- So, one of my coworkers has unexpectedly had to take some time off, so I am filling in for her. Which means that, for at least the next couple weeks, I'll be only working at Kingston, approximately 40 hours a week. As that's more hours than I normally have and I get paid more to work at Kingston anyway, this is pretty damned awesome.
- Penultimate choir rehearsal tonight. I haven't felt really connected to the choir this session - part of it is that I didn't do any singing over the summer and my range atrophied a good bit. I still haven't got it back. But I think the concert's going to be pretty good and hopefully the spring will be better. I'll have to find somewhere to sing in the summer to keep my voice limber.
- Dear patron, I realize that I am wearing my hair up in what would probably be most accurately described as a snood, but it's still not really cool for you to come up to the desk and say, "Wow, you look really Amish today." I mean, what the hell am I supposed to say to that? (Also, I look awesome in my snood, so there.)
- I am almost done with Christmas shopping! I have one more person to shop for, and some stocking stuff, but that's it. (I do have Christmas knitting left, though I am giving up on the hat for [name redacted] till after Christmas. [name redacted] gets a hat IOU.)
- I actually get off an hour earlier than normal today (since I started earlier), which is great. Of course, I have to spend that hour eating dinner and driving to rehearsal, but it's nice not to have to rush on my way.
