If you decide to break silence and reply to him, I suggest using the Turing test questions from Blade Runner.

2 employees at my location have been terminated as a result of random drug tests in the last month. Good lord. Come on people, they rest here, you know that.

ION - I had 3 handyman fixit jobs done at my house. It wiped out my checking account, but YAY DONE! I have a medicine cabinet I can see the mirror of and no gaping hole in my bathroom wall anymore. I have new properly affixed drawer pulls on my kitchen drawers. AND I now have pull down ladder access to my attic. I have wait two more pay periods before I can think about next steps, even things I might do myself, but woohoo finally moving forward after 4-5 year stall.

Well done, msbelle!

The guy in my department who got laid off the same time I, uh, transferred (even HR has trouble referring to that smoothly) got asked back. This company certainly gives a good impression of having no idea what they are doing sometimes.

The pwoer has flickered off twice this morning. So that's fun.

Yay, I'm working Thanksgiving, with the day after off so I get a three-day weekend. Thanksgiving will be remarkably dead, and my co-workers who will be here are already planning their multi-player game. Maybe I'll actually write.

Is it crazy for me to think about applying to work nights/weekends for the holidays? The extra pay would go solely to paying off debt.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Updating my resume. Don't wanna.

Strongly considering going back to school. Am worried too old.

Can't words. Want nap. Halp.

I'm thinking about that, too, msbelle. It's tiring to work that much, but if it's short-term maybe okay? How would that work out with Mac?

Not too old, Jess. Nap sounds good.

If I'm not too old, you sure aren't. And I'm going back to school even if it's the last thing I do.

I'm so sorry about Walter, -t. Love to you both.

Ahem. Was 40 when I got my bachelor's, will be 50 when I get my masters. Never too old. Though, I WILL likely die with unpaid student loans, but that is what it is.
