The I'm up early MMP!

{{Gotti}}

I managed to sleep in late again- I’ve been trying to get to the post office depot to pick up a parcel, but the stoopid place shuts at midday. I managed to find it yesterday- too late of course, then woke up at 11.38 today, so didn’t even try. Bah. I wants my parcel!

No supper with former coworker - he just called and he sounded like crap, poor thing. So we’ll just have to catch up next time he comes here.

Missy Prissy is going to have a fit but I went over her head to ask for info about something I’m supposed to be drawing. She can’t tell me what I need to know and I’m tired of asking her. So I expect to hear about it. pfffft - I can quit any time - I’ve earned all I need for my cruise, so screw it!

FCD just took the car back to the place that installed our hitch - the left tail light doesn’t work, nor do any of the trailer lights, but they work when hooked to the truck, so the problem is the car. I’m glad he’s dealing with it. I’s tahred.

And the store called today to ask for more texting mitts in earth tones as well as more crab towels. Guess I know what I’ll be doing this weekend.

But since our supper plans changed, I don’t know what we’ll about that. But I’m hungry! I could be lazy and just make some mac-n-cheese, but I should have real food. We shall see when my sweetie gets home.

Happy Wednesday - c/mon Firday!!!

Highest projected high for the next five day is 51 (tomorrow), three nights of the next four have lows in the 20s.

Trying to wake up from Nyquil taken after several nights of poor sleep. We do have errands to run, so waking up is a must. Today’s “fun” includes hauling the Princess out for her rabies shot and license renewal (the city shelter does low-cost rabies shots, so that’s where we’re going). A howling Siamese in the car for at least 20 minutes each direction, yay.

Had a bad fall today. :frowning: So I’ve been kind of sore all day.

So much to do today.

Poor baby!
:frowning:

Gently, {{{{{{Midget}}}}}}}

Thanks, all. :slight_smile:

Home from Evening Prayer over to the church house. 'Twas nice as usual. I was Slackolyte and once again managed not to wreak havoc, so all in all, a success. :smiley:

{{{gotti}}} I’m so sorry you’re still dealin’ with all that pain. Here’s hopin’ the post-op check will be a good one and that the doc can find some way to help ease the pain.

{{{Midget}}} here’s hopin’ you feel better from your fall soonest.

It’s warm enough out that I may sleep with a fan on tonight. It’s 72 Amurrkin as I post!

OK, gonna go surf for a bit then go lie upon the bed. I feel an earlyish sleepytime comin’ on.

Nitey Nite Y’all!

Worked, came home. Working at a different store tomorrow.

Good morning all. Today is my ‘final’. Although, there’s nothing for me to do except show up. My supervisor and mentor discuss and evaluate my work and then my supervisor and I go over the scores.

Blurf. Ouch. My arms still hurt from the fall. :frowning:

Up, caffeinated, off to work.

: ices Midget :

If I want to be iced, I can just go outside. :slight_smile: Actually, I think that it’s supposed to be warm and rainy today.

Must go off to irk soon.

Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and well, already caffienated and brekkied. ‘Tis 68 Amurrkin out and rainin’, with a predicted high of 81 for the day. The rain is supposed to go away soon. We shall see.

Today I have to go to the upper and west fortys first thing so I’m still here at da cave cause it’s just easier to leave right from here than go to the orifice first. Gonna be a looooooongish day though with a lot of drivin’. ICK!

Ok, that’s all I got. Soonish I need to purtify for irk even if’n I don’t want to, sigh.

Happy Thursday Y’all!

Blurf.

Managed to pick up the parcel today- there was a mahoosive queue outside the post office though, they really need to do longer opening hours for Christmas. Glad I decided not to wait to have breakfast first, or I might not have got in.

Incidently, the parcel contained a dress I bought on Ebay- it’s… erm… somewhat lower cut than expected. I’m pretty sure I could get arrested wearing that in some countries, but luckily, England is not one of them :wink: :smiley:

I don’t have much to do today now. I was going to do some gardening, but it’s really windy, and it’s supposed to rain a bit this afternoon. I’m braving the local shopping mall with one of my housemates later. We’re not going into the main bit though, just a craft store on the outskirts- so it should just be the edge of Mordor, not full on Mt Doom.

Nuts you maul shop like I do. I hit the anchor stores and rarely go in the maul proper. ::shudder::

All purtified and killin’ a few minutes before makin’ tracks to the north forty. I keep hopin’ the rain will stop. It’s supposed to stop. Stop, rain, stop.

Morning all.

Today is full of good news and bad news.

Good News: It is not going to rain on Friday and its going to be warm so putting up the lights will be easier.
Bad News: I have to work at least a half a day maybe more in preparation for a massive project I need to support next week that is located in Spain.

Good News: I may have a way not to attend the stoooopid company christmas party that starts at 5pm 45 minutes away from my work.
Bad News: The whole reason I might not be going is that I will need to support the Spain project and might need to be at work at 3 am or earlier.

Good News: I am authorized to work overtime if necessary for supporting the Spain project.
Bad News: I wont get paid for that over time until around this time **next **year.

I dont mind supporting the Spain project, especially because its to help my co-worker who’s in California on emergency leave to be with her mother who is most likely dying. The only real objection I have to the whole thing is my companys stoooopid overtime practices. Once we reach 1096 hours for the year, anything above that triggers overtime but not before (I am not sure if that is legal but not going to get into that), and before anyone asks, I am salaried, but a guberment contractor so things are hinky for me based on the contract.

My boss is very much a salesman - as a project manager he’s worth very little, what he’s good at is people management.

Today I mentioned that the people doing QC on our data loads are spending a lot of time looking things up in three separate spreadsheets when a couple of quick vlookups could compact all the information into one within seconds and he said “not everybody has your mad skillz - that check you did with your data, the data from purchasing and the production stuff left the whole team openmouthed.”

I know he’s a flatterer, but I have to admit, it worked.

B is for Bugger!

L is for “lord, why?”

U is for unpleasant

R is for ratzafratzafrp

F is for F#@K ALL
