Last night was quiet and productive, but not in the way I’d expected or planned, which is often (if not usually) the case. After work I met icespark for dinner, and then we went back to her house, supposedly for a quick stop before we went to my apartment so I could clean and journal.

However, icespark and I were both really tired, so we lie down for “just a few minutes” on the couch, and wound up sleeping until nine. When we got up, I realized that most of my plans for getting things done at home were out the window, so we decided to put icespark 's tax program to use, and I wound up getting my federal and state taxes filled out and printed, instead. I mailed them this morning, and I’m thinking when I get my return I might finally get a new laptop – especially since I just pwn3d my little one.

Work today was pretty quiet. S7@ and I got our new points-per-hour requirements, and since we’re both new to RCMAC repair, they’re starting out only half of what everyone else needs to make, and then they’ll up it every month until June, when we’re supposed to catch up with everyone else. Since the job is similar enough to my old one, I have no problem meeting my current new PPH in just a few hours, but alas that doesn’t mean I can just spend the rest of the time journaling and working on my Exiles campaign, as much as I’d like to. It does mean that I don’t have to stress about points for a while, though, which is nice. And, since S7@ is actually new, and I’m moving to the division that they forced G- to last time, I’m actually THIRD to last on the repair totem pole. THIRD to last! I’ve never had so much power. I hope it doesn’t go to my head. We’ll see what kind of schedule that provides me next month when I bid for the repair side for the first time. They have Saturday AND Sunday hours, so I’m not hopeful…

Tonight I’m having dinner and hanging out with lildomino . Happy Pi Day everyone, and happy Steak and BJ Day to everyone celebrating it. I'm off to Outback… >B^)

Just a reminder, for those who continue to forget…
“Bluntly contradicting the Bush administration, the commission investigating the Sept. 11 attacks reported … there was ‘no credible evidence’ that Saddam Hussein helped al-Qaida target the United States.”
