It's Christmas Eve and I am... at work. But I'm not resenting it quite so much today. The reason, I think, is because nobody is here. Of the thousands who usually work in the building, there can't be more than a couple hundred still around. In the biggest company, John Hancock, those who weren't fortunate enough to be on vacation the rest of the ( Read more... )

Well, I was unexpectedly offered a temp job when I went to training. Sounds like it's going to be working in a clean room, one of those sterile manufacturing environments, doing some sort of assembly work. 11pm to 7am, Monday night through Saturday morning. Seems to be a long-term position too, so I can start looking for something that will ( Read more... )

So... no confirmation yet, but I may be employed soon. If it works, it's going to be temp work, but at least it's something... and temp work has the potential to become actual employment.

Leaving for the airport in an hour or so. My laptop is charged and full of anime (and a bit of Red Dwarf as well), my CD player is loaded with Opeth, and my itinerary is printed (compliments of Beth). I've got an aisle seat... here's to hoping there's no one in the middle. Looking forward to seeing my family and Oregon friends again, but not so ( Read more... )

I forgot-- apparently, I'm coming home for Spring Break. It'll be brief (primarily Sunday-Wednesday) but I will be back. I only just found out about this recently. Should be fun, though.
Absolutely no idea how busy it's going to be at this point... but hopefully I'll get to see some of you!

Off I go... for real, this time.

Seeing as I spent the last two weeks of work updating all the computers in the lab with various programs and getting the lab running perfectly, I think I am going to make a post during this shift, if for no other reason than boredom (and the fact that there is really no work for me to do.

This term is far too busy.Monday, Wednesday, Friday ( Read more... )

Well, I have finished my thesis.
However, turning it in caused me to miss lunch.
I hunger!

However, I can begin paying attention to the rest of the world once again.
Also, I can tell you all about the Sedition Act of 1798 if you're interested.
I can even provide you with some good, hearty reading about it.
No? Really? You sure? Okay.
