working for the weekend
Weekend Report
So my trip to Kingston was pretty great. Not only did I get to see a. who I haven’t seen in a couple of months, we set ourselves up in a swank hotel complete with a hot-tub and pool (which we took advantage of in the morning, so we had it all to ourselves which was a good thing as I only had boxer-briefs to swim in). We also treated ourselves to a fine Italian dinner, and did other random fun stuff like walk along the water until I was so tired a. had to hold me up as we walked back to the hotel, took pictures of the city water tower, and shopped at a used bookstore with a good selection of sci-fi (I bought Tek War by William Shatner). a. ended up coming back to Toronto with me at the last minute (literally, we were waiting for her bus back to Montreal in the station) so I had company on the drive back Sunday night - which no doubt saved me from careening off the road.
Work Report
Tuesday my right ankle and knee started to bother me (I walk around in rubber boots all day- so no real reason why is needed), and yesterday it got worse even with both wrapped in tensor bandages. I need to go to the doc today, and don’t know how he is around workers comp issues, mostly I just want have my bases covered in case it gets worse, and I want to make sure I don’t really eff my leg up. I have arranged to do office work to do for the next couple of days (hopefully I won’t have to be off doing “production” more than that), but not without getting into a fight with my boss first. At least I don’t have to miss work, as I can’t really afford to lose the days’ pay.
Okay, nothing else new, go about your business, nothing to see here, move along.
