Home is behind, the world ahead, |
I have a bunch of free time. How 'bout that.
Cool! So you can go home early, then ;-)
Stupid traffic. :)
Oh, dear...
I was sort of late too but I have some slack time from Monday.
But I am excited about my trip next week. I'm in NM over a weekend and my mother is going to drive over for a visit. It's only five hours by car! We'll celebrate her birthday and go shoppin'. And I'm going to work on my outline for nanowrimo. I'm more motivated this year and plan to be more organized.
I think the reindeer parts are reserved for the dancer boys. I'll never be one of them.
I'm cool with the part. It looks like it will be a lot of fun.
In other news...I really want to leave now. I'm driving to my Mom's tonight. I'd just as soon get on the road.
Yay! I spent some time on mine last night. May redo it, there's a character who's being seriously underutilized. I get to do quirky-narrative-voice this year, I'm looking forward to it.
Can you sneak out the back door?
I'd mentioned to Rasputin earlier this week that I might want to leave early. He's in a meeting. I'm thinking if he's not out of there by three...I'm outta here...
I'm going to destroy the world.
The President beat you to it.
(I could probably get that published...)
Michael Moo would sue you for plagiarism.
In other news, Rita is a Cat 5...
I was stuggling with POV. Do I tell the story of the big villian? Or the story of the poor kid who was manipulated into carrying out the plot to end the world? I settled on making it a detective story where agents uncover the plot and discover the horrible details.
My villian would take credit for that...
Have your villain cover for me. I'm leaving.
Time to hit the road. I check in when I can.
Back from the volunteer job - just did through lunchtime today. Won't be going back until Monday 'cause I have job search related stuff for the next coupla days.
Felt a little better about things today, especially as the other data entry gal was there and admitted to having to guess on some details, too. So...we just do the best we can. I can handle that.
Good to hear!
Nice to feel somewhat useful again, even if it ain't fer pay.
Now...tomorrow I take the clerical test that may get me a job at the college, and Friday I interview for a position in Loveland, which isn't toooo terribly far away. I'd ruther work in town, but I guess I can't afford to be picky.
If I had arrived at work on time this morning, I'd be leaving just now. But alas. I'm going to sit here and be honorable about it. *harumph* :)
