I've been sick since the 31st, so I didn't get to enjoy the holiday or the shortened week. Bah.

Yeah I’m in the very “but I don’t WANT to do my job!” part of reacclimati g after a very slow December. But people keep wanting things from me.

I'm at the "I guess I'm not laid off so now I have to do my job" stage.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

While I do not have a job, I have, in fact, been working all morning because I have guests arriving this afternoon.

So, not only did I have to clean the Guinea Pig cage by myself (and it was two days overdue. Overpoo?) But some of the Xmas eve cooking happened down in the Garden apartment and it had been left in the sink for a couple weeks. Soooo, that was a fun cleanup.

Now I just have to vacuum before they arrive and then I will whisk them off to Japantown for ramen and poking around.

Right?!? People are the worst.

I'm at the "I guess I'm not laid off so now I have to do my job" stage.

Unfortunately mixed "Yay!" with "Aw, darn!"

Now THAT sounds like a tough job. AND you won't be paid for it. Booo!

Yay!!

Their flight came in an hour and a half early!

I had to turbo vacuum. They're in the cab from the airport.

Damn, that was a hell of a tail wind!

Right? And it's not a long flight from Seattle to start with.

Seriously, that plane must have nigh-transporter capabilities!

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

Sounds more like they were catapulted (which would be a fun way to travel, although maybe not at those speeds).
