Because books.

hivemind - who has read Leadership and Self-Deception? If I am part of a workshop using this, are we going to be given a rock? I need to prepare for how bad it is going to be.

This is why I was so bad at Girl Scouts and camp and stuff. I loathe team-building exercises.

I love all that team-building shit. It's ridiculous, but after theatre school it's so easy for me to BS through it.

Speaking of which, my new boss had one on one meeting with all her new employees today to talk about how things are, what we want out of our jobs, ways we could see our two divisions working together. I blathered on at legnth, but was still super careful not to name names and be very polite. I will leave that to my coworkers who are retiring soon. At one point she did ask where I saw my career going and I had to stifle a laugh, but I didn't say anything about rather be running a pie shop or be a lady of leisure...I know better.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

cosigned.

As it turns out, my mother got a talking-to because she refused to participate in a team-building exercise of some sort. I have to go to another one next week.

You guys, daylight savings is KICKING MY ASS.

If I can just get these two next things accomplished, I might need to take off early. What the hell? Have I become so old that an hour is making me this loopy?

Ann, that's a ferret.

You too?

On the other hand, I get to leave in 20 minutes. On the other other hand, I've been here for more than 9 hours.

It's 70+ degrees in Boston. In March. I hope this isn't indicative of what the summer is going to end up like.

OTOH, it's supposed to be back in the 40s tonight, so it's probably just a freak occurence.

I loathe team building. I love daylight savings, but working at home does make it easier. It also keeps me away from team building.

It's 14C here today. And it's suppose to snow Wednesday/Thursday. I blame the Irish, or the Newfoundlanders. Whoever's responsible for Sheelagh's Brush.

I do like having more light in the summer evenings, but this morning was rough. The light was all ... in the wrong place and at the wrong angle.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I am both extremely tired and extremely hungry. I am not sure DST is to blame, but I might as well.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

My back hurts. And my head. In fact, I'm just generally achy all over. Can I blame that on Daylight Savings?
