It’s been an interesting week at work. One of the main people has been out all week on vacation, and another was gone 3 of the 5 days. Tuesday morning we discovered that the voicemail system had gone kaflooey and they didn’t make it out to fix it until the following afternoon. The service guy […]
The email has been sitting in my box for two weeks, and prior to that it was another week or two of knowing they were expecting *something* before I sent the query off to the board to try to narrow down what, exactly, they were looking for. Write a bio about yourself, they said. But […]
In the continuing saga of random beeping and mechanical failures at the office, the infrequent beeping continued yesterday, along with the occasional blip in network and phone access. It wasn’t so much a problem most of the time, except when the phone system decided to hang up on one of the more senior partners while […]
On work day mornings, Richard and I have a tendency to eat breakfast together while reading. It’s a nice way to catch up on random reading - either recently received magazines, or something off our well stocked shelves.

A few months ago my company notified us that as of April we would be starting a new work schedule. Basically we work 8 1/2 hours Monday through Thursday, 8 hours on Friday, and then get every fourth Friday off. It’s not technically a free day because we do end up working the hours over […]
One thing on my list that I did not get done yesterday was to zip off to the store and buy all the parts to make trifle. And the reason I needed to make trifle is that today was the annual ladies’ tea and I agreed to make trifle, even though I have never made […]
We have been waiting for this day for a few weeks - or at least I have been waiting, that is. I really could care less about the opening night for the next installment of Star Wars because I know that that movie will make me cringe and I have no desire to be there […]
I tried to sleep in this morning, I really did. But Sebastian has lately decided that wandering around downstairs while randomly yelling at the top of his overdeveloped lungs is simply not good enough, and what is far more fun and effective is to come into the bedroom, jump onto the bed, walk heavily over […]
