FRANK???
Hee. Start spreadin' the news....
I have a cut and color appointment tonight, and the town Halloween parade tomorrow (so I have to work in the shop), and Sunday, we have a 4-year old's birthday party. Regardless, it's going to be a fabulous weekend.
I guess I really didn't believe my boss when he said that I'm very highly regarded in the company. In addition to the call from the CotB, I got emails or calls from the VP, CEO, National Accounts Manager, and the CHRO. I'm the first person that they've ever handed out a second PIP extension to, and I'm the first in over 10 years to survive a PIP. It's nice, but part of me is like why put me through it in the first place?
Hm, through accidental experimentation I have determined that 1 Tylenol and 1 Advil is sufficient for my current mouth soreness, but 2 Advil is not.
Yeah, that is gratifying and also kind of odd, Maria.
This weekend I have things to do on both Saturday and Sunday, and Sunday's thing involves exercise (but also wine, and cheese). I hope I survive.
I just signed up for one of the class actions against Volkswagen (fuckers), and one of the questions was when I bought the car. I didn't know off the top of my head, and the paperwork is all at home, but I was able to find the answer in one of the old Natter threads. Yay old Natter threads.
So what is everyone doing this weekend?
As little as possible. Farmer's market, going for walks, sleeping. Probably continuing the battle against fleas.
Oh, HELL YEAH, MARIA!!!
All the woot! in the world
I am going dancing tonight, hiking with a friend tomorrow morning, Sunday morning I'm trading lattes for some time with a baby, and Sunday afternoon I'm going to the theater with a friend. Also, lots and lots of laundry. And bringing in the patio furniture.
I am probably hunkering down, since it's supposed to pour and possibly flood. Though now I want oysters. Thanks, Matt.
My SiL has been in Nicaragua all week for work, and she was supposed to fly back to Colorado tomorrow, which is directly through the path of the hurricane. Fortunately they put her on a plane to NOLA today, and to Colorado from there.
I know that's minor compared to people who live and work directly in the path, but still. That's a big fucking hurricane.
Yay Maria!
I'm getting a transfusion. Yay?
I want oysters too, except that these days so much food sounds good right up to the point that I start to eat it. This Taco Bell burrito, for example. Maybe if it wasn't left over from lunch.
The LPN who was giving me my weekly shot at first said I hadn't had my blood work done, even though those results are why I'm having a transfusion. Then she read the medicine amount wrong. I can only hope I got the right stuff. The LPN who was actually helpful hasn't been there for several weeks. She was the one who gave me the direct number to the nurse's desk, and last week I was told sternly that I wasn't to call that number. I'm supposed to call the advice nurse, a woman whose brain moves very slowly. I have talked to her maybe 10 times, and she still can't get anywhere near the pronunciation of my name. She wastes about five minutes every call talking about how she's usually good with names. I fear there's been some upheaval that is not in my favor.
