Friday the Thirteenth
Ugh, work continued to suck today. I officially hate Repair RCMAC. In provisioning, I was stressed all the time, because I took over 100 calls a day and it was unrelenting. However, because I took so many calls, my points were high and my boss was happy. Now, in repair, every fucking call and ticket is a 20-40 minute cluster-fuck, and I’m stressed all the time, but -not- making my points. Ugh. elbanditorojo was wrong - for me, at least, repair SUCKS.
Last night, at least, was productive, although not in the way I intended, as usual. I got off work two hours early to go and pick up my paperwork to file with FMLA, because AT&T are bastard people and you have to file for Family Medical Leave for *yourself* if you miss a day (or three) of work. I’ve been fighting with my doctor’s office for a month to get them to fill out the forms, and since now they’re late, I went to pick them up personally to make sure there were no more delays.
Once I had my paperwork, I dropped by icespark’s since I was literally practically in her neighborhood. I’d planned to just drop by for a hug, but I wound up hanging out and snuggling on the couch with her until six, enduring amusingly bad episodes of first-season Charmed. At six I reluctantly roused myself enough to head home, figuring I’d get a little time alone before lildomino got off work.
As it was, lildomino had to work later than expected, so I had a lot more time alone than I thought I would. Naturally, I used the time constructively and wisely. Oh, wait - no, instead I checked email and read comic books, greatly enjoying Marvel 1602: Fantastick Four. Not exactly productive, but good for unwinding from the stress of the day.
I was poking around on my computer when lildomino messaged me to tell me she was finally free with work, so I told her to come over, and then I restarted my desktop, since it was acting buggy. I did manage to come up with a backup of a file I’d lost easier in the week, so that was good.
When lildomino got to my apartment, we ordered Chinese food, and lildomino got in the shower, since she was hot and sticky from work. When she got out in the shower, she just put on a button-up flannel shirt and nothing else, which was pleasantly distracting the rest of the evening. We sat in the living room to eat, and then she curled up with her psychology homework and I hopped online to do some admin work on tfumux.
To my surprise, even at eleven PM we had twenty-four players online, and I soon got sucked into role-play. I wound up role-playing online ‘til about one AM, when lildomino finally finished her studying for the night. I never did get any admin work done, so I quickly set up some new characters for the MUX, and then logged off to get ready for bed. I didn’t get any journaling finished like I’d wanted to, but I did get caught up on a lot of admin stuff after all.
All-in-all, I had a pretty industrious and relaxing evening. I enjoy hanging out with lildomino when we’re both being productive, and then snuggling together at the end of the evening. My days have sucked this week, but my nights have been rather pleasant. Tonight I was thinking about hanging out with Sega since it’s her birthday this weekend, but she’s out of town, so it looks like I’m going to get to see Asca instead, which is a very agreeable last-minute surprise.
