Cute.

This morning my manager asked me if I'd be willing to take on another role part time because the person doing it may be leaving. The role is in an area of interest to me and I actually have the experience and skill set to do it, so I'll probably say yes. It's intended to be temporary, but even so, I probably should figure out time allocation and if there's anything that I'm currently working on that I'll need to hand off to someone else.

I don't know, man.

Super cute.

Yeah, I'm not really sure where additional time in your schedule will come from. Except for sleeping and maybe eating.

Cute!

I'm definitely not going to add work without getting rid of work, or deciding it's not a priority and it can wait. I'm already not getting enough sleep as it is.

I'm listening to playoffs hockey. One of the announcers just spelled out 'team'. What the fuck, sportsball?

Woot to both Sue and Suzi for life plans coming together!

Rebecca, that is very cute. I might be tempted to get it myself! Good thing we are unlikely to be caught both wearing it at the same time.

Sue! Awesome!

I've got over 50L of beverage in my car. Retirement party tomorrow. I'm in denial.

Looks like I'll get my new ceiling and walls patched this month. Fuck, I haven't stripped the baseboards or gotten paint.

I bought the dress and a red pair of Jack Purcell's.

Today has been an overwhelming day. First, UCLA stuff. Since I'm listed as adjunct faculty, I get Bruin Alerts. When they started coming, it was bad. And my student teachers were trying to figure out what to do because they had presentations on campus today. Then I remembered that one of my 11th grade students takes a math class on campus, in Boelter which is attached to Engineering 4 at 9:00ish. We were trying to figure out where he was.

Later, the police had to be called to our campus because one of our 6-year-old first graders bit the assistant principal. How bad does your life have to go to be 6 and to feel like the only way to work/control a situation is to bite a grown up.

Then K's mom fell and tore open a somewhat healed incision on her knee that had to be replaced. She was taken to the hospital to close a 1 inch by 8 inch wound. We cannot for the life of us figure out child care for the next 2 weeks so that K can go to Louisiana to help her.

I need a drink.

Life plans are awesome, go team life plans!

In light of which, I have produced my first successful at-home Manhattan. I had to replace the maraschino liqueur with raspberry liqueur, but it seemed to work fine. ... this could be a problem.

I also found a dog-sitter for my trip to family camp in July, yay!

After work I went to BevMo and bought Dad a case of different beers. He likes his beer in the afternoon, even though he only drinks about 3 ounces of it. It was nice to see him, but he mostly just slept while I was there. If you have to have dementia, the way he's got it isn't too bad. He sleeps, he watches tv, he goes on outings, he eats, he drinks a little beer.

YAY dog sitter. We are trying a dogvacay person. Meep.
