Today's snicker: my work computer spell check just tried to change "motor vehicle" to "mother fucker." Sure would make traffic court more interesting!
"your honor, the listed suspect was observed driving his mother fucker at an excessive rate of speed. When he lost control of the mother fucker, it wrapped itself around a mother fucking tree! Fire & EMS had to cut him out of the mother fucker."

Yep. Moon's full. I've had my lunatic quota for the day. 90 minutes to go...

Just had a very strange conversation in the potty. I was in a stall, doing my thing, and I heard a cheerful voice say "hi, Mickey!" Um, hi. (Checking to make sure my door IS closed) There was a giggle, followed by "I figured it was you- you're the only person I know with tie dyed tennis shoes!" Ok, she could see my feet. I have no idea who it was, but I'm glad I brightened their day.

Here are the shoes in question

is cold & rainy, but at least it's not snowing. The office is slowly losing its collective mind as we try working the new computer system. We keep being told "oh, that'll be fixed in the live version." Great, but unless it works in the beta, we don't know what to enter & where. At least I have a job & crappy benefits.
Chicken noodle soup for dinner tonight!

Last week's training showed that our job is being automated and most of us will probably be gone by the end of the year. Possibly sooner if the backbiting snipes don't knock it off. one of my favorite coworkers & I got bitched out for having a cheerful conversation while there was nothing going on. We've agreed to try not speaking to anyone unless it's work related and are waiting to see how long it takes us to get bitched at for that.

...Got signed in and had to answer an email explaining why I took my laptop home (to watch a training module) and was told that I had to put in for V time or stay over to make up the 30 minutes I was gone. I was just going to take a short lunch, but whatever. Did my work & training, now I'm going home to deal with Mom & the cat.

*warbling slightly off key* it's just another manic Monday...
My office is technically closed to the public today, but I'm still going in. I didn't want to use my pitiful amount of vacation time to stay home. At least I'll be the only one there in my unit & can be as grumpy as I want to.
Now, I'm off to get ham biscuits for breakfast before I head in.

And we've just been told that a nut is threatening to come down and kill us all because someone in the Telephone Reports Unit pissed him off. I was told to hit the panic button & politely excuse myself to go hide in the back until an officer arrives. We just tested the panic buttons. They don't seem to work. This should be fun...

Today's useless information nugget: the KY State Police code for disregarding a stop sign is 00111.

Anybody else got something to share?

Well, it's morning. we're having a 5 hour training session on reports we already know how to write/enter into the system. The class is being taught by a woman who spends most of her time taking cute selfies & tottering around in ridiculously high heeled shoes. I'm not sure if this is going to be better or worse than my usual shift at the public service window.

And, thanks to Mom stressing me out, all of my autoimmune symptoms are flaring again. Ugh.

Turns out I'm sick again/still. Boss was snotty about me calling in today. I told her that I could try to get to the office & share my fever & stomach bug with everyone if my presence was that critical. I'm out of sick & vacation time, so today was an unpaid day off. Did she really think I made the decision lightly?

Back to the grind. Here are pictures of my desk toys & magnets, just for the heck of it. That's a dried flower bouquet at the back, if anyone is wondering.

I reluctantly came in to work today. Should've stayed home another day to let the meds work. But I'm here & my work BDF & I ordered Cracker Barrel chicken & dumplings for lunch. And a piece of chocolate pecan pie.

Today was an ok day. I felt useful at work, got some good books downloaded to the Kindle, bought some fill-in groceries for the rest of the week (came in under budget, too!), picked up my meds, and Boo Kitteh was super cuddly this evening. I'll take it!
