Mishaps and other haps

I just checked the site and Tiger will be unleashed upon the world at 6 PM today. Hold on to your balls.

I have been crouching, waiting to pounce for a couple of weeks. I might be buying an iMac soon.

Well, it’s all relative. She probably does everything pretty hard sometimes.

It looks like I will be by myself most of the day at work. My manager has every other Friday off because managers can do that and the one co-worker who is in the office today has her weekly half-day on Friday because employees can do that. So by noon, I will be running the department.

And what a reign it will be. If I had minions, this would be the time to start cracking the whips. I should never be put into a position of power over other people. I am very much in favor of jobs that have a high level of analytical thinking and autonomy, but I don’t like telling people what to do. It’s not that I have trouble directing people or organizing– I’m actually pretty damn good at those things (unless I am giving geographical directions). I just don’t like giving orders and I want to be nice to people and more subtle.

But anyway, it should be a bit busier this afternoon than it has been the past couple of days.

I am looking forward to the weekend. I’m planning to see Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, probably twice, and visiting people and making more solid plans about the future. I would really like to go out to breakfast or brunch on Sunday (for pancakes or French Toast), so I am thinking about asking people if they are up for something like that.
