Jun. 3rd, 2019 08:53 amThe makers of Advil are right up there on my list of people eligible for sainthood right now. Because the T was running charter buses instead of T buses this weekend, I couldn't get the 60 lb of kitty litter (2 in granny cart, 1 over my shoulder) on the bus, so I had to walk to Coolidge Corner and then walk home from Washington Square, and then I went diving and added 22 lb of lead. And bailed after about half an hour in the water. And knocked my left ear for a loop again, although at least now I know what to call it when it does that (reverse ear squeeze). Gotta go to the shop this week and talk to Dan about certification at the end of August. End of June is too soon and end of July is the weekend right after the faculty retreat on Friday, so I'll already be wiped out before Saturday.
Performance review day today. It's nice that my boss hates them as much as I do, because that means they tend to be "Are we still both happy? Good. Got goals? Have at them." And that is how this one went, with a side order of "Yes, we'll send you to manager training, you should have professional development."
I finally found Uncle Shawn and Bill and the Almost Entirely Unexpected Adventure on Amazon last week, so it should be arriving tomorrow. Even if it isn't a brilliant book, I still want to find out for myself. (It's got a badger and four depressed llamas in it; how bad can it be?) Also, The Godfather is a shorter book than I thought it was, but so far it's not bad. I finally saw the movie a couple of months ago and wondered about the book, so I'm reading it.
Dad's latest stint in the hospital as of last Thursday ended today. I wonder whether the nephrologist and the cardiologist had to arm wrestle to let him out. But anyway, now that he's out, he has to stay out, because I said so. So there.
