Hahaha! juliana is possessed. The power of Jesus compels you!
Natter 66: Get Your Kicks.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Kat, I'm sorry to hear about Grace's nurse needing a week off. I hope you find a solution that works for you soon.
juliana? You don't sound like you ...
Feh. She was signed in on my computer and didn't notice.
Sorry Juliana!
I had to actually YELL at my supervisor because she went off on a tangent that had nothing to do with the meeting we were having, and gentle redirections were not working. As in "D! There's a time and place for this discussion! THIS IS NOT IT." Loudly.
You are, once again, my hero. I think I could arrange a fundraiser for you to come teach my supervisors how to run a meeting. There are three of us who start trading exasperated looks but we are lowly minions.
Of course at today's meeting it was the client, who we have to listen to even when she's proposing that we develop an app for this survey that would work on smartphones (all of them, obviously) and then the respondent could just transmit this ( HIPAA-protected! ) data to us and surely any 16 year old kid could whip that together. And there was even more that made it stupid but to sum up: GAH.
Strega, this is someone reknown for keeping on topic in meetings. I was aghast at her behavior today. So my reaction was shock, to some degree.
OTOH....
Though I have become a middling minion, I don't have patience for wasted time, especially before noon. So even had I not been running the meeting, I woulda been that one shouting it out.
Luckily, my crew is pretty forgiving. I think. She does do my annual review.
Perkins, I just checked their website. The carrier had delivered it to the wrong sorting facility. It should be there tomorrow (it's in SFs sorting facility now according to tracking info). Do not go into work! And it was your home address, for sure, since I don't know your work address.
Oh good, though BOO UPS.
how are you feeling?
Not too bad. I think the steroids kicked in again, because I am not tired anymore.
not tired is generally good! you've been in my thoughts all day (thursdays right?). And I thought of you because we were at the pediatric procedure unit at UCLA. I wish I had fun reading material to send to you (I'm reading Scott Pilgrim in one big rush and also Invisible Man neither of which are probably your thing).
look! A scary meatloaf hand! [link] I kinda want to make them. I should read Not Martha more.
