empt whatever sh*t my boss is going to find this year to mark me down for. It really makes for interesting reading. My favorite is the euphemisms I came up with for my cow-orker copying my work.
Of course, what my boss doesn't know is how much I've been working behind the scenes to shore up my position in the office (including talking to production about moving to project mgmt and learning that they know exactly who has been keeping my group above water), and that it will be hard for her to get away with her standard arguments.
Those spice dealies are very cool, Kat. Thanks for the link.
I post all my minutiae here.
No one I follow on Twitter uses it for minutiae. It gets a bad rap for that, but I get less minutiae on Twitter than I do any other forum I frequent.
Twitter has become the primary way I communicate with a couple of my friends.
Every time I try and get the other side of a Twitter conversation, the person I haven't been following is one of those 20-an-hour this-is-my-sandwich updaters. So I know they're out there, and they're talking with people I find interesting or amusing. But the few people I read don't update much.
I post minutiae here, on twitter, on livejournal, everywhere I go. I'm all about minutiae.
Minutiae is all I've got. If there was some smaller even more mundane unit of discourse, that would probably be where I'm at on profound days.
Oh my god. Enver Gjokaj is brilliant.
I KNOW! I will miss his antics.
I just outed myself as a gay-friendly on Facebook. Most of my extended family (those I saw on Thanksgiving in the "Inland Empire") are probably too polite to comment on my link to Senator Savino's great speech, but someone might. At best, they'll be praying for me in church on Sunday.
Just read that a freeway traffic sign I'd driven under many times was put up by a civilian and CalTrans left it up for over nine years, because apparently people
did
need to know which way to go to get to the 5 freeway from downtown. Now it's gone...they've put up a whole new sign, but they've included the guerrilla information this time.
I'd have to be caught having gay sex, in public, a number of times, for me to be able to cause a same-sex kerfuffle in my family. When they say it's 10% of the population--if you're not related to any gay people it's because I'm related to all of them. All the black female ones, anyway, and at least one of the males.
Which reminds me, I'm not sure if I ever told meara that the cousin I wanted to set her up with is a man now. If that's a problem, I have others, but the most butch of them is unstable and evil (she once broke up with a guy who was in the ICU after a suicide attempt over him. she later married him and then left him months after the lavish wedding. she also kicked her grandmother down a flight of stairs). But I can find others. Her little sister is kinda butch and quite cute.
