Rats & cats

January 18, 2018Categories Work1 Comment on Rats & cats

When I left for work yesterday, these were hanging out: My coworker had got these rats for our Halloween decorations and everyone fell in love with them that they've become a year-round decoration. We used them at Christmas and now we're using them for Valentine's Day (a bit early, but everyone wanted them up). It…

Dino costume appears again

January 8, 2018Categories Geekdom, Work3 Comments on Dino costume appears again

Today I brought my dinosaur costume to work, got in it, and surprised my department's meeting. They knew I was coming in to do something fun but they didn't know what so everyone laughed and cheered when I suddenly appeared through the door dressed as a t-rex. I even passed out calendars that I had…

Back to work 2018

January 2, 2018January 2, 2018Categories WorkLeave a Comment on Back to work 2018

First day back and it was great - over a week out and I came back to only 55 emails, half of them being spam. Can you say stress-free day? Not only that, but I started the morning with an absolutely gorgeous moon. Wow was it giant, bright, and vivid. No one could be upset…

Today I came in to the office to be greeted by a giant zucchini and some zucchini bread. I thought that was a nice way to start my day. Although I didn't take the giant zucchini home I did have fun taking a picture of it and just generally ogling the size of it. The…

A pretty decent week

October 17, 2015Categories WorkLeave a Comment on A pretty decent week

On Wednesday, the internet and phones were down when I got in to work. After waiting for a couple hours, we were informed it would be at least 4 to 6 hours before everything would be back up. So, after waiting another hour to see if anything changed and debating on what to do, the…

Guess what I have?

July 24, 2014Categories Work3 Comments on Guess what I have?

Business cards! I have my very own business cards. I'm not quite sure if I'll ever actually need them, or need 250 of them, but it's still cool that I have some. I feel a bit more official now. Does this mean I need a business card holder? Eh, I think I'll wait off on…

So one of the joys of working for the school system, in the position that I have, is that I get a Spring Break! Granted, I am not paid for this week, but at the moment I don't care. My manager said that I could go into work if I wanted to and she would…

Friday night I went out with my now old coworkers to celebrate my new job and say goodbye. We had a great dinner made even better by them making me my own terrarium! I am so excited and happy because I've wanted to have one for a while now but have never gotten the courage…
