Mutiny in the ranks, plotting and planning...
On the weekends, I allow myself to stay up late. "Late" being a relative term--now that I've reached middle-age, "late" is any time past 11 pm. I remember when that was the shank of the evening.
We nearly had a full-scale mutiny in the Friday meeting this morning. I'm not the only one who's pissed at having to do twice as much work as they signed on to do. In addition to the usual bitches bitching, a few people who don't usually, did. The phones were comparatively quiet today; I dug into the correspondence and am not as far behind as usual--and someone offered to help me with one of the things that was getting really piled up--I owe her, big time.
Lunch with Kat went well--we hit China Garden, and it was the first time in ages that I've been in there when it wasn't a lunch run--I really enjoyed it. She's looking at a house with serious intent--much closer than where she is now--I *could* conceivably walk there; it's only about a mile. (Would be half that if there was a path through the woods at the end of the street....) Good exercise.
Had a chat with AI this evening about The Book. She suggests I keep the ideas in some format that can easily be rearranged, such as 3x5 index cards. I don't happen to have any spare cash for same, but I'm certain I've got a smallish loose-leaf notebook (recycled planner!) somewhere. I just need to locate it. And I know I have a hole-punch somewhere in here...it may not be ideal, but it will serve for the interim.
