time well spent.

ugh.

I hate being on-call for work. I was starting to get used to it and was figuring out ways of being able to do it w/o letting it completely interfere w/ my life but… Pretty much the only other person in my dept. who can take the on-call stuff is in the process of moving and has no internet connection etc. Which just pishes me off b/c it’s not as though I’m not in the middle of my own set of moving related errands (see below). Glancing out the window, I see that the skies are blue w/ intermittent clouds. Could be a nice day outside — but I wouldn’t know b/c the phone has on-call cell has rung three times before noon already! Can’t a man eat breakfast and have a cup of coffee? Combine all of the above w/ the fact that A will be out of town this week and I’m still mega-exhausted from this past, super-hellish week and I’m in extra-strength bitch mode. Grr…

Anyhoo: We’re in moving mode at this point. The date is still some 3 weeks away but we’re not taking any chances. W/ my work schedule and the fact that A will be out of town for one of those weeks puts us in an awkward spot. I don’t want to be cramming shit into boxes at the last minute. Consequently, our joint looks like this:

moving! moving! moving!
moving! moving! moving!
moving! moving! moving!
moving! moving! moving!
moving! moving! moving!

Anyway… Where was I? /rant
