Today was a slow day at work. Not the bad kind of slow day. It was a good slow day. I saw two families multiple times in the building. It was like seeing old friends or something.

However, someone hired the drama llama because man, the staff drama is totally ridiculous. It’s like high school. Ugh. I think I need to hide from staff tomorrow, impossible as that will be with all the meetings.

My bento was every bit as lovely as I thought it would be. Tomorrow’s is leftover chicken with garlic cream sauce, leftover mashed taters, banana yogurt, applesauce, and… mini marshmallows. My cutesy little fork fits in the lid, which is good because chopsticks are great with veggies and rice and chicken, but not so much with other things. Oh, the veggies were amazing. If you go to Trader Joe’s, pick up the vegetables in balsamic butter sauce. It’s in the frozen section. It’s awesome.

I also had a chance to make dinner for someone last night. This means I’m pining even more for my own place. I want to cook for people. It’s fun cooking for family but I really want to have a standing night that I cook for whichever friends show up. But I must be patient. I must wait till May. I am paying better attention to “For Rent” signs. I think I will start photographing them when I get the chance so I can review my options.

I got my vote on today! Hope everyone did!

Today I went in to work. Yes. On a Monday. I don’t do Mondays. But I did today. It was just for a couple soul-sucking meetings of sheer doom. Actually, they weren’t bad. The first one kept falling off topic when we could have just divided and conquered. However, I did get some more offers of assistance from another department for my persistent work issue. That was good.

Had to present something during the bigger meeting. That was nerve wracking but went okay. My favorite word was brought up: BONUS. Yes, I’m getting one. Exciting.

In a few minutes I’ma try to post a music review, unless I get distracted (which is bound to happen, btw). I’m going to try to locally host every song I review (except stuff that is meant for purchase). I have loads of bandwidth and disk space available, so I should use it a little.
