Poor planning

Morning … Hope that your Tuesday is off to a good start and that it’s a great day for all. 

Yesterday afternoon I was bored and started to craft an update post, in the middle of that chaos ensued and I had to abandon the post and concentrate on work.  It was just plain nuts and all from one person who knew they had a deadline but failed to plan properly, thinking that exceptions would be made.  Nope, that’s not how the world works.  I was working well past 5p and Mora & Rudy heard me get up from my desk, they met me at the door and we all went upstairs to start our evening. 

I was a bit frazzled and I couldn’t eat what I wanted to because it would have taken too long to make and I wanted to eat sooner rather than later.  The cats were hungry as well so I took care of them first, because that’s what I do. 

Watched a little YouTube video and then switched over to a documentary about the opioid crisis on HBO, it was in two parts and it took some time.  I was more than half way through so it finished up pretty quickly.  Then I moved on to some corruption series.  Watched and learned how the Tommy Lee & Pamela Anderson tape got into circulation.  Just an affirmation that I’ve stuck by for years, never film anything you don’t want the world to see.  Learned all about the creep behind Girls Gone Wild and how he abused women.  According to the film he’s a fugitive here in the US and lives in Mexico.  He’s still rich.  There are more episodes to watch but that’s all I was able to watch last night before I turned the lights out. 

Brushed Mora & Rudy, passed out cat nip and played with them a little bit.  Mostly provided attention, cuddling and hugging to Mora.  Had to take a work call and sat and watched a computer not do what I needed it to, finally gave up on that idea and said it will be there in the morning. 

That was my Monday, glad it’s behind me now.  Today the boss man is out having some surgery done.  He didn’t tell us what he is doing but I have a suspicion.  It’s a quick in and out thing, but he has to be on bed rest for the week.  That means were done with him for this week.  He canceled our bullshit meetings, if they were so important how come we can skip a week when it’s convenient for him but not for us?  It goes to my point that we meet too damn much and could do it every other week but I’m just a grunt who isn’t listened to.  I’ve got to run a meeting that he normally runs on Tuesday afternoons.  Unless something changes, right now it looks like it will be fairly quick.  Outside of that not much on my agenda for the day.  Hopefully, after the day I had yesterday things are calm today. 

Tomorrow is my Friday and I hope that it moves along swiftly and uneventfully as well.  I am eager to ditch my working responsibilities and enjoy another long weekend.  I hope that I accomplish all of my intended tasks that I have set for myself.  Time away from the computer is one of them.  I have to pick back up my on call duties on Saturday so I won’t be able to save the news of what went wrong while I was gone for 2 days, but I hope that my in box isn’t flooded.  I never have high hopes in that regard because something usually always goes wrong and I have to deal with it when I get back.  Just typing that brought me more work now. 

I suppose it’s back to work I go, so much for rest and relaxation.  Kind of wish there was a Thanksgiving break just as long as the Christmas break that college kids gets but that it extended to all of the US.  Holidays, what a nutty time of the year.  It’s super cold here today but were supposed to warm a bit come tomorrow.  Crazy weather, I’m not a huge fan of cold but I’d like something consistent. 

Thanks for stopping by, talk with you peeps later.
