1. El Presidente is visiting Ground Zero. Ground Zero is just across the river from my work. So I get to hear helicopters and military aircraft all day.
2. The receptionist was out yesterday & today, & probably tomorrow. While I don’t miss her as a person, I miss the small amount of work she does. Because now I have to do it. It’s easy but time consuming, and essential for the rest of my job. Since she does so little work around here, there is a buildup up several days’ worth, and the end of the month is busy already. The phones ring the same as they would if she was here because she doesn’t answer them anyway.
3. I hurt my shoulder somehow yesterday, and it continues to hurt. In fact, the pain grows by the minute. I’ve taken lots of drugs, but all that’s accomplished is to make me a little sick.
4. One of the people at my work is organizing a fundraiser for the American Liver Foundation, and per her email: “I looked on your website and your jewelry is beautiful! We would be very grateful for a donation.” So now I’ve got a project and I want to get started because I have OCD like that.
5. I have to take the GRE on Saturday and I have not studied since Sunday. I should probably get on that.
So you see, it’s a much better stay-at-home day than it is a go-to-work day.

#6 - my new phone will be delivered today and I want to play with it. But it's being delivered to work... oh poo.
I just saw the funny comment you left me and my answer is YES I want a cat that can steal food. I already have a dog who steals food. OK-I'm a sucker for animals that behave badly...hope you're having a good day!
you need to read your comments more often, dear!
Those are all very fine reasons to not want to be at work. I didn't know that Bush was here today. Weird.
Oh man, good luck on the GRE! I know you'll do well, and I also know how nervewracking it can be. Take a snack, and don't forget to breathe...
