Because everything is terrible, I've been trying to focus on work, which I totally acknowledge is a privilege.
Unfortunately, I'm trying not to lose my shit at someone who doesn't seem to understand that: a) I am not a manager, b) I'm technically not even a team lead, and c) I am working two full time roles right now, so what
exactly
would he like me to neglect in order to do the thing he's asking?
People, man. I'm going to stop being mad and assume he has good intentions after I take a walk and angrily eat some TJ's dark chocolate peanut butter cups.
I got nothing done today because I spent most of the day at the change of command and then they let us go early. Now I just had an ice cream cone, and I think I will go see Finding Dory because the world sucks.
Timelies all!
My folks are here, as is Gary's mom. We are waiting for Gary, whose flight from Chicago was delayed.
Sigh....
I had ice cream for snack this afternoon (leftover from a party earlier this week) and chips for dinner. So it's like that.
I had to leave work early with a migraine, take medication, and then sleep for two hours. It's definitely like that.
Good things. Worked all day so didn't have a chance to go on Facebook. Had big meeting with biggest customer and they kept saying things about this project and that with time lines for years so they should pay the bills for a while.
Took back to vendor expensive faucet that we bought a couple years ago, that maybe got messed up when installing, and they were super cool and gave us a brand new one for free. Never even asked for our name or receipt or anything. They said they didn't really think we would walk in off the street with a used faucet that they sold if we didn't get it there.
So we celebrated not having to spend a fortune on a new one by eating at a tiny hole in the wall local seafood restaurant that was nothing short of wonderful. The place is on a back alley where no one would ever find it unless they were told about it. All fresh local caught fish. Oh my!
I'm going to a local comedy lab tonight to try out my new set. I'm not taking class this summer, so I need a refresher. I am nervous and trying not to bolt at the last minute and go home.
A week's vacation begins in 11 minutes or when this call ends, which ever occurs 2nd.
Go you, Scrappy! That's so cool.
My co-worker dropped off a super-difficult part of the project that's been lagging behind so I could get started on it at 3:30 and promptly skedaddled. But then we lost power at 4 thanks to the storm front blowing through. Early weekend achieved!
