At Work...Sort Of
Besides me, there are 2 people left in my office now. I’m here, but…not really working. I love these non-holiday holidays where there’s hardly anyone here and it’s really quiet. I’m answering the main phone line, but nobody’s really calling, since most people thing we’re closed. I’ll be here until 5, which is fine because Cooper is at day care. No point in leaving early and depriving him of those last few minutes of playtime.
Syracuse won last night, which means they’re going to the Elite 8. The game started around 10PM, so I did not stay up and watch. I’ll get to watch their next game on Saturday. And luckily for me, there are 2 games that day- one at 4:30 and the other at 7:05- and Syracuse is in the early game. We have tickets to the Gay Men’s Chorus “Big Gay Sing” concert that night, so I would have missed the game if they had the later time slot.
So that’s our big plan for the weekend- watch basketball and go to the Gay Men’s Chorus. Sunday is Easter, but that’s pretty much a non-event for us, but that night Game of Thrones returns for season 3, and that’s definitely something to get excited about. I was hoping to get more of the books from the Song of Ice and Fire series read between seasons 2 and 3, but only got around to reading the first book. I liked it, but decided to take a break before getting the second one, and I just keep acquiring other books that I end up reading. I go to the used bookstore a lot and buy about 3-4 books at a time. When I finish those, I bring them back and get credit, buy 3-4 more, and the cycle repeats. And no, I don’t own a Kindle, Nook or any of those new-fangled contraptions. I’m old school like that.
