SExM, I'm so sorry you have to deal with this bullshit. Moving really is the only option.

Welcome to the early morning shift. I've already done one run to school. Time to wake the second one. Looking forward to Christmas break. Yay for sleeping in!

Welcome to the early morning shift.

::wanders in with coffee:

Start a temp assignment today. I don't need to be up this early but I woke up with the baby's last feeding and couldn't get back to sleep.

We've got to get an xmas tree this week. We've put it off because our house is up to the eyeballs in babystuff and also we're broke, but it doesn't even feel a little bit Christmassy around the house without it. I think we'll get it on Wednesday after JZ collects Emmett

Good morning, David. May the temp assignment have fun coworkers. Did you say this was in the same building as your former job? If so, I hope you have some interesting encounters in the elevator. As in fun for you and uncomfortable for them!

Good luck with your temp job, Hec.

{{{{Maria and family}}}} Much ~ma to you all.

Good luck, Hec!

Ick, SExM. Definitely sounds like moving is the best option. But, ick.

I'm feeling normal today. Thank goodness for that.

Damn, {{Bitches}} Seems like December just has to go out with a bang, gun type instead of pretty fireworks.

Have coffee, not sure I have a brain. Christmas is too darn close and I still have packages to mail and packages to pick up. I hope the post office is open until midnight every night, I'm going to need it.

Yeah, that'll be interesting. My weasley ex-boss left the firm, so I won't run into her. I could possibly run into the evil LA HR director if she's up visiting, though that's unlikely this time of year and she wouldn't be arriving at the building at the same time. Otherwise it'd just be people I knew and got along with. I don't mind running into them, except attorney culture is a more shame-based system so they might feel uncomfortable running into me.

I'll be temping in the accounting department of this place so I expect I'll be doing the most tedious kind of year-end backlog work.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

I went to get my haircut and colored this morning. I was thinking of chopping it a lot, but the one thing I don't like about this hairdresser is that she ALWAYS overbooks, and even though I had a 9:45 appointment, she was already behind. By the time she started the cut, I'd been there for almost 2 hours, and I just couldn't stand being there any more, so I told her just to trim it and then bolted.

Lee, this same thing happened to me! I walked out when it was 15 minutes past my appointment time and she was still totally mid-cut with someone. Bah. No haircut for me.

Sonus, that's horrible. I hope that you guys can get out of there soon and with a minimum of fuss or angst.
