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.

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.

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.

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.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

We are being released early, which I had completely forgotten might happen. And I came in early, so I'll be leaving at 1pm, yay!
