Dawn ,'Never Leave Me'
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.
Ouch.
Performance review went well. Kind of staggeringly good commentary in my end-of-year, really. And the things I got dinged on were a) small and b) fair cops, so I can't complain. 5% boost in salary and bonus eligibility for next year, which is actually cool given the industry and the economy. And my bonus for this year is actually more than double my "target" (which is actually on the small side since I bargained that away for more salary when I came here).
I have more gold in my mouth than I do gold jewelry. This strikes me as funny. (I don't know if I have any gold jewelry.)
Yay, brenda!
I'm kinda in a bad mood born of disagreeing with the boss. It's my job to make the call and I'm very much a "rip that bandaid off" or "just get it all done at once" and they...aren't. But 3 < 4 days. It just is. So saying that 4 is of less impact just isn't true.

yeah, I called my insurance company to insure the new 'puter ($8/year for $3k in coverage, nice). They told me that I was only covered for jewelry loss for up to $1000, did I need more? Har.
Yay, brenda!
Well, it is the same meeting but it's not always 90 minutes. Today it went on for 2hrs and 40 minutes.
Jaysus.
Actually, I have 60 pairs of earrings, the majority handcrafted, silver and/or semi(semi?) precious stone (mainly garnet, amber, amethyst and turquoise.) The same can be said of most of my necklaces and bracelets, but I have fewer of those. Replacement value easily exceeds $1K.
Which tells me it's another thing I need to check on my rental insurance.
I also have more gold in my mouth than I have in jewelry. I'm pretty sure that goes for silver, too.
I'm having one of those days where I'm certain that everyone thinks I'm dumb.
Ever have those days? I just had that day.
I only buy silver jewelry, as it's much cheaper to replace when I lose track of it. Plus, with so much of my family in scouting I was raised to Be Prepared, and gold rings aren't going to be any use in a werewolf attack.

Lately, I call those days Monday through Sunday.
Imagine how much ass I'd be kicking if I weren't spending four hours a day on the internets! No, seriously. I could be running this place.
Credit where due, y'all - I think we all share some of the props for "best multi-tasker on the team".
