oof

My half-day of work ended 30 minutes early today when we ran out of student essays to rate. Luckily, ETS pays for the entire shift, even the un-worked 30 minutes, because it was ETS that cancelled.

I've got some errands to run today. My car is currently covered in a dusting of snow from yesterday's little snowfest, but I'm pretty sure the roads won't be a problem. Snow never passed beyond wuss levels.

In other news: Hooray! I've got a half-day of work tomorrow as well!

That "hooray" was sarcastic, in case you missed it. I despise working on the weekends. Avoided weekend work like the plague when I was living in Korea, but it's going to be inevitable over the next twelve months, I think, until I'm truly back on my feet, financially speaking. Quitting two jobs and not working for a year is hell on one's bank account-- especially if you follow up your dry period with a move. I owe a lot of people a lot of favors for helping out in all sorts of ways.

Back soon. For now, let us all stare lovingly at Paula Deen's Herbed Monkey Bread recipe.
