Bored

I SHOULDN'T be posting, but I'm bored.
I have to work at CPA #2s tonight. I just Googlemapped it and the directions are a whole new way for me to get there. In fact, it takes me down a road I've always wondered "Where TF does that road go?" so I'm stupidly excited about it.



*sighs* what else?

I haven't got a lick of anything done in the past two days. It's like I get home, make dinner, watch TV then WHOOPS, it's 11PM, and time to get ready for bed. That's stupidly PATHETIC. AND I think it's an issue. I think I'm sleeping TOO much. I've been getting at least 7 hours these past few days and it's near to impossible to get up. I'm trying to keep track of the weekends, of the whens and hows of my natural sleep patterns. Unfortunately it also has to do with WHEN I got to bed, and not how long I sleep, really. I'd prefer to go to bed around 1:30/2 AM and get up around 9 or 10AM. THAT is not good for my work load.

I have the 8AM meeting tomorrow too. That's going to suck. I have a feeling I'm going to be late. I will say I've been VERY good about getting up for it. I haven't been late, although it's been close a couple of times. Getting here at 8 when the meeting really starts at 8:15 is FINE I think. We'll see what happens when my alarms go off at 7. or 6:30.

I probably could do a work post, about some observations. But for the most part, I'm actually HAPPY. I got my time off two weeks ago, the direct deposit works out very well, I've been being good with money and stuff. I'm getting to work, getting work done. I feel I shouldn't be ON this thing too much, as once i Get down to the dregs of my work it's hard to actually want to do it. I've also made a decision that I NEED to start leaving on time. That my "work til it's done" ethic is NOT a good one to foster. Yes if I have a deadline and I have stuff to do, or during heavy report days, sure, but this month actually went well. I hate to say it, but I don't have enough to do. THAT will not be a problem, as we're getting in new clients and I will be knee deep in stuff soon.

What else?

Have I cursed the timing of WGT lately? yeah, there's A LOT I want to do, and the timing has to be perfect!
- WGT of course! That's the one I won't miss
- I'd LOVE to be in London for BMovie, I'm hearing awesome things about that
- I'm hoping for an offer for a get-together from kittygoth so I can meet all these people on my friends list!
- The Tuesday Calling night in Cambridge, with my pet emarkienna Plus seeing the nice people in Cambridge who ALL come out to buy me beer! *winks*
- dropping by the base in Italy to badger [Unknown site tag] and wanderingsprite and hopefully drag them to WGT.

ALL of this is SO up in the air, since it's such a long wait (Next June, talk about advance planning!) I mean between my work schedule (I have an ebb and flow and I HAVE to work with it) L's "work" schedule (I can't realy pick hiim up and drag him anywhere from the desert. Dammit.) and just the general "will this night even be running!" and that makes for a frustrated and flustery Leo.

Bah. I'm going to TRY not to think about it, but I DO want to put together an itinerary, so I can start looking at prices. I need to know how much I need to have available. And just in case there's a pile of people who can actually afford to go, I need ot get them advance warning. I'm thinking of using the power of a group to get some better airfare rates, but part of me JUST wants to make it all available and say YOU deal with it! (I WILL need some WGT veterans to help me with those plans. Hopefully, I can havre that adventure with poetman like we've talked about!)


Anyway. I got myself all caught up in that, so I'm going to go back to work. I JUST got a call about a stupid audit for next week. Which is going to be a bitch to prepare for. *grumble*

Just so you know some dates...

B Movie is the second Friday of each month - ie, 9 June, so I'm guessing that's not good timing :( But there are other London clubs...

If I've calculated this right, The Calling will be on 23 May, 6 June (and Wake Up Screaming on the other Tuesdays).

And it's kitty_goth, not kittygoth ;)

you're going to get a spanking! Stop correcting me!

*evil grin*

Actually, it WOULD work out if I screw work over. Which might happen. I REALLY like the idea of doing all that. We'd be in Leipzig on Friday June 2, and then in London for Friday June 9.

It's a long way off. BUT, I was reading americansinleipzig.com and there are a WHOLE buncha things going on at the same time, so I'm going to be booking a hotel room damn soon. Might I assume you'd be OK with sharing room and cost with me? I might go for a 2 person room JUST for us, but it depends, I need to speak to Lou about it first.

Some sort of soccer thing. *shrugs* let me know if you hear anything.
*snuggles* you pain in my ass *smirks**slaps*

Gah, that's annoying about the other events happening. Will try to speak to you soon about it, but yes of course I would love a room with you and will pay the necessary money (I can book it too if that makes things easier).
