Brendon is off to Jury duty against his will. I delayed it for him his first notice because he truly was swamped, but told him if he wanted to delay it again he'd have to do it himself. We have a difference of opinion on the obligation to serve, you might say. Anyway, he didn't delay it, and he was still sleeping when I saw it on my calendar, although I reminded him every single day last week. So he will be late, but I expect he won't be alone in that regard. We are very close to downtown Ft. Lauderdale and the courthouse, but I imagine Monday morning traffic is nuts. Oh well, a bed of his own making. We shall see if he ends up in the pokey.
eta: He just showed up 45 minutes late. His level of annoyance at the whole ordeal is only amusing me. It's a good thing he can't see me shaking my head at his frustration. Seriously, he even wore sweat pants and a t-shirt although he never goes out that way. We almost never are 180° on issues, but jury duty is apparently one of them. Ha!
etaa: He is texting me pictures of the juror waiting area and complaining about the horrible seating and lack of food and drink options. They did not say anything about his tardiness. From his pictures the jurors seem to have all adopted Florida casual attire. T-shirts, shorts, and so forth.
I made it to Connecticut! I am basically vacationing beyond my plans at this point, because planning more than two weeks is impossible, who could do that? Javachik is a gracious host with a gorgeous house (so many windows and all of them looking out on bird feeders or trees or charming vistas of some sort).
Decided to pop into Slack just to make sure I still can and my boss’s last day is this Friday, do I don’t know what I’m going back to.
Do not have to think about that right now…
We just found out that Tim is going to have surgery today at 1:00. It's the surgery that basically sticks the lung to the chest wall so hopefully the lung won't collapse again. We knew surgery would be today or tomorrow , and there was a cancellation, and he hadn’t eaten yet today, so they scheduled him in.
They said it's a simple procedure that takes about 60-90 minutes. He could be home by Wednesday, or maybe a little later, but almost certainly by the end of the week.
I'll update you guys when the surgery is over. Send surgery~ma!
Much surgery ~ma sent. And calm~ma for you.
Jury duty update was that he was called to a courtroom an hour and a half ago, so he is a) going to be dismissed b) going to the pokey or c) being seated. We shall see. He is going to be complaining for a week.
Surgery~ma galore! I'm glad they can get right to it, so hopefully he will be breathing like a boss asap
Oh Teppy, I'm so sorry. I know he'll be ok, but its so hard until he is!
Sending all the surgery ~ma Tim's way.
my boss’s last day is this Friday, do I don’t know what I’m going back to.
I can sympathize! My department has had so many sudden departures over the part month the org chart basically looks like swiss cheese. (And the gossip mill is running at FULL capacity...nobody knows the full story so the conspiracy theories are WILD)
Go Tim's doctors! Staple that lung!
