Buffy: A Guide, but no water or food. So it leads me to the sacred place and then a week later it leads you to my bleached bones? Giles: Buffy, really. It takes more than a week to bleach bones.

No, I am not going to swap computers and set up the new one with 10 minutes warning at noon on a friday.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Both Word and Excel have pretty good invoice templates. Excel's probably better for hourly work because it will do the calculations for you automatically.

Because books.

Thanks, Jessica.

Our wings are not tired.

I"m having my 4th cup of coffee of the day.

I ended up dropping coffee completely. I may have it again at some point. I was drinking an entire 12 cup pot before leaving the house for the office, then drinking probably a half pot at the office. I blame it on the big mugs.

I stopped drinking it after noon a while ago, but still was managing to consume way too much. I seem to have a moderation issue.

Insano week here. Really need to get things under control. Toooo much to do.

Ugh, copy and paste failure! I hate it when I do that. At least it wasn't anything incriminating, but come on, self. Link checks are for always.

HR does not keep it confidential that I sent that email.

What the hell?!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Ugh msbelle. I'm going out on a limb and saying it's not just transitions that bedevil your company, they don't really do communication well, period. It's got to be maddening.

Wait I'm lost--what email did you send?

I thought it was a little funny that the doctor took my word for it that I'm pretty sure I've been immunized against Hep B, but I also guess my risk is pretty low, especially on this trip. (It's transmitted through bodily fluids....)

Don't do IV drugs or get a back-alley tattoo while there either, Jesse!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And I probably won't be giving any medical treatments.... Honestly, I feel like the thing I'll be at risk for is TB, and nobody's giving me a vaccine for that.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

meara, I sent an email to my HR rep asking if an announcement would be made today. I did not type anyone's name, any position, or even any location.

She wrote back that changes were not finalized and it would be next week, but did I have any specific questions or concerns.

I wrote back, Next week will be fine and then jokingly (I thought obviously) I said I guess I'll report to myself until then.

I don't know that she called my boss directly, but he knows I emailed her about the changes. and he is PISSED.

That's absurd.
