Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I had forgotten about that ad! But it did come back to me after the visual context was set.

I mentioned in a meeting with the new director (announcement is official tomorrow at 8) that I'd been up at 1 in the morning getting something set up that the business user in the meeting wanted to use and he was scandalised. I told him it was S.O.P., but he insisted I was creative now, and that time frame was not working time.

And I also had some good idea BECAUSE I ROCK LIKE THAT.

So, next time I see these guys, I don't report up the same chain to the CIO as they do. WEIRD.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

So are you released from the crazy weekend launch schedule? That would be great.

YES!!!!

Until this all goes up in flames or something.

My nurse advocate reminded me I have a migraine doctor appointment next week. My mother is right--I can't cope alone. If either he hadn't written a script for 2 weeks instead of four or I didn't have her to call, I'd be very surprised when they autocalled me too late to ask for time off.

Okay, off home. My no-longer-manager said it was time.

Yay!

As for the coping, maybe there's a calendar app out there that can ping you a week or so before you have an appointment or need a scrip refilled? I need to set mine up to ping me when I need to refill my Rxs as I always wait until the last minute and then need to go without meds for a day or two.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Burrell,

I do that with google calendar. You can set alarms by event and as many reminders (and when) as you need to. For some, I have 2 days, 1 day, and 10 min prior.

I have my phone ping me as well, but I'm just now realizing I need to set it to remind me of things like bills, Rxs, etc.
