That all just sounds miserable, ita.
Less miserable, my poor minion got the one super crappy gag gift at the work gift exchange. Luckily, she's a pretty pessimistic person, so wasn't altogether surprised to get screwed out of a gift, AND I had left an actual present on her desk for her to get after the lunch. So she felt OK, but I still felt bad for her!
Jesus. I just had someone ask me if I'll make a previously given deadline despite her slipping with the pre-requisite by two weeks. But I guess if you're a project manager who has no issue with admitting you have neither a project plan nor a list of milestones with approximate dates, why would you get the idea of a critical path?
I'm too young, old, and underpaid for this. This is not the week.

Hee! Love the reindeer with the sleigh.
Oh man. ita, that totally sucks. I admire your work ethic, but I still think it's totally unfair.
Noah's arching "I'm very angry" thing is an irritation. It's a super bad habit that the OT is hoping we'll get him to break. One of things that's interesting after yesterday where he was overstimmed, today, he's doing a ton of arching. Which means that I spend time telling him, "No arching" and getting him back drawn in.
Jesse, what was the gag gift?
A light switch. Her initials are LS, which was the shtick for the gifts. I totally lucked out, and got jewelled (candle) holders, along with incredible wrapping paper of other JH things -- a jumbo ham, J. Edgar Hoover, Jerri Hall, a jewelled (sword) hilt, a jew's harp (mouth harp), and one thing I couldn't identify. Hilarious!
I just got an email telling me to consider today worked, so that's something. Now I just have to make it into the office every other day this week. I wonder if I can get my sister to take me to the ER the very night she comes in.
That's not very nice.
God, why have I become so addicted to sliced preserved pears? I crave them so much I'm eating a medley that has pineapple and peaches in it too just to get to them. The other fruits are not nice.
ita, can I get Colin's email so I can beg him for a signed script for my crew fundraiser?
Consider it insent, Allyson.
