'Potential'
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.
Aaand work is closed (which I discovered at 6:30 as I was walking out the door, just as the snow started.) Bonus, we might not get paid because my contractor is a cheapskate asshole.
So I got the laptop from work. Now to see if it will actually play nice from home. Supposedly, they fixed my VPN. I don't believe them.
Finding out work is closed as you leave the house is still better than finding out when you get there (and face a dubious weather drive home).
I wish I had a job not to go to. Maybe next year I will!
Well, I drove in just as the snow started, got the laptop and headed home. Took me all of 15 minutes. In inside pants now.
I really, really, really want to badmouth my paycheck provider. Especially since they are a significant federal contractor. They should honor the contract they are paid for.
I really, really wish we'd been bought out in the last tsuri.
At least you are home safe, sara.
I am up and pool-bound, but still cold. I did not sleep well last night, which sucks because I had been sleeping really well since September. There is something awful about waking up 4 or 5 times a night.
My University is open today, and I have to assume it is because the Provost can more easily dismiss the complaints of the staff who have to drive in this mess than the administrative mess of rescheduling exams. Bah-humbug. I came in at 6:45 to make sure the library was open on time.
Also, I have to order food today for the library holiday party, and it is stressing me out more than it should, but I never know how much to order.
So, last night, I remembered to put the barrels out for Trash Day, but forgot to put my empty boxes out! Which my mother reminded me of this morning. I don't think too many neighbors saw me out there in my pjs? And how much do I really care about that? Not much.
I always feel like I've accomplished something when I remember to put the trash out the night before.
Putting out trash while wearing PJs is an important rite of Moving In.
About to go forth from the house in search of more cough medicine. Alas, it is necessary, especially after sleeping comfortably all night without, it seems, having moved much, since moving this morning has dislodged all the guck that accumulated. Le sigh.
