Ha! Not even going to click because the smile already happened.

Happy Friday! Plans for the big weekend?

I have date night tonight with dinner then watching God of Carnage at the local theater. Saturday working on house construction projects. Sunday have the memorial for DH's aunt who passed a bit ago. Not sure about Monday. The kids have to work! I might do a BBQ pool thing later in the day.

Sorry about the job news, Dana. Hopefully you'll both find something less troublesome in short order.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

One thing I'm having to learn is that just because a piece of furniture is wonderful doesn't mean it has to keep living in my house. stares at awkward coffee table

I'm also trying to learn this lesson. Avoids catching the eye of cute little secretary desk my mother loved but I have no use for.

Here's hoping the job sitch ends up being a net positive, Dana.

Oh, Dana, I'm so sorry. Fingers crossed for positive job movement for both of you!

Hey Matt, good time to be a Bruins fan!

Yes it is! And the Blues are my #3 team, so really I'll be happy for either of them to win.

Coding and Sleeping

My afternoon meeting was canceled! I can just chill out in my cube and write code until the three day weekend starts. This is a good development.

We're being released early. Yay!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

We are explicitly NOT being released early.

But I just finished all my annual reviews! Now I should actually do the one for Colleague Who Thinks I'm Incompetent. I had a good conversation with my boss about how to say what I think, but of course that was at least a week ago, so I don't really remember the details. Oh well!

Also this week, I heard a junior colleague who I don't even know who it is thinks highly of me, which was surprisingly thrilling to me.
