Bad News/Good News

Bad news:
  • For the third day in a row it's cold and rainy here.  It's supposed to remain like this through the weekend.
  • I was so tired last night after my five day vid farr that I fell unconscious on the couch as soon as credits rolled on "I Believe Children Are Our Future", slept there until 7:00am this morning, and didn't get to rewatch Supernatural or write my commentary
  • The heat in my office either roasts me alive or doesn't work at all.  I've been here less than three hours and have adjusted the bloody thing about a half dozen times
  • Mom isn't coming down at all post-surgery (which I've mentioned in some of my comments but didn't whine about in an actual entry *g*)
Good news:
  • I was asked to teach Intro to Literature next semester.  At a real, academically selective university with good students (aka where I work full-time) and a normal class schedule (two 75 minute classes a week as opposed to the once a week 220 minute classes I'd taught for the last four years).  I won't even know how to act!
  • One of my direct reports walked in the door this morning and handed me a large Dunkin' Donuts coffee fixed just the way I like it and a pumpkin muffin, and said, "Happy Bosses Day."
  • It's Friday.
  • The problem that had made work rather tense earlier in the week seems to be less problematic than originally thought.
  • The fridge at my home (that I'm renting out) miraculously fixed itself (we don't question these things...).
  • My sis is coming in for nine days to help me after surgery and will be here at Thanksgiving (even though she has a family of her own--let's give it up for my little sister, people!)
  • People seem to like my Supernatural vid.  :-)
  • There is chocolate in the break-room.
All in all, not too shabby.

Now I just need to rewatch Supernatural and get my commentary glasses on.

Happy Friday, all!
