I actually do feel personally warm toward her, but I can't decide if I hope she's fucking up because she doesn't know better, or gaslighting me. I mean, I would always prefer not to be gaslighted, but I'd also prefer to have a boss who is smarter than I am.
Congratulations to the class of 1999. You all proved more or less adequate.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I am inserting myself into this meeting to HELP YOU. You should not be handling this project. It is totally my job, and you have bigger fish to fry, WHICH YOU SHOULD KNOW BY NOW. You are keeping me out of too many loops, and I don't think it's actually on purpose, but it doesn't actually help any of us.You are quickly approaching the point where you've been here long enough that you should know what's going on.
FWD: MY BOSS TOO. SRSLY.
Of course, I can't get any work done today anyway because all of my technology is still on vacation.
Things not working: printer, email, SAP, FTP.
Things working: Facebook, B.org.
Who am I to argue with the universe's master plan?

Monday morning finds me in the office. Even though I have an "ergo approved" desk set-up, I swear I'm much more comfortable when I'm working from home.
CJ is home sick. He got slammed with sneezes and coughs and a running nose last night. He was asleep on the couch as I got ready for work. I tried to wake him to see how he was doing and the poor noodle was not doing well. I told him to go back to sleep.
Over the weekend I earned some major points with K-Bug's bf. I was able to score a couple of Avalanche (ice hockey) tickets from a guy at work. I gave them to K-Bug and G as G's Christmas gift since I won't see him at Christmas. While he played it very cool with me, K-Bug said he had a BLAST and told his mom that she has stiff competition for best Christmas present this year.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Good job, Suzi!
Fortunately, I only ache a little bit...my right hip, ankle and back all are a bit hurty, but nothing too bad.
Advil, gentle stretching to make sure you can still move and either heat or ice anywhere in distinct pain. Also, ouch, I am sorry.

I'm trying, but this whole "Monday" thing is not working for me. Though I suppose I am glad and grateful I have a job to go back to?
I have a bunch of stuff I SHOULD be working on, but there's some emails that need to be returned before I can work on them, and those are more interesting things. So CLEARLY I'm not doing the long-procrastinated boring-stuff, but instead on buffistas. CLEARLY.

Seems like this may be the bleariest Monday in human history.

Ouch Sue! Ouch Amy!
I need to grade today, many many papers. And one student still hasn't turned in hers, and the semester ends on Friday, at which point her B turns into an F. Oy! I want her to turn in the paper and pass the class, but I have no power to make it happen.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I want to sleep. Finally I want to sleep. I am at work. Doing all sorts of personal stuff. My BevMo loyalty cards are merged into one. I have a list of cyber Monday computers to choose from for my sister, but I'm freaking out and can't remember which brands are good (see Tech). I have a green light for time off. So I need to buy tickets. I have faxed my lien request.
I've even done work.
Sleep!

hip deep in pie
Of course, I left the house without taking anything. I am a little achier, but not by much. I think an epic headache may be brewing, though. I am also very lucky to be off today.

Ugh Sue, I say take something now before the headache hits.
ita ! you have been most productive. Can you nap at work?
And not to be too random, but I came here with a buffista PSA: Groupon has a good coupon for Donor's Choose: $10 for a $50 donation. And I'm pretty sure Kat has a proposal on that site right now.
