my friday

Tomorrow is a vacation day for me, so today is my Friday. And just in time. It's been such a busy week at work, and today especially, that it feels like it should have been Friday anyway. Today was the only day I didn't work particularly late, but then again I was in meetings from 10:00 straight through until 4:00, which meant working through lunch, so in a sense I did work late anyway.

On the positive side, I accomplished a great deal, and when I left today knowing I wasn't coming back in tomorrow, I felt like I really deserved the break and that I'd done a full week's work regardless. I also was told by my boss that the executive director singled out for praise some work I'd done for her--at night and over the weekend--the previous week, and my boss pointed out to her that I'd even been sick at the time that I managed to pull it off. So I am appreciated, even if it's not always made so clear.

About me

Thom Watson was born in a "pro-America" part of the country but then grew up to become a gay, liberal, Harvard-educated atheist living in northern California. He has come to terms with the fact that this pretty much disqualifies him from ever holding public office.
