Being good at your work only gets you more work.

I'm currently experiencing a downswing in confidence that I know what I'm doing. And I get to evaluate my performance!

I should get on the treadmill or meditate or something before I try to destroy the Earth. I know it's where I keep my stuff you guys, but I've been trying to declutter...

I need to make peace with the fact that running around unfucking things for other people is literally a thankless job.

And the reward for a job well done is another job.

Happy birthday, tommy!

I'm in the last-minute scramble to finish up a thing I took over for my coworker when she was on jury duty and now is on vacation. The problem is, I never really felt like I was picking it up, and now there are a million stupid little things I have to do. Bleh.

Happy birthday, tommyrot!

happy tommyrot day!

Thanks for all the birthday wishes, everyone!

For lunch I ordered a strawberry shake to celebrate.

Holy crap! I actually have an offer letter. Of course, it says it's contingent, although I'm not clear on what it's contingent on, since they have the contract award.

But hey, an actual offer letter. Whoot.

Yay!

Hooray!

Yay!

I finished my stupid thing, even though I lost the ability to brain about an hour ago, so I couldn't really take any of my boss's feedback into account.

Oh! I was going to sit here and wait for the bus, but really I should walk. Light out, warm, comfortable shoes = yes.
