Meant to get to bed early last night, and didn't manage it. Again. So now I'm going to sleepwalk through the day. Again.

The impending job interview has sucked whatever motivation I might have had for doing my job this week. Which wasn't much, granted; life in the grounds dept has been going downhill since before New Boss was hired. All I can think about now is I'll be out of here in a couple more weeks. And I know I shouldn't be getting my hopes up like this, so soon, but gods above and below, I want out. I don't know what I'll do if I don't get the job (besides being terribly angry and crushed). Play catch-up, I guess. I've put projects off all season, because I've been told all season that the job would be coming open "soon", and I'd get it. I'd really hate to have to spend next season still on the grounds crew, doing everything I put off this year.

And I'm sure that part of the hamster wheel in my brain comes from not enough rest lately. There's an open afternoon in my schedule next Friday; I've already pencilled in a nap.

By didn't get home until 9:30 last night. Robyn brought home the new printer at 4:30, and had asked him to stay and get it installed. He called me after 5, saying he thought he'd be another hour. After 7, the cavalry calls, looking for him, because he hadn't called them, either. (By the way, thanks for checking on him, hon.) So I call the studio, talk to him, and send the cavalry out to help him fix it. Much thanks to John and Cammie, for going and figuring out what the problem was, and finally sending him home.

And my silly self stayed up takling with him last night, 'cuz I hadn't seen him much the past couple of days. Probaby would have stayed up later, but I started falling asleep in the middle of sentences.

I know there's an addition to the schedule I posted earlier in theweek, something in October, but I just can't remember right now. I'll ask By later, and fix the schedule then.

Brief knitting report

The upside to being up so late last night is I got a whole inch done on the Lily of the Valley shawl.

Saturday morning silliness

( Revocation of American Independence )

In case you're wondering...

I was working, in fact. I'm taking a break now, and resting my back. Spent waaaay too much time on inner campus with the Tennant. (For those who've not heard me pontificate about this particular machine, it's a diesel-powered vacuum, about the size of a VW Bug, but now as cute. And noisy. And smelly. But it beats cleaning up 500 people's worth of spilled popcorn and crap with a broom.)

Still breaking. Not motivated enough to do anything else, will probably be here until lunch. Changed the theme on my journal again...this one seems to handle quizzes and large pictures better. Hopefully, it'll load faster from home, too.

Screw productivity. It's too windy to spray, I can't prune because New Boss hasn't had the dumpster emptied yet (and it's been overflowing all week), campus is quiet, and Shop Grunt left at 11, because the vehicle schedule is foobared AGAIN, and he's got to come in tomorrow, poor schmuck.

I hereby declare the rest of the afternoon to be string time.

Must go read Says God. Sooooo funny.
