You have to expect a certain amount of meteorological dissonance when celebrating a Middle Eastern religion that co-opted European solstice observances in order to be more appealing to the locals.
Until those European practices meet Middle Eastern people coming the other way (and complaining about Victorian poetical inaccuracies that never made any sense).
I adore you both. That is all.
Training went well - I was observing/acting as backup for an intern. I love doing trainings and presentations but damn, they are tiring. ::staples hand to forehead:: Thankfully, I can go home now.
Oh and I meant to say, I'm so sorry, Nora. I hope you find something better, and soon. I don't suppose your boss gets a 360 review?
Nora, best of luck and ~ma for that coming job interview.
Erm, with all the talk of wisdom teeth extraction here, apparently it's contagious. My dentist decided it is time for me to say goodbye to mine. Simple extractions. So, as I was somewhat in denial during previous conversations, knowing that I'm about 20 years past the intent of the dentist who saw them cut gum saying, "Well, they're ok for now but eventually they will have to come out," is it completely untenable for me to think I can be back to work the next day? I've made my appointment for next Wednesday, which I have off. I do have to work Thursday and Friday, but most of the residents will be with their families for the weekend, so I anticipate a very easy couple of days.
ION, I hate being a mandated reporter.
The next day windsparow? You probably want Thursday off, though surely at this point that'll be hard to get. Maybe just do your job stoned on mess, wheee!
Nora, sorry about the workplace stress. I agree a nice social drink is in order.
WindSparrow, I am notoriously wimpy when it comes to physical discomfort (witness today) but I would give myself a few days to recover from the wisdom teeth if I were you.
The next day windsparow? You probably want Thursday off, though surely at this point that'll be hard to get.
I'll talk to the supervisor I work for on Thurs-Fri - we should be able to work something out in the near future, even if I end up rescheduling my appointment. It's not an emergency, they just need to be done soon-ish - and I was surprised when the scheduling clerk offered me next Wednesay.
ION, I hate being a mandated reporter.
That doesn't sound good.
I remember being pretty exhausted next day, but not otherwise incapacitated.
