I'm waiting for my "3 pm" meeting to call, so am afraid to start doing anything or go to the bathroom. It's really an issue! I wish the assistant would just reschedule...
Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The call was finally rescheduled, so that's good -- and now it's basically time to go! Hooray!

Holy cats I got two calls this afternoon wanting answers to complicated questions by Tuesday (Monday is a holiday here). I was all alone in the office. I swear my clients wait until Friday at 3, then they pick up the phone.

wrod.
Then there's the ones who say "Screw it, it's Friday, I"m out of here," then swamp the place Monday morning.

Because I am nothing if not obsessed, I emailed the people at elfster asking why I could no longer see my history.
I want to have more people in the exchange this year THAN EVER BEFORE (echo echo echo).
There might be shenanigans afoot.

Oh, so they were calling references today. Now I'm scared, partly because I'm just at the beginning of two big projects and I would feel bad about leaving them (and their opportunities for success). But I think I want the job!

For the first time since mid May, the workload has been light enough to actually give the tech support the hour lunch we're supposed to have. I'll miss the overtime, but damn, it's good to have a large chunk of time to sit at peace.
The only downside to a lighter workload is that it gives me time for my brain to slip out of work mode, and I resent the next call even more for taking me out of rest mode.
But I'll manage. Things should be quieter for the next couple of months.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Didn't sleep well last night.(stupid congestion) Heading to Philcon tonight. (I have to pick Gary up at BWI around 9, then we head to the con.) At least I have Monday off.
