I am pretty annoyed that not only do I have to be at work today, I am apparently expected to actually do work.
Me too. My work is challenging today, which I almost always prefer, but today I don't feel like braining.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Me, too. But I'm editing a fairly interesting article, so it's not bad. (Although I slept horribly last night, and if I want to make it to midnight tonight, I need to nap hard later. And I am NOT good at napping. Bleh.)

Exactly where I am.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I am at work, but I came in late because of a PT appointment, and now the rumor is that they may let us go at 3:00.
I still have nothing much to do to fill the time though.

So bored. No one here to send me home early.

I've managed to work at least two hours on every day of my vacation except Christmas (and including today, of course)

My boss is in some meeting about taxes. if he doesn't come back by the time I get back from lunch I'll text him to see if I can go home. Sue, I can ask him if you can go home too if you want.

My boss assigned me this week's articles, which can normally be returned the following Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday (though ideally they want them back as early as possible). But she said "Please start them immediately, because next week is my last week before vacation." And I get what she's saying -- she only has next week to wrap stuff up, but, seriously, your vacation is not my problem. But I want to help out, so I'm doing what I can, even though I have a deadline for my other client, too, which means I'll be working all weekend and then have nothing to do next week. Which would be okay, except for the part where I'd like to enjoy the weekend with my husband.

Shoot, my manager just came by to discuss something else and didn't mention leaving early today, and I didn't think to ask until after she'd walked away.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Strix, I'm sorry. Did I meet Greer? I know I saw Cosmo and Gimlet.
Our office closes at 3 pm today, but I'm off until Monday. Going back to work will be difficult.
