wordinistaOkay, so it's been a busy week -- my cousin and his family (who I haven't seen in two years) is down for a visit, and last week was my and Tora's 3rd wedding anniversary (THANK YOU FOR THE WELL-WISHES!!!1!). So the extent of my involvement with all things internet-related has been ... well, Twitter, pretty much. That's it.
I just spent an hour catching up on people's LJ posts. YIKES.
Anniversary was pretty geektastic and awesome -- we went to see TF2, then went for sushi at this fantastic little Thai place. Then we were off to GameStop, where I got George the [Prototype] game (WHICH DOES NOT RUN ON OUR 360 AND BRINGS UP THE RROD, WTF), and then we were off to Barnes & Noble (I got two Kelley Armstrong paperbacks) and the comic book store (got caught up on my BtVS S8 TPBs [kudos to anyone who understood any of that]).
George went back to work yesterday (he was supposed to have all of last week off, but worked Sat/Sun and was on call Mon/Tues, so he took an extra day). Yesterday there was a meeting to discuss the mistakes made during the past year, and what to do about them, and how to have a more successful upcoming year.
Sadly, during a meeting lasting from 10 AM to 4:30 PM, THERE WERE STILL THINGS THAT DIDN'T GET TOUCHED ON. Sigh.
Afterward, everyone was all :D!!! and optimistic and chipper about the meeting, and how this year is going to be different, and so on and so forth. Except George, who was sitting at his desk, watching R&C pat each other on the back. When someone asked, "So how do you feel about things, George?" He was like, "...Well, I guess we'll just have to see how things play out." Because he has absolutely no faith in R&C when it comes to leadership issues. (And, WTF, Charity is now an "Operatons Manager"? Um, what? WHAT?)
Have had fun with cousin and his family in the meantime, and have been spoiling them with baked goods because I can.
Gramps went in for surgery yesterday to remove the tumors. The doc says it went well. I'm sure he'll agree when he's not in pain and miserable.
...Anyone care to tell me what happened in the RPS wank that I kept seeing mentioned in various folks' journals? Inquiring minds want to know. All I've been able to ascertain is that someone was a douchebag and participated in behavior that was douchey. Which. Narrows it down not at all, this being the internet and all, and RPS being a haven for douchery.
