Because apparently I forgot I have a blog… \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
Here is what I have been doing:<\/p>\n
1) Playing enough Canasta on Pogo.com that Gene wondered if I was playing to escape talking to him. Whoops. No, it is just relaxing. Sometimes I win, sometimes I lose, sometimes people accuse me of cheating. I finally made it to Intermediate ranking. YAY.<\/p>\n
2) Watched the first 16 (?) episodes of the ABC show Revenge on Hulu. By the time I figured it was finally on Hulu, we only had a few days to watch them. I watched the first 8 or so by myself and Gene joined me for the rest. He’s hooked. Hee hee.<\/p>\n
3) Working, of course. Nothing interesting, just the usual. The job and I have established a love\/hate relationship. Some days I hate it, other days I’m OK with it. I never love it, but that’s OK. There’s always Canasta.<\/p>\n
4) Debating how to ‘spend’ my vacation time. I can ‘carry over’ up to 40 hours (1 week) of vacation per year, and the year resets on my work anniversary (in July). I’m over 40 hours now so I need to spend a little so I don’t lose it. Ideally I’d like to go to spend a long weekend when Gene travels to Atlanta next month but one of my dingle berry coworkers has already asked for the Friday off. Oh well. And at some point I need to go to Indiana because I miss my family. And also our friends we visited in Germany have moved back to America so we’re going to visit them.<\/p>\n
5) Took the dogs to the vet last Saturday. How is it that 40 minutes of their time (plus assorted medications) is roughly equal to a week of my salary?<\/p>\n
Coming up this week: 1 month follow up appointment after LASIK, shrinky-dink appointment (I shall call him Dr. Awesome), and dermatologist appointment (because I’m worth it. And also completely disgusting). I don’t think I have asked off for the LASIK appointment, whoops.<\/p>\n
So, that’s what is new with me. Hope all is well with you as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
