Not much to post, just breezing through
May. 21st, 2008 10:50 amStuff has been going on, but much of it has been rather mild on the 'noteworthy' scale. We had a watermain break on the street in front of my building; Monday the street was flooded, and there was only a 1-foot area near a drain where you could hop across the rushing puddle/stream of water onto the sidewalk. They shut down the sidewalk not long after I got through. The next day, they dug the entire street up, and were only cleaning up when I came in today.
I got very pretty flowers from bosslady yesterday (I haven't had the heart to tell her I'm allergic to them, it was so sweet of her), and bossman let me keep some promotional toys he was sent (no cost to him, yet I was pleased - he's a practical gift giver). That was cool. They also let me leave at 4:30 so I could have dinner with my folks, which was cooler.
And other than that...Well, not a heck of a lot. I've read 'American Gods' by Neil Gaiman and 'The No-Asshole Rule' by a guy whose name I can't remember at the moment. Robert something I think; it's on Amazon. The second was a very interesting quick read about management in business organizations and 'building a civilized workplace'. Highly recommended. Started a book called 'The Turning' by Jennifer Armentrout this morning, it seems alright so far; I laughed out loud while reading it, which is usually a good sign.
Oh, and I'm going to be back in DC for a visit over Memorial Day weekend. Hopefully, it will be relaxing and drama-free for me. I need that at the moment.
EDIT: I'M GOING TO SEE GEORGE MICHAEL WITH HAPPYNONOPLACE IN JULY!!!!!!
