Tuesday: bittersweet

Layoffs were today. Ben and I still have our jobs (yay). However, a lot of people that we know and one person that we would consider an outside of work friend were laid off. I expect both of us will end up doing a lot of interacting with these people over the next few weeks which could be awkward.

I'm sure in a few days we'll be back to our normal selves, but in the meantime we're a bit bummed. We're still anxiously awaiting news on one more friend too, but he was on vacation so we haven't heard anything.

Monday

Monday, Monday.

I'm not really looking forward to tomorrow.

My toes are cold. The low tonight is supposed to be 49ºF.

Sunday

Nothing very exciting to report today. It was a nice day.

Saturday

It was a nice Saturday. I did some chores, trimmed some trees, napped, watched a movie, played some games. A pretty normal Saturday, but they sure are nice.

Wednesday: work and toes

I got more work today! I expect it'll keep me busy for a few (W-F) weeks. Yay! Ben and I proceeded to have a fairly long discussion about code and how it shouldn't be stream of consciousness (like it is currently). I plied him with questions and might try fixing it M-T if my manager thinks it is non-work related enough. (It doesn't have to be fixed, but it would help to increase my skills.) (I know that second to last sentence is weird, but it is what I meant).

I also took the wrappings off my toes. They look a lot like they did, except redder and lower. I had to wash my hair in the kitchen sink because I can't get them wet yet. It was rather awkard, but my hair is clean now.

Tuesday: rounding and toes

9:30am

Today I found myself with rounding problems. I got into work at 7:45. At 8:24 I thought to myself, it’s almost been an hour! Then I calculated the amount of time I’ve actually been here, which is 39 minutes…not even close to an hour.

It’s almost snack time! And I get to leave early!

1:15pm

Then later in the day it was 1:03. I was leaving at 3:45.

“Alright! Only two more hours!”

Or not.

4:30pm

I got my two large toenails removed. I was going to take a picture, but waited too long and now the bandages don't look so good. Both are well wrapped though :)

7:00pm

Last week I wanted to play ultimate Frisbee, and everyone was in for that since we hadn't played for a while. Then I realized that I wouldn't really be able to run because of my toes. Then it started downpouring so I couldn't even stand outside. Which ended up being ok because no one else wanted to play in the rain. We ended up going to Friendlies for ice cream. :)

Sunday: sadness

Aaron and Heather announced today that they are going to be taking a job at another church. I'm excited for their new opportunity, but will miss them a lot.
