The One Where I Catch Up
I’m using ‘catch up’ in loose terms.
My contract review at work went really well and now I’m in the midst of reviewing all our policies and procedures in relation to all parts of the contract, in advance of the corporate auditor checking things out. I’m shooting to have my part done by the end of this month.
Let me say only two things about this:
1. Keep your policies and procedures separate. Seriously. “Policy and Procedure Manual” is an abomination against productivity.
2. This task is precisely as enjoyable as it sounds like it would be. That said, I’m cranking through it at a pretty good clip because I’m motivated to get it OVER WITH.
I haven’t had a chance to read anything not policy/procedure related since the end of January but finally got back on the wagon with some John Green books. I’ve got some facebook friends doing a read-a-long and it’s been nice to have someone to discuss with in close contact to the actual reading.
My program just had an important anniversary and I’m getting interviewed by the local paper. I’ve done a pretty good job avoiding mention in the paper thus far and I’m not exactly full of confidence in the local paper’s willingness to not hack us to bits, but that’s the gamble I guess
In other, unrelated news, I’ve been eating quinoa for breakfast (with banana) and it’s been a really good thing. Unlike oatmeal, it’s very easy to make beforehand and just reheat in the a.m.
