at work at new job. Temp office is next to one of the voice lesson rooms, and you can hear it perfectly. Oy. BUT! They are getting me a laptop! Sweet!! Looks like it will be a Mac with dual boot.
Fay, I fell asleep watching BBC World News. They were doing a spot on the excitement happening in your area. I was watching, not sure if I wanted to see you (proof of life!) but then realize you are in danger zone. So happy to see your pixels.
Pix, I got my fingers and toes crossed for you.
Um. Should I be laughing at the safety training videos? I think that's a bad sign.
Yay for Mac laptop, Omnis!
In meme new, I am in excruciating pain. I moved my neck weirdly while sitting at my desk and pinched something, and now I can barely turn my head. I've taken three Motrin and it hasn't touched the pain. I wish I could leave right now, but I'm supposed to sub last period and I'm supposed to turn in my contract at 2:30 if I haven't gotten a call from the other school by then, so I'm kind of stuck. But OMG the pain.
ETA: Worked it out with admin. Leaving now. Can't make it the rest of the day.
Today, my advisor was supposed to watch me practice the talk that I'm going to give at the campus interview, and also discuss some questions I had about my dissertation. He never showed up.
Who just spent $100 on orange patent leather shoes? Oh right, that would be me. But they're so preeety. [link] Now I have to find something to wear them with.
Hil, I have run out of uncomplimentary things to say about your advisor. I can't wait until he is but a finite series of ridiculous stories that fade over time.
That shoe site is dangerous, brenda. And I totally love those shoes in teal, predictably.
Let's see, I have 25 minutes to do my bulleted list of accomplishments for the year or I have to take it home. Yeah. That's not happening. Oh, performance self-evaluations, you suck so freaking bad. I reckon I'll just spend the next 20 minutes making sure I have all the documents I need on my thumb drive.
I was particularly annoyed at him not showing up because he'd told me to reserve the seminar room, and I reserved the room and set up the projector and everything, and then just sat around waiting. If there had been some other people to present to, I would have, but most of the other grad students went to Six Flags today, so the only one around was one of my officemates, who had to leave before I would have finished anyway. New plan is gathering some grad students to present to sometime next week, so that I'll have some practice in front of a group.

Beware the chickens!

Was it a violent and bloody chicken coup?
