Easter egg included a little scroll that says "Fiskur tekur beitu en ongull fisk" (there's an umlaut over the o in ongull. I don't know how to make umlauts happen) which Google tells me means "fish takes the bait while fishing hook fish" which is nearly as cryptic. I am pretty sure I did not win the free flight.

Also something like chocolate covered chewing gum, but more dissolvy. Maybe some kind of nougat? Almost like a taffy?

Interesting, anyway.

Peeing in public is illegal in the US*, but since all I really saw was a man standing in the bushes with his back to me, TPTB decided against it, or rather, that they'd give this guy a warning. But I think now, after having met with his insolence, or rather, if my boss had personal preexisting experience of these men, he wouldn't have been so generous in 1) giving the guy the benefit of the doubt (which the guy didn't try to deny, excuse, or pretend to apologetic about or that it was an emergency and would have messed himself if he hadn't taken action), and 2) giving him a pass with a warning that this shain't happen again.

*and in some places can force you to register as a sexual offender. So, yeah, it was handled too genteelly, and I understand why, as it was by someone new who hadn't witnessed it himself.

If I'd had the balls, I would have asked him to vacate the premises or I would call the cops right then. I don't know what the right choice would be in walking the line of not pissing off our visitors, and getting potential negative repercussions in some way, and just allowing ourselves to be pissed on.

I'm trying to order a computer, but I'm getting sent to a broken URL when I try to purchase. Does your website not work in Chrome, business? Are you joking me right now?

No redundancy or training for coverage is HORRIBLE BUSINESS PRACTICE.

You mean like having only one documentation person for an enterprise-level product, covering all of writing, editing, and production?

People who have been diagnoses with anemia: did you notice a quick, dramatic change in your well-being after you started taking iron supplements? I don't know if it's the iron pills, the relief of having the eye surgery over and joy at how well it worked, or spring that is the cause of me feeling physically quite good. I'm not used to it. I'm chatty with the people I'm willing to talk to. I'm nearly giddy.

This is going to turn out to be one of those things where feeling "normal" is so new that it's ridiculous, isn't it.

W-E-E-K-E-N-D

I was trying to save my easter egg for easter. I gave away or ate all of the other chocolate I brought home though, so I am not sure that will happen.

For security purposes, we are not supposed to look at personal email on our work computers--almost all of them are blocked. We can still look at personal email at work, but it has to be on a mobile device, which means sometimes I don't check gmail during the day.

A few hours ago my boss sent me something she wanted me to do fairly quickly, but sent it to my gmail account.

It didn't get done quickly.

Timelies all!

Daffodils are also starting to bloom here.

I was guessing that the Easter Egg wouldn't be kosher for Passover, so today seemed like a good day to eat it. No regrets. Keeping the little bird at work. The candy sampler I got for the department is largely untouched, oddly enough, and I still have two Omnomnom bars and one Dutch (I think?) chocolate bar that I got for myself to nostalgically nibble on.

Oh, boss of Lee. SMH

I forgot to bring home the lunch I didn't eat. Maybe it will still be in the freezer on Monday. Meanwhile, I think it is just about time to go to Trader Joe's and browse for therapeutic foodstuffs.

Get the white cheddar bacon popcorn! (Or don't, if you don't want to nom the whole bag.) The weirdest thing about it is that it's not actually made with bacon, just flavorings. So I guess it's good for vegetarians. But -- SO GOOD.
