I am "working from home" today, which -- since I'm caught up on my grading heading into finals for once in my life -- means goofing off and running errands. The bad news I woke up to today, though, is that our health insurance costs are going up again (don't get me started), which means the 4.5% raise I was so excited about will essentially be eaten by insurance. Grrr.

I got shortlisted for a job I applied for in Warsaw, Poland. I am flabbergasted. I applied less than a month ago. I have no idea what I am going to do if I get the job.

Go to Poland?
Go Sue! You don't have to decide today.
I just got saddled with a monster task that can only be done manually. At least it's not my fault that it needs to be done, that's some consolation. How much do I wish I had NOT left my phone at home, so I could put on headphones and listen to music or a podcast while I do this damn thing? A lot. And that one is my fault.
Woot!
I want to go see the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. Have a butter beer for me.
Burrell, they're building one here at Universal City! It opens next spring. We'll get to enjoy The Three Broomsticks and butterbeer right in our own backyard!
