Omg today is the best day ever! It's reveal day, which in itself is a major bright spot, but I also discovered the best movie ever! Did you guys know they made a Staw Wars holiday made for TV movie? It appears to be the most wonderful cluster duck of all time. DH and I cannot stop laughing. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Wars_Holiday_Special I need to see this! how are you all doing today?

LINGERLONGER, I've heard of it but never seen it! Something about Bea Arthur as a singing alien? I need to check that out. Today should be a good day, I think. Campus is gloriously quiet, meetings are getting canceled left and right, and I only have 3.5 days until the Christmas break begins! I need to submit my chapter before I leave, but it's actually in pretty good shape, I think.

That movie sounds...interesting lol.
Nothing super exciting going on here. H and I finished our Christmas shopping yesterday (woot!), so now I just need to wrap a few things. I'm putting it off because the cats love to scratch up presents. (They don't bother the tree, but wrapping paper is like catnip to them.)

It is apparently described as the movie that nearly killed the franchise. Lmao! I can't wait to see this shit. We don't have a tree this year but KL has pretty much left it alone when we had them. He does like to climb into it sometimes though. But I cannot leave presents under the tree because they fucking infuse catnip into that shit. I swear. Lol.

Gift bags, on the other hand: She just looks so proud of herself.

efmcc67 , now imagine that was a box. Lol! Somewhere (but I think only on film) I have a picture of her as a kitten under the Christmas tree skirt. She would pull it out from under the tree, crawl under it, but sneak through the house as if she thought we couldn't see her. You know, bright red piece of fabric with a cat's face underneath. Happens all the time.

My sister's cat likes to hide under throw rugs, as if you can't see a huge lump right there. Lol.

Today is kind of crazy.
Our Monday meeting was cancelled, but nobody told me. Luckily it's just a call, so I was the asshole that called in and there was no one there. Better than having showed up to an empty conference room, but still. Annoying.
I'm glad SS3's graduation is over. The way PEW acts makes me so sad for H. She has been such a shit stain this year that he had no desire to be in the same room with her. I don't blame him one single bit, but we saw the kids for about 5 minutes all weekend and it's looking like we may not even see all of them at the same time at all for "Christmas" because none of them (H included) are capable of picking up the fucking phone to communicate and make a plan.
One trick pony alert. I'm annoyed at Boss, probably preemptively, but annoyed none the less. He was being cagey af last week, my days are dwindling to the deadline I gave him for when I want to stop driving to the office, no laptop has appeared (or any plan or anything), he's supposedly starting his new position next week and I have no idea who my new boss is (probably because they haven't hired someone yet). So I'm here doing leave planning that feels like I'm quitting my job.

righthandman, I'm sorry to hear about YH's ex creating problems, and that you may not see all three SS together for Christmas. Also sorry about your boss. I can't blame you for being annoyed. Is there any way you can nudge him?

Ah fuck. One of my bandages tore off a minute ago. It had the fucking stitch tape stuck to it. Now the stitches are exposed. For real now they need to tell me I'm done with the bandages tomorrow.

Thank you. Me too. They didn't give us enough or show DH how to replace them so he ended up needing to use regular bandaid type bandages and they don't stick nearly as well as the clear tape stuff we should have used. They keep rolling up and ripping off, but not quickly like a bandaid should be removed.

I have an interview this afternoon so I'm feeling a little nervous about that. This is also the first Monday of break so it is strange feeling and I still have those, aren't I suppose to be somewhere (in class) feelings. I'm sorry your boss hasn't been more communicative righthandman. I hope you can be done with the bandages soon.
