My real onerous task is the meeting I have tomorrow with my boss and my boss boss about this stupid document I'm working on. There's nothing like stirring the pot by adding a line to a document to make a policy decision that really should be made several pay grades above mine. Oh well, I do as instructed.
That's my girl, large and in-charge. Okay, teensy-weensy and in charge.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Shockingly, I seem to have completed all of my onerous tasks for the day. Can I go home now?

wow onerous tasking went really fast, so I brought in the laundry to fold, and partially re-loaded the washer, and put out a couple of more Christmas decorations, AND then I straightened up mac's bathroom because we have a kid coming for a playdate today and I doubt they play outside.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The tough meeting wasn't that tough, but I still need my ESP evaluated by boss, and to talk to him about working from home. Not looking forward.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Ancient History Quiz (no googling)
I got all of them right (a hundred years off on the first) because I do watch a hell of a lot of History International.
I still want to read that book though. I started it at Powell's but I hadn't earned buying a new book through my "read two books you already own, buy a new book" program.
