Another day at work

Interesting day.

At work, I mentioned that I was available to help wherever needed.  Then things got interesting.  Suddenly, I had four complex report folders and a validation to do that all need completion by Wednesday.  I average 1.5 complex folders a day typically.  Lots of other drama ensued, but long story short, it about sums up my position.

To add to the day, a huge snow storm is predicted tomorrow.  I might have to miss my soccer game because of it :(  I'll try to not let that happen.

I sense that things will get rough at work the first several months I'm gone.  Shifts in power at the lab is something I've had to deal with about three times now, so I'm pretty sure it will happen the same way again except this time it's someone very much not like me in the middle.  It's actually kind of fun imagining the several different ways the drama will continue.  It's a lot like a bad reality show episode :)

My lovely wife purchased me my first professional massage.  The masseuse did a really good job on my neck.  Not surprisingly, when I inquired, it was confirmed that aside from a little tension in my trapezious and rhomboids, I was in pretty good shape.  They kept asking if I wanted to schedule another appointment and I had the best excuse...Um, I'll be out of the country in less than a month.  Thank you oh so much!  It was perfect that I had it today given how work was.

On the Georgia front, today she got to fire some weapons!  She was disappointed in how poor her accuracy was.  I told her it's just a good excuse for her to get that pistol she's always wanted and practice a lot :)  Sounds like a future date for both of us to me :)
