Happy birthday, Cindy!
Dana, you've been in that meeting all day? YIKES. I'm guessing that doesn't actually help with getting stuff done?
It's my estimation that... every man ever got a statue made of him, was one kind of sumbitch or another.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I got some work done this morning. Then it was a two-hour meeting. Then she wanted to meet one-on-one immediately after, except I clawed out some time for lunch. Then it was back on the phone, and we just finished. A good 45 minutes of that call was talking about what we'd try to accomplish today. So I'm glad we've got that sorted at quarter to 3PM.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Yikes, indeed. At a place I used to work we had one woman who'd come in, get some coffee, wander around chatting with people, call her daughter, take an hour to walk around outside and do errands, take an hour lunch ... and, about 2:00 or 3:00 would start exclaiming about how much work she had to do and she didn't know how she'd get it all done ... to limited sympathy.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Happy Birthday Cindy!
52 is too fucking young to die. (My personal view: Younger than my parents-too young; my age-too fucking young; younger than me-way the fuck too young.)

I hope you get paid well, Dana. That is a lot of up to put with.
I did go to the Career Center thing, but it was mostly aimed at the newly unemployed. (I found out there are some great resources for them, however, which makes me happy with my Commonwealth. Oh, and the ex-con from Friday was there, taking lots of notes, so yay him.)
However I was able to snag a relatively quick set to rides to and from Cambridge to Jamaica Plain/Brookline and back to Cambridge, and I pulled onto my street just as the Snow Emergency was cancelled which meant I had my choice of newly-re-legalled parking spaces.
