Since I bailed out of work at 1:30, i went to TJ's on the way home, and the line was as long as I've ever seen it. Which isn't that bad: they have 8 registers and they move fast, it's a good setup.
And although I went in for juice and soup, I also bought meat and pecans and eggnog and mixed nuts and and and -- and two bottles of sparkling wine I put in the refrigerator, just in case. When did I become a person who keeps multiple bottles of sparkling wine in the refrigerator?
God, I'm so glad to be on vacation for the next ten days.
t flops in exhaustion
Of course, I really ought to go clean my house and wrap presents and walk the dog. Bah, humbug.
Guess who's adorable? DJ is! Y'all are jealous.
I got nothing done today.
Okay, I got a lot of work done, but none of my personal stuff that I hoped to goof off from work to do. Now I need to launder and pack and take out trash and figure out the cat and I don't even know what.
When did I become a person who keeps multiple bottles of sparkling wine in the refrigerator?
Because you're turning into me? And I'm turning into Auntie Mame?
Guess who's adorable? DJ is! Y'all are jealous.
It's true!
Aside from not buying actual food, my trip to TJ's was great -- not crowded, and I saw my friend who works there, and got to go into a staff area! So that was exciting for me....
I have eaten dinner. I have laundry in the dryer. I still need to pack, play Christmas present Tetris in my luggage, and write like the wind and JESUS CHRIST IT'S A LION GET IN THE CAR.
Dear God, I'm beat. I've been working like a dog, or possibly four or five, since the second I walked into the office this morning, and didn't stop until 5:10 PM, due to my soon-to-be-ex-boss going into a high-grade panic over my impending departure. I'm loaded down with urgent projects for tomorrow, plus I have to clean out my desk and move everything to the new desk upstairs, and also take a grim cake break at midday to wish farewell to one of the laid-off people. And the person I'm handing this boss off to is bitter and surly and probably going to quit. Please, please, please let them not try to get me back in there once she's left.
On the upside, after the holidays I'll be up in a little corner office far, far away from the badness. And on the
very
upside, it turns out that Rage Nurse has to go over to the new clinic, halfway across the city, tomorrow afternoon, so I only have FOUR MORE HOURS with her for the entire rest of my life.
I wish I had a fridge full of sparkling wine, because I have a sudden crazy desire to bathe in it.
Yay JZ! Or, Yay Future JZ! Today JZ gets hairpats.
