I have really lost track of the days lately, I don't even go by days of the week anymore, but by classes...today is my busy class/work day. But I'm excited about the end of this week because I get paid! WOO!
Good so far. The senior partner who is flying in to fire my boss got delayed, so I don't know when it will happen. It's sort of hard to concentrate, as I know it's going to happen and I'm kind of clueless as to what will happen next.
It's starting to sound like they might be secong guessing. I mean, if you had firing abilities, and someone is obviously below standards, wouldn't you want the acid out of the company asap? If they can't get to him, is there anyone else they can have travel to do it? Unless you're in a small company, maybe that's different.
I guess I"m just used to the military ways. We had a squadron commander who failed an inspection. Soon after(like, the next week) the commander above him found out about all kinds of corrupt things going on. Not direct actions by the commander, but things he should have taken care of as a leader. 2 days later he was gone. As in, moved to a piss-ass base in BFE and no promotion/reenlistment options ever. Sent to finish his sentance in purgatory. We don't play around! Lol I think it's the mentality of 'if you screw us over, we will screw you over back'.

Cal- I feel like they've been dragging the firing process out. I hope it goes smoothly though!
I'm just kind of blah today. I started my last class on Monday and I am realizing it is a LOT of work in just 4 weeks. Large assignments and two quizzes each week. I am trying to maintain the thought that this is the last class. Then its over!
I have a To Do list that is literally 2 pages front and back. I mean granted some things I don't have to get done immediately (Send out Christmas Cards, Go to the DMV to change my voter registration and get a NC DL), but I do need to Get said Christmas cards so I don't have to write them all out at once, I do need to email my teacher that I'll be late tomorrow, and I need to walk our neighbors dog. Ack.. I love making lists because it makes me feel super good about myself to be able to cross things off but I got kind of overwhelmed when I saw all the things I need to do.
And I've gained 3 lbs! Ahhhh!!! only 3, but it's scary!!
I just finished up my class posting for this week now I need to start my paper that is due on Sunday. Normally I will wait until the day of. Yeah I put things like that off. I am heading to the gym with a friend tonight and then it is off for Wine Wed. YAY!
I have done a crap ton this morning. Sent out several not very fun emails this morning (boo) Then I had a client meeting with my field project student group, the clients loved our project...but because I had to work late the night before for my actual job my student group threw me under the bus making me run around get stuff together and then decided that they didn't need it. THAT makes me mad. I sent about 5 emails out to them last night asking them if they needed this, and what they had talked about in their meeting that afternoon...silence. ...Texted them.... silence.. this morning after running around getting all my work together they tell me I didn't need to do it.
F-YOU!
Anyway, I have a paper to write and I brought my work laptop home and I have to work on some projects. =(
I'm trying to get our Thanksgiving plans nailed down, and FI is being less than helpful. Apparently if they want to go out of town over the weekend after Thanksgiving they have to put in for leave.
Any other weekend, even a 3 day weekend like the one coming up, if they want to travel and it's within 480 miles, they just have to put in their form that lets the command know where they'll be and they can leave at soon as 4pm hits on Friday and don't have to use up their leave. But for holiday weekends they have to take their paid leave. I also don't know if he has the Friday after Thanksgiving off (he works in the offices, and if they're not going to be open he doesn't need to go in), so we may just go to my grandmother's for the day on Thursday, which I hope means we can leave Weds. night.
FI doesn't want to put in for leave because we're still waiting on the re-class boards to meet and get back to him about that. Which I totally get, you don't want to be seen as a slacker when stuff like that is going down, but it makes things very difficult to plan. FI may also have to take a PT test tomorrow that he had scheduled for next Friday, so he is freaking out a little.
Cal--I hope they get there soon or figure out a way to get rid of this joker and that they aren't having second thoughts about it.
Shay, I kinda was worried about that. But they're all international, and this is the soonest they were able to come back to let him go - they wanted to be here so it wasn't over the phone while I was in the office (it has been only him and me here). They wanted to get someone else in the office before they let him go so it wasn't just me alone, and the girl had to give 2 weeks notice so she just started on Monday. So it really is the soonest they could do it, but yeah, it feels like it's dragging on, and it's soooo painfully awkward.

Wooooowwww. That's a heck of a list you're gonna have. I get why you like making it though :) I always feel accomplished when I get my checklist completed I lost about 5 lbs. since last month and it's really starting to worry me :/ I think it's just the midsemester stressors though...at least I hope so. I don't like my weight fluctuating like this.

You said class posting and it made me wonder...do you take an online class? If so how is it? I've been wanting to sign up for one but I don't know quite what to expect.
Zelda! If you see this you have a PM back!!! :] Sorry so late, my ipod doesn't let me send PMs.. idk why. But I didn't want to start a new thread to get your attention, so hopefully you see this ) haha
