Let's make it an even 2 each. I'd like Easter (Good Friday or Easter Monday) to break up the gap between Presidents' Day and Memorial Day.

Not off for MLK, but mac is, so he is coming to work with me.

Oh, I bet Mac will get a kick out of that, msbelle.

Spoilers below for last night's episode of The Office.

My love for this show grows and grows. I was certain Michael was going to see through Andy, and was a little surprised when he didn't. I was taken aback that it ended where it did, and that Pam or Angela didn't come forward for Dwight, or try to intervene in some way.

Then I started getting suspicious. I wondered how much of everything was a set up -- of Andy, of Karen, and of us. I've seen it floated on LJ that Phyllis *knew* she was spilling the Jim/Pam beans to Karen. I'm starting to come around to that way of thinking. Then I started remembering how I'd been struck by Andy's talking head scenes. He sounded so much like a contestant on Survivor. I wonder what's really going on. I'm probably taking it too far with the Andy business, but I do think it's possible that Phyllis is as big of a Pam/Jim 'shipper as I am, and that she knew exactly what she was doing. Remember, Karen got off on the wrong foot with her, after all.

How many other people get MLK Jr. day off

I do. Of course, I have every day off right now.

Bleagh. I feel very ick right now. And the thought of spending 5 hours of my life for an interview for a job I'm not sure I want is not helping with the ick. I have to keep reminding myself that it's "Practice, practice, practice" with a touch of "It might surprise you" thrown in.

Considering I haven't gone to work all week, I feel ridiculously worn-out.

How many other people get MLK Jr. day off

I do. Emmett does too. Monday is now his Mom's day to have him, but I don't know if she'll be working or not. So he might be with us.

As for weekend plans, I will be working on the book all weekend.

Please to wish JZ some non-fussy baby-ma because I'll be ensconced in cafes, caffeinated and eating scones. And writing.

Guys, I have some sad news.

I think I'm going to die.

Of tired bored hungry Friday cancer.

It's very sad.

I hate job interviews, but quite honestly, I got more comfortable after having gone on a few. (It had been three years since my last interview; skills get rusty.) It's important even if you don't want the job, because it's less pressure to perform, and you get a chance to practice your questions and answers.

I don't have a holiday until Presidents' Day. But I just discovered I still have something like 2.5 weeks vacation. I thought I'd burned through a lot more than that this summer and fall, but guess not. Anyway, we always get 9 holidays a year, so even if the actual observance falls on a weekend, we'll get a friday or monday off.

I'd like a nap, please.

new mac words/phrases:

oh my goodness (from a kid at school)

for me (as opposed to for mac)

I have MLK day off, but not Presidents' day. Or most of the other Monday ones, come to think of it.
