Woke up to wind and tons of rain. Standing water everywhere.
And what a day. Got in at 6:30 to find a number of e-mails from my German boss, some related to the trip ahead. Two hours later it was into a European-North American teleconference, during which I got sidetracked by a need for a document only I could provide (and it's been over 3 years since I last looked at the program that creates it -- still putting that together). Went to finish my expense report for Cairo only to find the expense report software was saying the hotel billed me 10x what the hotel said it billed (in Egyptian pounds, the US dollar figure was right) -- learned it was a software bug (whew)! Then my Gereman boss reports that the customer visits my last day in Vienna are off so maybe I could leave a day early... are you as tired as I am yet?
I need to get rich and retire early so I can pull back ahead...
I got tired just reading your post! LOL!
But that’s why YOU have the job and I don’t! ;o]
Um...you were out for a while with the move and the job search, and all, so I just kept right on yakking! *my bad*
Naw... Good on ya’! I’ve been a bit more active on other websites recently. I think some 40k of the 69k posts on at least one forum are mine... Then again, I’ve been posting on the various incarnations of that particular board since 1994.
Do I need to get a life, or what!
LOL!
Well, you’re back, now, so forge ahead! *snirt*
I thought you had a life?
Who else could make all those kids fit into the places they’re supposed to be?
And who else could deliver such pearls of wisdom from said experience?
Nobody, that’s who! We LOVE ya!
I post all this stuff so people will say nice things about me :-).
No, actually it’s because I can’t live without all of you for more than a few days!
Supper’s on: Broccoli-rice casserole with cheese, Italian sausage, and leftover Cuban pork roast and beans (for the desperately hungry).
I’m going to indulge in a hot pastrami on rye, today. My mouth wants it.
And I feel the same way you do about all the UTers...what would I do without y’all?
Broccoli-rice casserole sounds REALLY good!
Just learned I have a vacation day in Vienna. Called to see if I could get my return trip moved up a day and learned it would cost an extra $1700 to do so.
Now I have to rethink whether I bring one of the larger cameras.
Yum!
That sucks. Everywhere I turned today, I was given options. Some days, I don’t do options very well, so I stalled the lines while I pondered.
*sigh*
I’m still not sure my decisions were the correct ones.
Yah. The decision for me now is between Grey-Poupon and horseradish, or Ingelhoffer mustards?... Swiss or American cheese?... Beer or wine?...
Anoreth and Bill looked offended, but they’ll eat it or be hungry. (And have it come back tomorrow, too!) I need to dish up in a few minutes - boys have Scouts tonight.
Horeseradish!!!!
The first is difficult, but it’s always swiss for me...
OK...the guys have it: Grey poupon and horseradish and Swiss cheese!
Now...the drink...I think I’ll have some of TC’s wine...
;o]
