My SIL has to work tomorrow. BoD and CEO have decreed. It not punishment, it's actually a vote of confidence in her managing a crisis, but it's her son's bday. And Xmas eve, which is normally a holiday at her level.
Hmm. It's sounds like the finest party I can imagine getting paid to go to.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Thanks for validating my feeling that my job expectations are ridiculous. Sometimes I lose touch with reality.
I find gifts for people in the oddest places. There's a gas station/cafe/shop in eastern VA that was on my route from NJ to my sister's house, and that place supplied most of my gifts one year. Truckstop Christmas.

I remember a mother and daughter buying experimental makeup at Walgreens recently because they had a bunch of stuff on sale for $1.
I am at O'Hare. I got a Torta from Frontera, and now I'm at a bar because my flight doesn't board for another hour. Assuming it leaves on time, which it probably won't.

Aw, bummer for SiL of sarameg
I like the sound of Truckstop Christmas.
Really regretting not bringing lunch. Perhaps another cup of tea.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
No one's going there, huh?
Hee. I did not pee on my coworkers, FTR.
Bought beverages, hung up cards, started cleaning...and then sat down. Oops.

Sounds like something from Trans Siberian Orchestra.

Gold stars for everyone adulting this week!
I'm not sure when we're exchanging presents, so I may need to wrap everything tonight.

I did not pee on my coworkers, FTR.
But they were just as happy as if you did!
Right? That's how metaphors work, right?
