Short weeks are only good when the workload is light. If it's crunch time, you still end up doing the same amount of work, just faster.
I drove home during a flash flood tonight, and actually encountered about a foot of standing water on the highway just before a railroad crossing. Much more and I'd have tried to pull over where currents would push my car against trees or a building if they got worse.
Word is we got more than 4 inches of rain in an hour (and still coming down). Meanwhile, the local news storm team website shows 55% humidity.
So many head colds/allergies in my department, and me not being able to blow my nose properly yet.
Yeah, timing can make a difference, if you ever have slow times to take advantage of. Which it seems like Laura does not.
I am excited that when I turn my calendar next week my vacation will be within my three-month view!

If I remember right, humidity often drops when it's actually raining; the moisture is not being held by the air.
Still.here.
And I'm done, they just won't let me go.
I'm an Avengers nerd, and I really like the cartoons. I've got the DVDs for Earth's Mightiest Heroes, but there don't seem to be full run DVDs of Avengers Assemble. However, the episodes and seasons are available online, from Amazon, iTunes, and Vudu. My question: there are options to own those episodes. Does that mean "own", as in I can download them to my computer, or "own", as in I can pull them up online as long as one of those services is willing to host it but then I'm SOL? And if I can download them, is it a situation where Amazon or whomever can ping my computer an erase them when they've decided I've owned them long enough?
Teacher and librarian types - book suggestions for a 15yo boy who reads below grade level and does not like to read. I am looking at lots of lists online for ideas, but thought I'd ask.

Does he have any interest in comics?
some interest in comics, but he can do that on his own time. This summer is my way.
In other news, I'm taking Thursday & Friday off. I have a red eye flight to the East Coast departing 11:59pm on Wednesday, so I'm going to work from home tomorrow to make it easier on myself. I'm very much looking forward to 5 consecutive days of no work.
