When Rebecca gets older, she will be... tired?
I survived my first "crisis" at work on Friday. Of course, most people probably wouldn't have considered it a crisis at all. The coworker I interact with the most, A---, had to go home early in the day (around 10am) to take care of his sick kid. I tried to act calm, but inside, I was panicking. A is my manager, and every day, I'm constantly asking him, A, how do I do this? A, how do I fix this? A, what do I do? (I'm not even exaggerating. It's not that I'm incompetent at my job, but there's a lot of room for error and several different ways of running jobs.) I was seriously freaked at the thought of getting through the day without him... but I did it! I told myself what to do and didn't even have to call A for help. I'm not in a hurry to go through it again, though. I just refuse to think about what could happen when A goes on vacation -- or God forbid, if he ever quits. There's no way I could ever do his job!
I had fun this weekend at a potluck-dinner-and-a-movie night hosted by the temple. I even got Sara to come with me. A bunch of congregants brought dishes (I made Green Glop, and about 3/4 got eaten!) and we all watched To Be or Not to Be, a comedy about an acting troupe during the invasion of Poland. The discussion of the film afterwards dragged a bit though, and by the time we finally left, I felt exhausted -- and it was barely 9pm! (Conversely, when I should've gone to bed early on Sunday night, I was up late writing fanfiction!) I mean, what the hell? When/how did I get so old? I just never seem to have any energy anymore. But maybe it's not me, maybe it's the weather. I can't wait till spring is here and it's warm enough for bike-riding again!
P.S. I sure hope some young actress will go to the Oscars this year! At least one has been nominated, presented, or just attended every year since 2006, and I would hate for 2014 to break that streak.
