I have also forgotten my hairbrush more than once, so that is on the list.
See, Vera? Dress yourself up; you get taken out somewhere fun.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Travel hairbrush is one of the best $3 I've ever spent. But I use a $3 hairbrush, so.

Coding and Sleeping
Slipped on the ice on the driveway and hurt my back and knee. I'm not a fan of pain, I'm just saying. It's been another busy day. I have a few things to do and then I might have a little time for myself for the first time since Friday. Have to get up at 5:45am though.

OMG, I just say my pending paycheck for my first week. I knew it would be bigger, but I didn't really put together how much the raise and lower benefits cost would add up to each paycheck. That's rather pleasant. I am feeling terrified of failing at the new job. I'm making contributions, but I'm not doing it quickly. OTOH, it's only been three days and the first one was full of getting set up. This afternoon was largely new hire orientation meetings so there hasn't been loads of time.

I'm going to take a stand that there's no way to make a meaningful contribution at a new job until you've been there three months.

Oh god I hope not (in the middle of hiring a bunch of people). But, yeah, no way after a couple of days!!

Gud, given that you are recovering from flu, have started a new job, and have slipped and hurt yourself twice, you shouldn't be doing anything else around the house for the next few days.

Yeah, I assume three months for my new employees to really get up to speed.

Herding cats for fun
Binged all the episodes of Black Books awhile back. I don't know how Dylan Moran was unrelenting curmudgeonly without making me loathe his character, but it was quite enjoyable.

A bit of a long shot and random, but - are there any Buffistas in or with knowledge of Lawrence, KS? A wonderful friend that I love dearly will be there for an academic conference in April. She really hates flights so I am looking for things that might lift her spirits while she's there (a good vegan place, general recommendations, etc.).
