I May or May Not Have the Power!
All sorts of fun today! At work, the phones went out in the morning and didn’t come back until the afternoon. (Not our fault, there was a problem with a circuit affecting several businesses.) Then at 11:30, the power went out in our building and buildings nearby; Duke Energy was having a rough day. That got fixed by 1pm. Was kinda hoping for the afternoon off.
Despite all those shenanigans, we cleared a lot of tickets because the three of us here in Tier 2.5 know what we are up to and work well as a team. Both the team lead and the IT head dropped by to express appreciation of our work; I eat that up. Tell me on a regular basis you’re really happy with the job I’m doing, and you’ll get even harder work from me.
When I got home, Roxy had to leave immediately to cover some errands with our friend Vikorgi, and I had an hour to shoot stuff on-screen, which I enjoyed immensely. Cleared some old quests, and tried to grind another level for a difficult task, but the XP in that zone wasn’t enough to really help. No matter, I love watching under-leveled bad guys drop like flies. Then The two of them returned and Roxy put together an amazing peanut chicken dinner. I practically gobbled it down.
Vikorgi wanted to watch “Minions”, and I have to say I don’t think it held up against the Despicable Me movies that preceded it, but whatever. I headed back to the bedroom for some writing, and out of nowhere my jerkbrain started screaming at me about everything in the world I felt at all insecure about, which flattened me. I forced myself to brain-medicate, which helped, but that’s a tranquilizer. After a long, busy day, the meds knocked me right out.
Here’s hoping the weekend is more productive on my personal projects.
