Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Yay Sara!
Blah. One of my work friends invited me to a crafting night tonight, and I was really looking forward to it, but I'm achy, and I've got a lot of stuff to do in the next few days, and I know that I'll run out of spoons for things that I have to do if I go out tonight. So, I had to cancel. Stupid body.

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
WAHOO SARA! This is the best news of my week.
Lisa, I am in for celebratory shenanigans (if I'm invited that is), as long as they don't happen April 18-21st. I will be in Austin for work.
Brenda, bacon or pancetta would also work well in that. Hell, even prosciutto, crisped in a frying pan and then added to the pasta would also be yummy.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Yay, sarameg! That's fantastic!
I have to be on a plane in less than 12 hours. Guess I better pack.

I have to figure out my schedule, because for other reasons, work is a cluster right now and I pretty much come home braindead. Also, holes in my walls.

Ok, got all the right numbers, including current base and company retirement contributions:14% more on base, a whopping 21% including the retirement contributions. And the insurance is going down quite a chunk. Jesus. I wouldn't be making that at current employer 5 years from now, the way things are going there.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Woo, sarameg!
You know how on Friday I was thinking I would have to fire someone? He gave his notice today. Problem solved.

And I will have separate vacation and sick leave again! Starting at 1.5 times the leave I have now, and after the first year, the sick increases and rolls over. Hell, vacation alone is more than my PTO. And I'll be getting a check for my current unused vacation, which is almost a month's salary.
Dancing on the ashes of my soon to be former employer. Well, after I turn in the signed offer.
