an extra-special day

well, it started rather badly. i woke up after a long dream about my alarm going off, to find out that it was 8am already.

BUGGRIT.

i made it out in what i thought was time for the bus, but was miserably, horribly wrong. and i waited half an hour at the bus shelter.

i got to the base at 9am. saw our team leader for a few seconds, and got down to some work-type things. it took HOURS for my damned eyes to open. i did enjoy being back on base - only thing i hated was being in uniform. BOILING.

we had a meeting, where i've been informed that i'm to retain command, albeit shared command, for the next while.

i had lunch with the mongoose, and we talked a lot while fending off this really creepy guy who doesn't do hints too well. the mongoose agreed with me about doing a penny arcade-style army comic, so when i eventually got back to my office, i got to work on that - it came out rather well! despite lacking artistic ability!

the dog arrived on base around the same time we got back, and we passed through the DBA section for some assistance. and got told to come back sunday. nice.

we spent the afternoon working, and our commander kept popping in to nose around. we couldn't figure that out, and decided he was scoping the new office out before moving in.
we were mistaken. we went to visit him, and discovered that he'd converted our old office into something really nice - worthy of a high-ranking commander. i'm impressed.

had a slap-dash supper, then i came home. and promptly crashed. i was woken up around 22.30 to work, and we found that i made some horrible errors (while coding blind, mind you), so we worked on it till about 1am. i hate this job. at least i'm getting a weekend - the woman i'm working with can't continue until sunday, so there's nothing *I* can do. so i don't care.

love my new attitude.

i got an email from SB, more with the mixed messages. i can't figure out where i stand, at ALL.

also - moonflake!! how the hell do i add links to this page???

i guess i'm gonna go back to bed soon.
