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.

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.

YES!!!!

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.

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.

have you all seen thugkitchen.com? It makes me laugh out loud, no lie.

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.

Holy shit, that is awesome.

Thug Kitchen is amazing...but I will only drink them. This [link] doesn't apply to me, but I love it nonetheless.

I am irrationally annoyed at the two dings to my credit (proportion of balance to credit limits too high, amount owed on revolving accounts too high) because MOTHERFUCKERS THEY GET PAID IN FULL EVERY MONTH, I NEVER PAY INTEREST OR PENALTY. I roll other bills onto them to get points and $ to my principle on the mortgage. And the past couple of months? Every.goddamn.semi-annual-bill came due. It always does. So the balances ping a little higher, for like 5 minutes.

This is a petty gripe because my credit score is more than fine and I should just shut up and be grateful. But I always hated getting just shy of 100% in grades, too.

It also doesn't help my paranoia, too many balls in the air, I keep checking all my accounts obsessively to make sure I haven't dropped something.
