And invoking Ganesha again, I suppose
Wondering how to go about an unpleasant, if necessary, task, without it turning into a. . . a thing. You know, where a bad situation gets worse despite (or possibly, because of) the best efforts of everyone involved.
Well, that was vague and pointless. . .
Left work at 1 this morning. This, after leaving at midnight the night before, and at 11 on Tuesday. I'm not liking this trend. I'm not liking this trend at all.
That, and as I pointed out, I'd been brought in to do data entry, and my responsibilities have gone waaaay beyond that at this point, but I'm still being paid the same amount. Well, time and half for everything beyond 40 hours, which I'm pretty sure I've already hit, and there is not-so-idle talk of working Saturday and Sunday, but still. . . no, not sure what my point is there either.
Torn between getting much-needed work done on the Focus before returning it -- the lease is up a month from tomorrow -- or doing the road trip thang again, seeing as I'm so far below the miles I paid for on the thing that a cross-country trip wouldn't be a drop in the bucket. Or out of the country, but Vancouver is very, very far away, and Texas is in the opposite direction, and even I have my limits. I think. Don't push 'em too often, so it's hard to tell.
Don't suppose anyone has the comments threads from Turning the Tide archived or in cache? Went to try wading through the mess, and apparently the right-wingers succeeded in getting comments turned off and removed. I'm sure they're very proud of themselves, but refuse to check LGF to confirm this.
Strongly reconsidering my previous position that it's possible to still be friends with people you disagree with politically, if this sort of behavior is seen as acceptable on their part.
Babbling. Sleep-deprived, obviously, and the weather here is hopping like water on a hot griddle.
We now return to your previously scheduled, oddly silent, Free For All Friday, already in progress.
