I was finally early for work, for the first time at this new job, thanks to a combination of oversleeping (so didn't wash hair) and not having any food in the house (so had breakfast on the train/in the office). Of course, I got here and there was no internet all morning. It did mean that I got some Actual Work done, but still!
Natter 36: But We Digress...
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.
The storm isn't looking too bad so far, Dana. There may be up to 6" of rain, but that's the worst case scenario I've heard.
Good news. I won't worry too much about my grandparents, then. Or you.
t not really here
there was no internet all morning.
You too, Jesse? Ours just came back an hour ago.
sarameg, I hope it all works out for you.
Nilly! I have a picture to email you tonight when I get home. It's the one you asked for last century. I guess you'll just have to come back and kick my butt. (Hey, if it gets you in the U.S. again, I'll take it).
t /not really here
Come back, people!
I didn't know Natter could be killed by people who aren't even here. I promise I'll stay gone....
I was off pretending like I was back to work after lunch....
Come back, people!
Hey Maria! Emmett's loving Tournament baseball. Emmett's parents are less enamored about driving to the burbs every weekend. But he's playing so many more games he's developing at a very rapid pace.
For instance, they've got him playing SS and 2B a lot on the Tournament team which he didn't do much in Double-A (he pitched and caught mostly, so that took up his allotted infield time). So his fielding has gotten much, much better. To the point where he made a play last weekend that caused his coach to go "Whoa!"
I was just testing out a site, trying to break stuff and find problems. I love that part.
OH! lunch. I should do that.
I've been catching up on the last three weeks of Movies. It's terribly absorbing. I should really stop and eat lunch.
pretending like I was back to work after lunch....
I haven't even had lunch, yet I was doing the same thing.
David, that is just fabulous! I know the travel is a pain, but it's worth it in the end. You can't beat the player development, and it sounds like Emmett's already reaping the benefits.
Did you remember to sign up for the hotel frequent guest programs? DF and I have accumulated enough points (just from hockey trips) with several different hotel chains to cover a weekend getaway.
OH! lunch. I should do that.
Me too. And felicitations on the new job!
I am in the office all week. It's the first time since the middle of May that's happened. No more travel for at least a month, barring any unexpected crises. Woo hoo. (I'd put an exclamation point on that but I'm too tired. Entropy sounds wonderful right now.)
