Well, here's a fun turn-up. I just got my W-2 and found I made quite a lot less than I thought I was making last year.
Mind you, month-to-month it seemed okay, and it did cover my needs and pay off my credit cards, but... gosh, I have to start paying attention to these things. Especially since I think we're going to have a step freeze next year. Yay!
ETA: Never mind. It's actually the right amount -- I just forgot how much lower the salary scale is here than in San Francisco. C'est la vie.
Isn't the post office closed today?
The stuff I have is going UPS or is already postage-paid, so I can stick it in the outgoing mail at the UPS place and it will go out tomorrow.
Thanks for the reminder, though!
Hey, it's Blue Monday!

I must admit, I was tempted to call in "sick" rather than deal with all this slush and ice.
It's certainly depressing to me. Asked to give me three things he learned from the class presentations, a student has managed to give me PART of the subject of his OWN presentation. Along the lines of "It goes from here to... someplace."
Hey, there are some
Leverage
fans here right? I've skimmed conversation about it in the last few weeks if I'm not mistaken. So, I taped a couple of eps and watched them with my boyfriend this weekend and we weren't really impressed. The eps were the one about
rescuing the boy from Bosnia or Serbia, I can't remember which, by pretending to shoot a movie
and the one
where the infiltrate the mob wedding.
Are those particularly weak episodes? Also, we were wondering if how they got together was explained in the pilot. I was so disappointed because I love the cast.
Oh, lisah, I'm sorry you don't love it! It's very much Ocean's Eleven meets Robin Hood to me, and I adore the cast.
They get together in the pilot, yes -- Timothy Hutton's character recruits them for one job, which goes a little differently than planned, and then they decide to keep working together.
Cashmere, did you get the new issue of Blue Monday?

It was explained in the pilot. I don't think those were the strongest eps, but if they really didn't do it for you, this might not be the show for you.
Timelies all!
It's snowing here. I have a purring cat in my lap. If I didn't need to get lunch in a bit I wouldn't leave the house today.(Well, I had a doctor's appointment this morning, and ran some errands after, but I'm done with that)
