Although I'm thinking you might not own a hair dryer ...
You are precisely correct. I just found my hairbrush looking for a syringe with nozzle (the only one I have can do nothing better than just drip the H2O2 in, but not flush--probably safer), and it's a Barbie hairbrush, one of those where the head is the size of your fingertip. It's been 20 years since I needed more.
Anything else? The H2O2 have been 15 minute lie downs while it bubbles, but I've finished the D/C institutionalised duelling fic (go worldbuilding!)--well, as much as has been published. I can't even watch TV that still.
Thanks, Amy!
The warm damp sounds right to me, ita.
We're watching ncis, as one does.
Stephen had a great job interview and is going back for a second, and Sara loved the Friends school where she'll probably go next year (my mom works there). Yay.
Oh, hooray!
I don't think I said, but yesterday the permanent person (who got the first position I interviewed for) started, and to accommodate her they moved me to a different desk, which is fine but mildly unsettling. Just, I overhear different people through the cubicle walls now, i have to turn the other way when I'm coming back from the bathroom, little things like that. But, hey, still employed and I got to spend all day today making charts out of data, which I heartily enjoy.
Once again, my beloved family is blithely feigning ignorance of my actual vacation time. Sigh. Really, it is my parents, who were never good at remembering it while they were still working (they had a lot more leeway,) and in retirement...forget it. I just need to ride the wave of frustration and let.it.go.
I'd like to visit my parents out in NM this summer. It makes sense to pick up the boys en route. HOWEVER. Really, asking the girl with limited leave to burn WHEN YOU ARE FUCKING RETIRED? Be careful about how you pose it. Very careful. Because you know what? Travel day is a day of vacation I burn. You're basically adding another half day. And I don't have retirement funds to let me live comfortably until I'm 110 yet.
Letting.it.go.
Just needed to vent. I love my fam, they just have some blind spots.
Making charts out of data sounds really good.
Do you have the interview tomorrow?
::waves at Sox:: I need to email you.
(Oh, and mom neglected to mention some crucial details. Which I can't accommodate. Sorry, SIL, when I sort of agreed to this, I didn't have those details!)
Do you have the interview tomorrow?
Not me, I have had all my scheduled interviews until further notice. Impatiently waiting on my exam results starts this weekend, though, so I have that to look forward to.
Oh! Well, good luck with the test results!
Hey, sara, did you go to a Friends school growing up?
(Not to try to burn additional leave time or anything, but we may be playing Las Cruces in August on our summer tour. So you totally should come see me if the schedule lines up!)
