Cold icy nights out on the mountains and the sudden, gunshot crack of a tree exploding.
That's cool. Would scare the piss outta me, though.
Grace continues to be awesome. That OT, not so much. How do some people make it through so much training and testing and still remain clueless incompetent assholes?
Kathy, it's great to hear your success stories! Including the pants-falling-off-butt success stories.
That is an awesome reason to have to buy new clothes, Kathy.
Aurelia, it looks like, yes, IL and around StL are icy and rainy, but mostly west of StL, it is ok.
Here's hoping I can get to StL before the ice starts! I'd really rather not have to stop anywhere since I'll have the cats with me.
OMG I'm so tired. Up until 2:30 on a project last night, and I actually have to get to the office on time today to do an interview first thing. (So, not just in the office but dressed well and able to speak coherently and think critically.) I'm not sure I'm up to the challenge. I've easily put in more than 30 hours already this week, just counting from Monday.
OTOH, today Project Burn PTO resumes. Leaving early for a massage. Working half day tomorrow (and that wouldn't even happen if not for another couple of interviews). Off Friday. In the office next week, though I might take a day on Monday too, since the person I had all day meetings scheduled with apparently just got let go. Then off from noon Thursday through the end of the year.
I don't know how you chronic insomnia people do it. I've had two nights of crap sleep and I am going to die, I swear.
And, my hot water's out. FML.
Kathy - excellent news on your progress. Glad you're able to get out a bit. But be careful - it's pretty darn icy out there. (Well, it is around me -the sidewalks and parking lots are treacherous.)
Safe travel ~ma, aurelia!
I've ended up with an 8x10 rug that I don't want. What the frick do I do with this thing? It's draped over my office, I think I can roll it up but I'm not sure I can lift it.
