sabineAh, April 1. The day to believe NOTHING of what you read on the internet. As for me, I'm still speaking truths as I see them.
Truth the First - OMG!Ow. I think I need to get K to fix me. There's something very wrong with my legs and neck. Probably two problems, unrelated to each other, and both exacerbated by getting loose and warm and working and then having to drive 45 minutes in a cold car to get home. Every Monday night I end up hobbling up the garage steps, begging Downwood to get me Advil and a heating pad so I can get rid of some pain before bed.
Truth the Second - I am DEEPLY pissed off at the government today. I work in medical IT (not news) and one of the big governmental regulatory changes is to move from ICD-9 as a diagnosis database to ICD-10. You know, the same switch the rest of the world made many years ago? The one that many millions of dollars have already been spent in preparing software and medical staff to make the switch? The one that was scheduled for 10/1 of this year? The one that's EATING MY BRAIN?! Yeah. Both the House and Senate approved a bill that will delay it to 10/1 of next year at the earliest with potential delays to go out even farther.
Fuck. This means that my sabbatical request for the end of September/beginning of October next year will likely be denied. And then I'll have to talk to my sister to decide if we want to go to Germany just because or if we want to wait until 2016 so that we can go to Oktoberfest.
Truth the Third - Welcome to Night Vale continues to delight me. I'm emotionally involved with these fictional characters. I wish I could go to one of their live shows, but that requires both money and travel and dealing with other people. Still, these podcasts make me happy.
Truth the Fouth - Okay, so ThinkGeek's annual April 1 email is kind of interesting. Not sure that I really want to buy any of the products, should they go forward with them, but it's amusing.
Truth the Fifth - I will not beat myself up over getting a fancy coffee this morning. Tuesday mornings are always rough, since I get home so very late on Monday night. I had to be at work early this morning, too, to shepherd my customer through a transition morning, so morale demanded fancy coffee and extra caffeine. Also, caffeine is my mistress and I obey.
I think that's all. I'm going to continue babysitting my customers and probably apply my Planets nail wraps today. Good times.
