grammarwomanAll I've got between me and the weekend is finishing up this damned yearly review. I am so damned tempted to copy and paste everything I put down last year and see if they notice. (Because waiting for the code elves to finish it by leaving it out on my desk hasn't worked so far.) My reluctance to finish this is buttressed by several reasons: of course I think I'm fabulous, so are you going to trust my opinion on how well I think I did? The boss doesn't seem inclined to take my word for anything else, so why should I care about this? The biggest reason still is that I wasn't supposed to still be here - where's my shiny new job?
Speaking of shiny new jobs -- the husband's interview went very well. Thanks for all the well-wishes. We should hear something on Monday. (Please, oh please!) We're trying very hard not to jinx the chickens before their teeth are hatched...or something.
In other random good news, I won a contest I didn't even enter! A while ago, I ordered slippers from Treadders.com (really comfy booties - the Emperor loves them - highly recommended for all small sproggen). At the beginning of September I got an email from them, announcing a contest for their customers from the past few months, and all we had to do was see if our randomly assigned number matched the MegaMillions results. Whaddya know, I won! Free shipping on 10 free pairs of booties, one from each size they offer, with a bunch of different designs. Granted, the Emperor will only fit into a couple more sizes, but we can stock up for the next kid.
Dammit, where are my code elves? *sigh* Back to the review.
