dragonlady7I have decided to run away.
Well, only for the 'weekend'. I am going to leave from work tonight and drive to my parents' in Melrose, where I will stay until such time as I see fit to come back.
Well, ok, no, I'll stay until late Wednesday/early Thursday, and then will drive back in time to be at work at 11 am on Thanksgiving morning. So there.
So how bad d'yall think traffic will be in Albany at 5:00 on Thanksgiving morning?
Anyhow. it's just worthwhile.
Today I have a mini-day-off. Instead of coming in at 11 and leaving at 7:30, I'm coming in at 4 and leaving at... probably 7:30. I agreed to do this before I realized what day it was. But, as it amounts to giving me the day to run errands, I'm not complaining, although you can bet I will be if they decide to make me stay later. "But it's busy and there's a flight delay!" "Fuck you, I have a six-hour drive to make after this!" ... No, not a good thing at all.
Am currently sitting on Z's mom's couch with Bert the beagle's head in my lap. Earlier she climbed over me, laptop and all. She absolutely could not have slept in one more hour. Dammit, because I could have, and I'll be getting little enough sleep these next couple of days.
Oh, I got home last night and Z infuriatingly informed me that he's bought 2/3 of my Christmas present. WTF? 2/3? What's that even mean? I am infuriatingly intrigued.
I am making good progress on the homemade portion of my gifts, from the composition aspect, but I really am going to wish I knew how to use Indesign from the layout aspect. Urgh.
I also have an exceedingly amusing post brewing about the End of the World, based on a conversation with a customer yesterday, but at the moment I am awake too early to be coherent about it.
