A sense of...
relief? satisfaction? These words aren't quite right, but I feel good.
Work has been hectic these past two days. We got a request in from a customer and my new business lead is breathing down my neck for answers. He stops by my desk every 10 minutes or it seems like it. I'm sorry, but the person you should be getting answers from is out of town on business (my direct boss). I'm sorry that I have to text him with my phone to his phone because he doesn't have access to work email or a work cell phone. I'm sorry things are not instantaneous. I'm sorry that I don't have complete knowledge of what you are asking for since it's not a project I work on.
I'm well aware of the deadline TWO fucking days from now. So stop bothering me which is what I finally said to him when he stopped at my desk for the 5th time today. "Please stop bothering me." I said please that should count right? He just stopped talking and tried to say because he was leaving he wanted an update. Whatever. He got the point and scampered away. YES!
Another work story:
The hubster and I were talking about hard and soft targets for saving last night at dinner. My direct boss was texting me about hard and soft sides for work numbers. These are not the same things. The hubsters hard and soft mean that soft targets are higher than hard targets. In work, it's literally soft and hard, so hard is higher than soft. That was a frustrating 20 minutes of text.
Only another 2 hours...

Berenstain Bears
I just read on CNN that the author of the Berenstain bears just died. So sad. Those book were a staple of my childhood. I remember my dad taking me to the discount bookstore and I would just stand in front of the Berenstain bear book display and just read them all. (Yes, my dad is quite frugal. We never bought any of them). I had no concept of time back then, but I could stand there for hours and just read and read. They never seemed to run out. If I ever have kids, I would want them to read them too.
God, I remember all of these. After perusing the Berenstain Bear website for these pictures, I didn't realize all the different issues they address for families: new babies, bullies, working parents, lying, cleaning up, and so much more. I love them and I want to read them now. Future Baby Stowell, you're in for a treat if and when you come into this world.
