Where do you come from? Where do you go? What is your scene, baby? We just gotta know.

Already up and gone. It's quiet at work this morning.

Teacher work day. I have only half the lights in my room on, and brought my laptop, so I can watch Season 2 Leverage while grading finals.

1/2 the staff "had to be out of town" today, so I am hoping to be able to leave at around 3 o clock.

sara, are you traveling today? Safe travels to you!

Ugh, Erin, that blows! I left early on Friday when we had a minimum day because I just did not want.

A coworker had a daughter yesterday.

I've started Grace's breathing treatments.

Burrell, we should either have you over or meet somewhere for a playdate since we're all rained in.

my old boss at work wants to talk to me about "year-end", but won't do it via email. I can only think of 2 things that may be 1) he wants me to work more than the 1 hour/day I have scheduled for next week or 2) he had put me in for a bonus and is still giving me some of it even though I was only an employee half the year.

Really cannot imagine #2 happening. Do not want #1 as I will be visiting family. Maybe he just want to talk about how we manage my final departure from the bank, like sending back my BBerry and such.

I hope so too, or a re-thinking of making me stop working, or a request for highly paid work on the side for his non-work work (trying to start his own company).

We migrated to a new calendar system over the weekend. This morning there is nothing in my calendar, at all. Luckily I planned for this eventuality. But I really didn't want to have to spend my Monday morning making the new system work.

Eh, Kat, I don't really mind being here some of the day, as I have a ton of papers to grade, and I'll focus better here.

However...I have ZERO desire to be here till 4!! And I honestly don't think it'll be a big deal if I skip out earlier, esp. when I tell them my stepson's flight gets in and my sister is watching us till we get off work.

In fact, I think I might go tell someone now.
