Happy Birthday, Plei!!!
Basically the whole company above my level has been stalling about giving feedback on two books I was scheduled to release to the printer today, with changes coming in days late and nothing finalized. Then they suddenly realized this morning was my last half-day before leaving on vacation and went into an EVERYTHING MUST BE CHANGED! freakout. Ahhh, sending the "I'm heading out the door. Please carbon copy [co-worker] so she can pass changes on to [outside company that is completely unfamiliar with this project and charges three times my hourly rate]. Kisses!" message before shutting down my computer felt like such sweet revenge...

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

It's actually a very tiny Death Star... or maybe a Personal Death Star.

It IS tiny. And cute. And projected to be expensive.
the mom was actually very nice and apologetic, though she said, "I don't know if you're still at school..." Two weeks after school is over, you're wondering if I'm still at school? Seriously? I thought the kids were the only ones who thought teachers live in the school building.
Well they shove us in the cabinetry while the school is closed and wheel us back out after.

Did you know that my company has a video podcast show about women in the tech industry? I didn't. Guess who's being interviewed for it in late July?
My work-life is very odd.

At my Catholic high school, we noticed how the nun/teachers progressed: starting out as teachers, moving into administration, then a few ancient nuns would staff the library before they'd just disappear forever. The joke was that there was some big heavy leather-bound tome in a hidden corner of the library with the husks of old nuns folded inside, like flowers from days gone by.

The property manager returned my call (shocking!) and told me that James (contractor) found the leak and did the repair/replace and is charging the unit back up now.
I'd like to be happy, but at this point, I really can't. And I really don't believe it, either.
This has taken far too much effort and rage on my part.

I am HOPEFUL that it will all work out as it should, sara. A/C is good. Even when it flips the circuit like it did for us last night.
I left at lunch and went to the post office, then whole foods (got bug spray!) and then stopped and had lunch. I have one more 80 minute class, then fini.
