Assuming I get it, it would be nice to get the recognition and more money for the level of work I've already been doing.
Heck yeah.
May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

All right, I have sent a list! Now we wait to see what my manager thinks, and then I'm absolutely fucking off for most of the afternoon unless something is on fire.

Go, shrift!
My weekend has begun! We have planned to do nothing, on purpose. I have dinner with a friend on Sunday, but that's it.
We've been doing good stuff for the last five weekends, which was also on purpose, because we'd become sort of reclusive. But... break time.
I plan to listen to my book on audible a lot.

"What are you all up to?" was how I meant to end that.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Happy Birthday lisah!
The talk about grits reminds me of a story Carla Ulbrich(singer-songwriter originally from South Carolina) tells about her husband(from New Jersey). He wanted to go to Waffle House on one of his visits while they were dating. She said, ok, but there are two rules: 1) We must go at 2 am and 2) He has to order grits. Punchline to the story is "I've never seen any one eat just one grit"

Thrive to spite them
I hope people are having a nice Friday. I wasn't feeling great this morning and felt out of breath and just not great from taking a shower and moving around. Called the doctor office who told me to go to the er for tests.
This was around 1130 so not that early. Had an EKG and a chest xray. Finally got bro8ght back to the er exam area. They are busy today. Around 5 sl finally saw a Dr who ordered breathing treatment and was going to tell the nurses to get me some water. He checked back at some point and I hadn't seem a nurse. Finally got some peanut butter and crackers and water.
It's 7:50 almost and still no breathing treatment. I don't seem to have a nurse call button. Oh no I found it. No one showed it to me.
I have a headache probably from lack of caffeine and I'm hungry but a nurse who briefly popped in said I probably couldn't have food if I needed a procedure done but also didn't seem to have any idea why I was here so....
I don't actually feel that bad right now and I just want to go home

I hope you get your breathing treatment soon, feel better, and can go home.

Oh, no, askye! That’s a long time to wait around and not even know what you are waiting for!
