(We do close Monday.)
I picked up my hold today so I would have something to read on Monday!
Our kitty was so bad at the vet today (mostly when his claws were being trimmed) that the vet sent him home with an Rx for a mild sedative to give him before we ever bring him in for a claw trim again. DAMN, Murderbiscuit. You could fucking chill, my guy.
He's also lost 1/2 a pound since his last checkup, and he's already a little cat. I suspect part of it is that I don't think he ate anything when we boarded him when we were in Colorado. This was a comprehensive checkup where they do blood tests and whatnot, and the vet said he's super healthy, so she isn't concerned about his weight, but doesn't want to see him lose any more weight, and would be fine if he put that 1/2 pound back on. So we may add some more gooshyfood, or maybe more treats or something.
I picked up dinner from the pizzeria near-ish to the vet that has gluten-free pizza, and it's keeping warm in the oven and I can smell it and I might just have to eat the whole thing right now. I'm sure Tim wouldn't mind. I also got a salad big enough for 2-3 people, because (1) we don't have any salad in the fridge, and (2) salad at restaurants always tastes so much better. Why is that?
You need to release some voles in the house, so that he can get his recommended daily allowance of murder.

I can't see any way in which that could lead to hilarious and possibly rabies-carrying shenanigans.
I swear to God that if I ever get a work-at-home job, I'll get a dog.
Shit I can't say on Facebook:
Dillo (12) is in his room, playing a video game online with a friend and chatting over the headset. I overhear: "Dude, I had a dream I had two dicks..."
You wouldn't get a comp day for working on a weekend, Jesse? Our system for that is very informal and, I guess, kind of generous. Hardly ever comes up, though.
My boss is pretty easy with time, like if I ever leave at 3, I don't put in anything, but no, no one ever offered me a free day off for working on a weekend.
Well, if you were hourly you'd get double time for working on a paid holiday, and not for Sunday, so that makes some sense. At least that's my possibly not very accurate understanding of how it works in CA
Anyway, I don't mind it! I don't work a lot of extra time, so five hours once a year is fine.
I'll basically take Thursday afternoon off for graduation, too.
Our bean counters are really particular about 80 hrs per pay period. Mgmt really has to explain hours over & they hate that (even though it isn't paid overtime), so if you work on a weekend, you take that lost weekend time off in that pay period. Since our pay periods end midnight Friday, you always have at least a week if you can't plan ahead.
Hours under, well, sick & vacation leave is generous enough, it gets used for that.
