Natter 72: We Were Unprepared for This
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.
Ha, time zones are complicated.
At least I finally figured out how to make my phone show me the correct time. My computer still thinks it's 2am. Which, I mean, it is in Boston....
Ha, I get so used to my phone adjusting automatically that I forget everything doesn't.
I really don't know why my phone couldn't figure out what time it is here -- it was giving me the right weather!
Jesse, your phone had jetlag too.
Mundanely, I bet Jesse's phone had "location services" turned off. Jetlag is a lot more interesting.
Tomorrow I will be in Dallas and will get to see msbelle & Heather! You may all admit to your jealousy, now.
Unfortunately, before tomorrow comes there is today, which includes a faculty meeting with the longest agenda ever.
I am jealous (not of the meeting).
I am mildly aggravated, as I always am after a holiday, that I have to work five days this week. But I've got a half hour Meet & Greet with Buddy Valastro in the middle of today, that should make a nice break.
So, the process to get Energy Assistance is extremely onerous if you have misplaced your social security card because they won't even accept tax forms as verified SS numbers.
Also, NIU HR won't allow even the person whose SS card it is to come in and copy their copy of the card.
HR is consistently annoying. . .so that should have come as no surprise. I wonder if they're afraid that some nefarious entity is blackmailing me into giving them a copy of my SS card for some reason.
