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

Is your job in the city, Jess? Or at least a better commute?

Yep, it's in Manhattan. On nice days, within walking distance of GCT (which takes longer but is nicer than either being in the car or on the subway). Fastest possible commute if the trains line up is exactly an hour door to door, which is a huge improvement!

I hope the new job lives up to promise and the flu skips you.

I *still* don't know what I'm working on tomorrow. If govt reopens, a later start to the exercise, but I need to know how we are defining shifts (conventional or that other schedule they sent out) and if we're shifting the staffing schedule by 2 days or not. Only reply I got was from another wondering the same, complimenting me on my refined sarcasm. Damnit, I edited that email hard. He knows me well.

And my boss is curiously and uncharacteristically silent.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh good, Jess!

Yikes, Sara. May you get information.

It wasn't a torturous hour of mindless entertainment, because of the acting, but I don't think I'll turn in regularly, unless they rework a whole lot.

Thanks!

The Senate postponed their vote until noon tomorrow, so I'm pretty sure your answer is "I dunno," Sara. Sorry.

I'm clear for tomorrow, regular work. No worries as to where I show up or when. Still gonna test out my 2 new alarms (I usually wake up plenty early to make a 7:30 start, but sometimes, especially in winter, I don't. So extra alarms.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

In the theatre world we actually have a regular thing called a 10 of 12, it's a 12 hour day with a 2 hour dinner break.

Yep. Had three of those this week. Plus two 8 of 10s and a 5hr rehearsal before preview. Luckily I can have my assistant handle the morning notes sessions before rehearsal. I slept in today.

Congrats, Jess.

Americans, I have a question. How on earth does your VP (who is currently in my city) know where am I planning to be and block the traffic to that specific part of the city, on every day of his trip here? I am amazed at very fine details here and concerned that superpowers might be involved.

Our wings are not tired.

Sorry Shir, I am pretty sure Pence ingests scary looking insects he keeps in a box in the closet to stay that evil. Hoping for ascension some time this year.
