Oddly, my bff who is an attorney and has a RULE about lawyer shows (she generally just says no) - enjoys Suits. It's the relationship between the two guys that does it.

Thanks, Calli! He's pretty fabulous, I gotta say.

Well, after getting jack all done yesterday, today is shaping up to be more productive.

The bummer is that the SO has caught one of the kids' colds, so he's probably going to be out of commission for the upcoming week. Which pretty much sucks, seeing as we haven't had a normal week in forever. But he covered my tail a bunch, so it's time for me to cover his, I guess.

Shit, I can't claim K-Bug anymore. I knew that but forgot when I did a first run through my taxes. No new washer/dryer for me. At least not as soon as I'd like.

All it takes for my day's plans to be scattered to the bitter cold wind is one human who's "coming by in an hour or so". So I didn't go for a walk because I didn't want to be gone when she got here, and I didn't start painting because I didn't want to be in the middle of it when she got here. And now I'm doing nothing, just waiting for someone who wants me to do her a favor.

My brain doesn't switch gears easily. It's hard for me to do a thing while anticipating an interruption.

One of the team members has disappeared. I don't know if I'm supposed to ask about it, or what. She told me about an error message that was appearing, and I said I'd have to go to our manager with it for a decision on how to handle it, because it would affect our budget, and she sent me a huffy email that ended with "Well, it's not my project!" and then ditched the next (important) meeting and hasn't replied to any emails that have been directed to her.

Previously she wasn't working the project this weekend, but then she became available. Plus she disappeared during the work day on Friday,, not after hours if she was still not working the OT project.

She's ridiculously unprofessional--the one my boss calls incompetent, but my manager is very defensive of her, so I'm hesitant to even ask. But she can't possibly be this petty, can she? Mad at me because I'm escalating an issue she found? I'm not burying it, I'm bringing it into the light. And since she only found it, not caused it--if there's a hero in the story, it's her.

Some days (Monday->Friday, some weekends) I don't understand people.

I made it out of the house for a walk!

Which somehow turned into brunch at the nearby Mexican hole in the wall,but at least I walked here.

I need to start thinking about my taxes, but I still don't have my W2, so it may not happen soon.

Migraine. Can't sleep. Too bright. Not happy.

god, so busy. Dealing with my folks' condo, gotta get stuff signed tomorrow, then meet old friends for lunch and then go to this memorial which is to be followed by a gathering somewhere. Today I have people coming over to binge on Community, then dinner in the city with another old friend.

Somewhere in there I have to pack to go to Puget Sound for three days on Monday. ARgh.

And my phone just pinged--I have to go pick someone up at BART...

Consuela, did the condo sell?

I'm watching Charlie Brown Christmas at the request of my children. Really though I want a nap.
