I’m having a hard time convincing myself that I’m not off work for the next few days. It’s not that I’m particularly in need of a break, this week has been much gentler than the last few. Maybe it’s just work hangover. But today I left at noon and went home to finish my day on the couch.
Part of my confusion must be that Damon’s little brother is coming for a visit starting tonight. Damon’s days off are Thursday and Friday so we’ve been laying out fun things to do with him. Maybe it hasn’t sunk in that I’m not actually going along on the daytime portion. But it’s going to let Damon and Jeremy spend some nice alone time and then can talk about whatever brothers talk about. I like Jeremy. I keep wanting to say ‘He’s a nice kid’ but he’s 22 now, so I guess I’m going to have to surrender that soon. I spent some time touching up the office so that he’ll be comfortable. When I say ‘office’ it sounds like a lousy room to sleep in. But our office is possibly the cosiest one in the apartment. I’ve got an overstuffed chair in there and a little carpet and walls and walls of books. Just in case you were thinking of visiting and then reconsidering when realizing that you’re going to have to sleep in the office and that it would be unpleasant.
Oh man, I should have logged out. I’m getting messages from work that they need me to write something pretty please right away. And now our Horoscopes partner (on the west coast) has “a few quick questions…” Off I go!

Your problem is not that you were convinced today was Friday, but rather that you failed to convince other people as well.
Next time, you’ll know the proper tactic, and we’ll all get a long weekend.
