So I got the word today that the coast was all clear to move in to my new office. Damn, that was a project in it’s self. I suddenly realized that I have more stuff than I thought. Still only 2 personal items. Everything else belongs to the company.
The person who had my office before me was a bit of a slob. I found hair and dust everywhere. It’s not as clean as I would like but I made the best of it. In the words of Sheldon Cooper “PURELL…PURELL…PURELL”.
I am pretty well settled. I need a couple things and got permission to order them though the proper channels. Some stuff I was able to get on my own but other things have to go through a particular vendor and I have to depend on another person.
The best part is my new office came with a vibrator. Yeah but it’s not exactly what you think. It’s a pillow and you put it towards the small of your back and then flip the on switch. Good vibrations await. I stuck it in a drawer. I don’t need a pillow or a vibrator at work, but then again there just might be a day when I wish I had either or both!
My days are hectic at best. The clock struck 5 and I wasn’t even aware of it. Days just go by in minutes. Especially time away from the boss, that goes the fastest.
I am fairly certain all of the products for my installation have arrived, I’m giving it a couple more days before I pull the trigger. Looks like the week of the 30th I will be on the road again. I will be explaining my situation and how I’d like to come home, even if it’s only for the weekend but I think I will be gone for 2 weeks. Ideally I would like to do the big install, come home for a week or two and then leave again. Looking at it from a cost point of view it makes sense to keep me there for 2 weeks. Time will tell what happens. I think that 2 weeks probably will be pushing it, to be safe 3 weeks would be best and I could always come home early if I got done.
My biggest concerns about leaving are Big Boy and Jumper getting their medicine. Big Boy needs it to live. Jumper needs it so he won’t puke. They are brothers and it shows. I was telling Jumper the other night that Big Boy is going down hill and I wasn’t sure how much longer he would be around. It was just us two in my room. He snuggled with me for a little bit and then he demanded to be let out. I found him the next morning by his brothers side, just spending time and hanging out. I told him enjoy the time you have together and take care of him as best as you can. Okay I’m getting a lump in my throat.
So I’ve asked my brother if he wouldn’t mind stopping by to help give the kids their medicine. Damn, you would have though I was asking him for a million dollars. He doesn’t mind stopping by once and a while but not every night that is too much of an imposition on him. Never mind the fact that he works on the other side of town where I live. It’s not asking a whole lot and wouldn’t take more than 5 minutes once he got here. They are both easy to pill, as long as you tilt their heads up, otherwise they will spit the stuff out.
Crap, it’s getting late. I have more to say but will finish later. I’ve got to relax and get ready for FRIDAY. Lots to do tomorrow. My doctors office called my partner and asked me to phone them. I suspect my results are back from the stool cultures. Hopefully, all is well but I am on edge. Plus I don’t know how they got my partners phone number mixed up with mine. I will get that fixed tomorrow.
Take care, stay cool and be well. I will talk with you peeps later! A special hi to Will if your reading this.

Doesn't the company have a janitor to clean in the office?
Wow 2 or 3 weeks is a long time to be away from home in one shot, I hope it all goes well Jer!
Yes they have a cleaning service, it's provided by the building. They really don't do much outside of vaccuming and taking out the trash.
When I worked in the same building before at night one of the cleaning guys was banging one of the cleaning girls in the men's bathroom. They also did crack together.
The building is all 1st class and prestige but sadly not all of the people that work in this building are first class.
I've got no problem cleaning my area and keeping it clean. I just wish everyone else played by these rules. It would make life a little easier. :)
