Work stuff

So DG just called in sick again today. Strep, her doctor says. Possible. Who am I to say? But damn, the woman misses a lot of work.

Her calling in sick brings the following in to play:
(1) she calls in to talk to Donna later this morning, to get her ass chewed over the phone for letting things dry out this weekend
(2) she doesn't get to come in and make up time over the holiday break
(3) I end up coming in twice to water (so I'm going to be a bit cranky with her next week)
(4) her come-in-and-work-on-the-weekends priviledges in general are revoked
(5) second strike--third one is the trip to Dr G's office to be fired


Just what I needed today.

Although, at the risk of being politically incorrect and insensitive to someone's handicap, it'll be nice to have another day in here, without listening to the constant coughing and wheezing.

Trying to cheer myself up by thinking of string...

Got one square done last night, nothing fancy. So, I'm up to 70-odd plus one. And, Cammie, I'm still working on a pattern for a square done in that yarn you liked on Sunday. I'll get back to you when I figure something out.

Am 2/3 done with the second dragonscale gauntlet. Probably could have finished it had I knitted another hour last night, but knitting is trumped by quality time with the husband. Brought it with me, in hopes of getting in a round or two during my lunch break.

One more thing...

....and then I'll stop spamming everyone's friends page, I promise:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY IARRAIDH!!!!!

Enjoy your day, sweetie.
