My manager just told me that she might send me to backfill at one of our clients' sites. It would be menial and repetitive work, but it would only be for a short time (a week or two), and at least be something different than sitting around, reading journals, filling in self-tests, rating pictures and searching for various other things to do. She continued by saying that it's not definite; she may need me to cover some of her duties while she goes on vacation, and is concerned about losing me for a while. Now, as nice as that is to hear, what loss, I wonder? I don't use a picture of me napping just cuz it's funny or cute...! Quite frankly, I'm a bit surprised that I haven't yet been jolted back into reality during one of my 'busy days', only to find a drool pool on the desk.
Crap... does that mean I'll have to wear a tie?! I don't think I even own one...
How did it get to be Thursday already? The Folk Music Festival starts this eve... yay! I have volunteered to work as security, but was very dismayed to find out that I am not allowed to accost anyone... haha. I was just perusing through the festival booklet, and noticed that one of the managers is someone I went to school with. I'm thinking it was high school, but may have been as far back as junior high. How strange that looking at her picture, I would not have recognized her; once I had a name to connect with, her face did seem familiar. Why could I not pick her out without the name? She's changed enough, I guess, but still has traits that match up once I called on my previous notions. Still, seems strange...
I think that this will have to be my afternoon entertainment, since I, again, have nothing to do.
