The SO once asked for, and got, a 50% salary raise. Now mind you, a) he started as a clerk and ended up doing programming, b) the only other person in the building who could do the work was a consultant who was making four times what he was, and c) he has the kind of chutzpah to ask for a fifty percent raise, but I was all WTF?
So, anyway, the SO's family's "go buy groceries for someone" push in memory of his dad made the local news. Apparently it was a bit of a crazy day.
Really pleased with my breakfast today. Nothing fancy - buttered toast, poached egg, slice of cheese - but I got it all to be pleasing textures and temperatures at the same time to come together well.
BTW, I tried to sign up for tumblr thinking that would be a good platform for my random outbursts about food but my account was terminated immediately upon creation so I guess I'm not doing that.
Congrats, sara! Recognition is awesome.
Today is going to be a shit day at work. Not excited.

WTF? Did they give you a reason?
Nope. Just a link to the Contact Us, which I did. The response I got to that was a canned "how to reset your password" (which I tried, did not apply) and I haven't gotten a response to my "this does not answer my question" reply to that.
Sorry about the shit day, Kat. Those are hard to get out of bed for when you know they are coming.
I'm glad that the exact time I get to the office is not a big deal, because if anyone asked me why I was a few minutes late today I would have to explain that it was because I had to fill the birdbath. It was completely dry and the high today is supposed to be 106! I'm already half expecting to come home one day and find that the starlings next door have rallied the finches and sparrows to confront me, chirping loudly how I have failed this city.
We have a meeting on Friday where we are getting a Hot/Continental breakfast. ?????
I actually had an interesting offer tonight that I'd like to talk to you about, jesse, if you wouldn't mind?
Of course!

That's great! I'm mad at myself that I was at the supermarket yesterday but forgot.
