Not yet, right? Thanks, Hecubus...thanks all for the good wishes. Failing Paulie Walnuts, Melissa Leo's attorney character has a great "You are kidding me with this," expression and I wish I could have her with me.

I've been onerous tasking at work all week. I did open enrollment this morning, but I may need to tweak my FSA contribution. I made a dentist appointment for Monday. Making an eye appointment now.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OMFG, I need one thing from one person, and it's not clear where he is! He might be in the meeting my boss was just headed to, so I gave her a message for if she sees him. Otherwise, I'm just sitting here waiting for the phone to ring. I tried not being here, but that didn't work either. Hoping posting works!

Ah ha ha ha! His assistant called literally as I was hitting "Post message."

Trust my rage
My onerous task today is the court mandated parenting class I am currently sitting through. There are many reasons I shouldn't be here (went already, Sammy is young, there's no real conflict wrt custody) but I get that everyone has to go. But the class is miserable. All these videos of crying kids talking about their parents fighting. I'm doing my best to tune it out since it totally depressed me the last time.

Non-onerous task! Meeting a 250 lb dog at the park. Unless it was a pony. It might have been a pony.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
2:35 and our offices are more than half empty. Ridiculous.

Woe is me. My onerous task is to figure out how to spend the last 24 hours in Cairns.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I have also sorted out my Open Enrollment! And assorted other overdue tasks. And started making soup, which isn't really onerous except that it makes me hungry all day to smell it cooking.
Oh, crap, missed a bill, not done with that task yet...

What kind of dog weighs 250 pounds?!?
I am just trying to get regular work done, as I have been all week. Hoping to finish up today with some training stuff and prep for next week's travel, and if my boss gets back to me, revising a report. But mostly looking forward to the weekend.
I think most of my overdue/onerous tasks at the moment are not going to be tackled today--I want to refi my house, and hire someone to garden/landscape/bomb and destroy my yard. But am not even sure where to start on either of those (and on the latter, not sure how much I'm willing to spend)
