whew!

i seem to have made it through the week!

wednesday:

publishing my latest podcast episode while staying home to take care of mr smear while gd went to see a doctor, arriving at work and being dragged into a corporate values workshop with the VP of our division (which was interesting), get a little work done and then driving off to the cemetary for a cousin's funeral, whose kids arrived fifteen minutes late. it was a long ceremony (although not as long as the orthodox), and i "joked" with my mom afterwards that it seems that the most physical exercise i'm getting lately is carrying coffins and shovelling sand onto graves...

i returned to work for a bit before rushing off to the temple council meeting, eventually getting home really tired.

thursday:

"volunteering", but otherwise just working a full day. except for the part where i picked up my new spectacles, ran into an associate of my nephew's and the CPO of the company i interviewed for alongside my present employer, got back to my computer and tried the spectacles on and... i was PISSED. it hurt my eyes and my brain, i couldn't read a thing... i went back, bitched and moaned and wanting to just give them back, but the receptionist convinced me to give them a try in ten minute intervals and i think it's coming right.

a good finish for the day, coming home and relaxing, starting glass

friday:

starting the day off with high fives, a couple of meetings and an interesting lunch, and being called out of a meeting for a plumbing emergency - the geyser's corroded, because our landlord doesn't maintain her shit, and there's a lot of work to be done. fortunately gd noticed it in time to clear our wardrobe!

un-high-fiving when my dev environment mysteriously broke down, struggling to get it sorted but failing to make any more progress before leaving to pick up mr smear and take him to the temple. a generally good experience, but when we were on our way out he became tantrum-y (he was clearly tired), and getting him to the car was unpleasant. he was out by the time we got home, and friday night dinner was simple and good.

unbreakable was amazing, split was amazing, glass was just incredible.

saturday:

it's 1.30am, i've gotten my podcast site sorted out (i've been having minor issues for days), and i've made some headway on a fun tool i've been talking about building for a few weeks now. *deep breath* here comes the weekend!
