Birthday Week

For my birthday this year I’m getting a great present. The Interruptor’s last day is Monday. Woo hoo! They finally had to let her go because of budget woes (and her incompetence). It makes me so happy even though I’m going to have to do part of her job. I just don’t care.

Oh, I also got a lovely check from my folks, a late-night-for-him phone call from my little brother, a funny voice mail at work at 4:30amET from Joanna and the kids along with various email greetings. I also got an espresso chocolate bar and a gorgeous little book, Heirlooms: Letters from a Peach Farm, by David Mas Masumoto, the father of one of our board members) at the all-staff meeting yesterday.

We had Monday off for Cesar Chavez Day which just happened to be Opening Day for many baseball teams so I took advantage and watched baseball all day. It was lovely pre-birthday gift.
