What do you mean, I don't have to come to work on Monday?

It's mildly ironic that for the last two days, it's started out foggy and turned into a nice day. Today it's supposed to rain, and the day is starting off sunny.

I sorted out three of the four current work headaches by palming one off on somebody else, having a cancellation come up so I could fix another one, and confirming and ordering food for the third. The fourth is still being impossible, but it's Friday before a long weekend and I don't think it's going to be utterly awful if I can't fix it by the end of the day (she says, hoping it won't come back and bite her next week...).

This morning the radio was playing music when it turned itself on, and I was all excited about it until I woke up enough to actually listen. It was an Outback Steakhouse commercial.

I don't know how I made myself late this morning, but I did. I didn't realize it until I was brushing my teeth and looked at the clock and lo, it was 7:58. I'm usually on the way out the door at 7:58. I left in such a hurry that I forgot to unplug my phone and bring it with me, so anybody who calls me today is going to have to wait until Tuesday if it's job-related. Shame on me, I know; these days everybody is supposed to be perpetually reachable and instantly on top of everything. Sorry, I'm still human, and therefore subject to doing things like forgetting my phone.

I had to go to the grocery store yesterday and was about to be annoyed with the Halloween candy everywhere until I remembered it's October. All right, I'll give them that. At least it wasn't Christmas candy (yet). Come Halloween, the Christmas candy will have been out for at least a week.

So passeth Friday. If I knew what the Latin for Friday was, I could say it in Latin, but I don't, so I can't.

Hey, did I offer to give you a ride to Nav & Enoch's wedding? Do you have a ride? Do you need one?

[dchenes.livejournal.com]

No, no, and I wouldn't mind if you're offering! I thought you might have to get there early to do huppah-related stuff, so I was planning on taking the train.

I do have to arrive early to set up the Huppah. But Getting a ride with us will still probably be easier and take less time for you than taking the holdiay schedule of the commuter rail. So if you want, call me tonight and we'll make plans. I'll be home. Not going to services tonight. Cell is turned off and charging today.
