beansideIt's Saturday, and Boodle let me sleep til my alarm (which I forogot to shut off). Of course, then she wouldn't let me go back to sleep. I wonder if she thinks she's helping? I have absolutely no idea, but she would not let me drift back off. So, up I got. Maybe I can sleep in til 7am on Sunday! We shall see what kitty shall permit.
Today, we have one game planned, the greek mythology analog module, called Odyssey of the Dragonlords. I'm looking forward to it, as the group is in a labyrinth. There are some fun things in the labyrinth with them, so I'm looking forward to it. It should be super entertaining. That's at 2pm. Hopefully, the nice people from safelite come early to fix the crack in my windshield. Their window is 8-12:30, so fingers crossed.
Our new phones are coming from Tmobile today. UPS says it'll be between 1-3. I'm hoping it comes early, so that I'm available to sign for them. If not, I'll just interrupt game and go grab them in. My sister will probably be out in the living room, but I'd rather she hold the dog, and I gett he box. I will do the herculean task of waiting until after game to open the box. IT IT will suck, but I'll do it, even though I'll be doing grabby hands at the box. We already got Otterboxes for them. I sure hope this helps some of my and Jess' battery woes. I'm looking forward to getting it all set up and learning about some of the photo tips and tricks.
I just want it to take really good pictures.
We're down to the point in our countdown to the Alaska cruise, (54 days) that every number seems momentous. It's ticking closer and I am in no way shape or form prepared. I mean, I'm prepared. I have warm clothes and pretty dresses, and all of that. But internally I'm not prepared. My anxiety does a thing where it kicks in before vacation and doesn't let up until we're actually there. The month before Disney, I was all over the place. Let me say up front that I want to go, and I know it'll be an amazing time. It's just that it's a big change, and sometimes my ADHD brain gets very change resistant. So while I'm going "Oh this is going to be great," Anxiety and ADHD are double teaming me until I also am looking at the countdown with trepidation.
A good chunk of it is Yoda's boarding. I didn't think that we were going to have to board him, and I was unprepared. I had planned to get him acclimated to the boarding place, but instead, he'll probably have one visit before we leave, so I am nervous. If he flunks this eval, then he's going to be boarded at a vet. I also need to get him on a flea and tick regimen. So I'm going to do that. When he goes back for his next visit, I'll buy the flea and tick med and give him a dose. Thank god, he reacted well to the flu shot. No side effects or crying.
We got him set up for his grooming appt next week. That'll give a little time between the two shots.
Then, we'll get him groomed at the end of April, and he'll be good to go for his boarding.
Yesterday was busy at work. I spent most of it working to get people in for their appts. I got a lot of shit done, which was gratifying. They seem to be letting me do what I want to right now as far as work. Most of the day, I hung out in a non-available status, and did what I do best. I played Jenga with our schedules, moving patients to make a hole for an add on and then filing it. It was a good day for that.
I asked J. who said that yes, there are plans to announce it, though he wasn't sure when. I hope it's soon. Though that will have its own issues, because they never announced the job opening. It never appeared on our weekly list of open positions. It was on the website, if you looked, but how many people actually do that. So, I'm hoping it doesn't seem like they're just ramming me through. I mean, that is 100% what happened, but still. Hopefully people are cool about it.
One of the calls I took yesterday, I had to send an email about. They updated the inbox and added me to the add on inbox just in time for me to get my own email. Perfect timing, and very confusing for a moment.
I got to take the lead on the add ons today, so I was using that power to get people in, and then I replied to the coworker's emails, which is a pretty strong indication that I'm no longer just a PASII, as they do not have access to that account. I now get email updates when things come through for fuck ups that coworkers have made as well. And I got to see a bit of the pushback that people give management over said fuck ups. I would definitely not talk back to a manager the way they do. I mean, just own your fuck up and get over it. Fix it and we're all good. There's no need to come back and flounce about how the system led you astray. (Also because J. is petty and will pull that call and see that you totally ignored the warning. No one likes getting errors that you need to fix, but you do it and you move on, and reply with a facepalm and a "I can't believe I missed this. Sorry."
The rest of the weekend looks good. A restful Sunday with Prophecy of the Nine Omens in the early evening. It's going to be a good weekend.
Monday, my new pendant is coming. Since I looked at some Hawaiian merchandise, I'm now getting ads for all things Hawaiian, and one of those was for jewelry. There was this gorgeous silver Plumeria pendant. It's a little expensive, so I wasn't going to get it, but then I got promoted, and so I got it as a little celebration present for me.
I don't know why I fell so in love with it, but I really love it. I got a different chain for it, as my fat neck will not fit an 18" chain, which is what comes with it. I need at least 24".
Okay, I suppose I should get myself together for the windshield dude. Maybe I'll finish off my orientation first. Everyone have an outstanding Saturday!
