So my plan for this weekend was to read, play games and relax. I did all of those, so not a total waste. My other plan had been to forget about work/people ... that wasn't so successful. Saturday morning L text me to say that the head honcho had written to me to confirm I'd be helping him out while L is on vacation the next two weeks. I had to hop ( Read more... )

Had these last two days off, which made for a very nice long weekend. Of course, it also means time flew and I'm back to work tomorrow, which I do not want. Meh. Thankfully Memorial Day is next Monday so I have another three-day weekend to look forward to ( Read more... )

Now that the expansion is winding down, and the new one is on the horizon, things are slowing down in Warcraft. Been working on achievements in between raid nights. I'm almost at 19k achievement points, which is close to where my old account was at (my old account was about 19600 I believe).

Thursday/Work RantBefore I scribble away about the weekend … Thursday. So I work for two departments (mostly, really 3 but the third rarely gives me work and it’s more of a timed deal … like this needs to go out on blah, etc). My primary role is working in the Registrar’s Office, registering students that are late etc., transcripts, dealing with ( Read more... )

Work
It has been so nice. With everyone except the Dean and two other coworkers on my floor, everyone is on vacation. The quiet has been wonderful as I actually get most of my work done first thing in the morning and then I have the rest of the day to write.

WritingAnd writing I have been doing. I managed FOUR chapters today. Everything was just ( Read more... )

Hope everyone had a great weekend! Mine was surprisingly pleasant. We spent it at my brother Danny’s house.

Friday was my job’s work picnic and I am shocked I had a lot of fun. I left at 4pm to pick up my mother, and came back with her. We had a lovely time with a lot of laughs and good food. Played UNO with my coworker friends and we were of ( Read more... )

Friday

Other than the below snag, the day was pretty great. Started out really cloudy (as evidenced by my picture below), but turned out sunny and beautiful. All but three graduates showed up on time and made it out with the marshal. The stragglers had to run in from behind our tent and sneak into their seats. EVERY year, we have two or three that ( Read more... )

I have decided to lug the Nikon with me … lol. Reason why I don’t bring it with me more often and snap more photos like in the olden days, when it was a true passion of mine, is that I have a long lens on it 18mm-300mm and that sucker is heavier than the whole body … so yeah. Excuses, I KNOW… but nonetheless true. Still. I am bringing it with me, ( Read more... )

Excuse the MIA. Got really sick this weekend so pretty much spent the last four-five days in bed hacking up crap, feeling achy and just … all kinds of gross. I have been tempted to murder the coworker who was coughing all week and decided on FRIDAY to finally go to the doctor. But, I like my freedom ( Read more... )

I REALLY need to get writing again. It’s like this itch and it hasn’t been scratched in months and it’s starting to actually get irritating. So, I am trying to find communities that have daily prompts or weekly ones (or challenges). Anyone know if any good ones that are active ( Read more... )
