*Sigh*

So far today, my boss stalked me on my break, so she could corner me and bitch about her boss in CA; someone asked me to have a machine fixed, then when I asked them to describe what was wrong they said "what do you mean 'what's wrong with it?', it's broken"; and my favorite; I have to come in at 7:30 tomorrow and set up a breakfast, because the head of housekeeping is going to stay home with her sick granddaughter.

Frustrating, but on the whole not bad.  Although, I do seem to have more trouble on days like today, where my boss clings to me.  I AM NOT A BLANKY!  GO AWAY!  Stop calling, e-mailing, walking by my desk, following me into the lunch room and sitting with me, and following me out on my breaks.  I don't need a babysitter, you don't need any more kids, get the HELL out of my face.

Sorry.  *endrant*

Things that made me happy today

1) The two older people on the Metro, having a loud and boisterous discussion about how wonderful the salads they had for lunch were.

2) The managing partner stopping by my desk, to say 'hi, how are you'.  Not a big yay, but it's nice to know that the big guys notice and appreciate me.

3) Metro again:  There was some type of youth group/class field trip of hispanic boys, approx. 13-15 on the Metro with me.  When the guy sitting next to me got off the train, one of the boys very politely asked if he could sit there.  Personally, I find teenagers with good manners a special type of charming.

4) I came home to find that a work crew had torn a massive hole in the front yard to fix a broken pipe.  Kristine not only left me a nice note filling me in on what was happening, she left bottled water in the kitchen.  Yay roomie!

5) For dinner I made potatoes and onions with curry-garlic sauce.  It was very yummy.  Bad for my diet, but worth it.

6) An extremely random conversation about goats and goatsmilk with a co-worker.  You just don't get to talk about livestock enough at the office.

7) Work is progressing nicely on FAA chapter 12.  I'm hoping it'll be ready by this time next week.  Don't hold me to that too closely.
