I have fire extinguisher training this afternoon, which I am looking forward to, otherwise I would be sorely tempted to call in or work from home today. Just cause I don't wanna go to work, really.

Natter 74: Ready or Not
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I was feeling pretty awake this morning. Then I got out of bed. Dunno why I'm so tired as I go to bed on time last night.
And there's no interne at work. I have to browse the internets using the cell connection on my iPad instead of my laptop (the horror!).
All day training. New HR system.
Faking smiles and excitement all day long.
OTOH, I am around people and that energizes me. Also most attendees are women which is a nice change for me.
Things I will not say in my conference call: Whoever you are, can you stop breathing loudly into your mike?
Ugh. My mom is sick and won't go to a doctor. (She did go once, about 10 days ago.) They thought it was a UTI, but that seems to have cleared up, but she's still not well. Everyone is superstressed and my family does not respond to stress well. My sister whose my parents' main caregiver is turning on everyone.
My other sister was trying to get me to come back home, but I am leaving for England in 4 days. There's not much I can do from here besides call my mom and try to convince her to go to the doctor. So I am stressed and feeling guilty.
I'm sorry, Sue. I hope you can enjoy your trip without guilt!
I am at work and definitely no more enthused about it than I was before I left home. Oh well.
Wrote this an hour ago and never hit post. Even less enthused now!
I definitely have to do my annual review today because today's the deadline. Do not want. I don't wike it. Whine whine whine.
Ugh, annual reviews.
I have an urge to take up throwing knives as a hobby. It seems like it would be relaxing. But I'd mostly want to practice at work, I suspect.
I just got my boobs smushed, and am waiting for the results.
Better than annual review doing though.
We keep having connection problems. I have joined this meeting four separate times.
