One of the bonuses (boni?) of having a job you love is that TGIF doesn't quite carry the same weight as it does for most people. Well, most of the time, anyway.
Today is an exception. I want out of here in the worst way...my patience for the usual antics is at an all time low, and the fuse is short. This is not the fault of the students or of anything in particular....I just DON'T WANT TO WORK TODAY!
And I have a shitload of work; it always gets a bit top heavy as we rush towards the end of the year. I kind of thought I'd do stuff on the weekend, but as we used to say in high school:
There are several things that will ensure my lack of productivity this weekend. They are, in no particular order:
So, to summarize:

Fuck that noise!
There are several things that will ensure my lack of productivity this weekend. They are, in no particular order:
- Friday Night Blogger Donkament.
As IronGirl says, it's the cheapest therapy around. And it is ... are you tired of being harassed by donks? Play this, release your own personal inner donk and blow a few bucks. Deets: Full Tilt, 9 EST, $1 + 1 rebuy, PW = donkarama. - Hunny Bunny has no work scheduled until Monday.
- A phone call to the Martini Goddess.
Items #2 and 3 led to a conversation with Hunny Bunny about a ride over the weekend and where should we go? We haven't really explored the east of us to any great extent, and according to this site, there are some good roads in that direction. Martini Goddess and her Consort live out that way, so a quick call and a not-too-subtle hint (I don't do subtle; you know that) later and we now have plans to stay over and hang out. There are claims that MG has perfected her chocolate martini recipe; methinks this is a claim that requires personal corroboration.
So, to summarize:
Sun + Weekend off + Motorcycles + Friends + Martinis > Work.
as the Grateful Dead say... I may be going to Hell in a Bucket but at least I'm enjoying the ride.. Enjoy the day and the ride, be safe and see you tonite.
as i told the Goddess..expect a phone call :)
OOOOHHH, OOH, OOh Chocolate Martinis? Do you think your friend would mind if I came too?
Have a nice weekend!
