This much work!



Possibly less. Today I was late in even by my standards*. Tomorrow I am going to be there on time, try to blast my way through the remaining items on the "essentials" list**, and get out at the end by c. 1 o'clock, which if I can achieve it will make the things that I have to do at home significantly more manageable. And then freedom for a fortnight!


*My boss and I have what I once articulated as an "informal agreement on a flexible start time".

**Hopefully while proof-reading them, as I am now sufficiently tired to be making significant mistakes in both speech and type.

ETA: Lunchtime escape hasn't happened. Thing I thought would be quick, wasn't. Can't really complain as only decided yesterday to do this and miscalculation of time involved my fault. But wish I had realised in time to actually go and have a lunch break. Will now dash to shop for sandwich as blood sugar no longer being sustained by chocolate cake. But no point in wasting half day's leave on a couple of hours, and would be too tired by time reached home, and lost daylight, to do what I planned anyway. Still, bugger.

I am very pleased for you (while at the same time being just a leetle bit jealous of how little work you have left ;-) )

I have got to the point of thinking that as it is impossible to do everything that I need to, I shall stick to the things that are keeping the sky up.

You too, huh?

IT's not that I'm a late riser, so much as a slow and knackered one. I start the term with good intentions, and go downhill from there!

Oh no! I'm really sorry your planned afternoon off wasn't. Time to pour out a glass of wine and glower at the world.

I am taking solace in the warm glow of virtue and the last of the whisky.
