Who's NOT going to work today?
I am not out of work, I'm just NOT going to work today.

I may go out shopping for some new tee-shirts but for the most part I'm going to sit on my ass, play on the computer and watch CSPAN, maybe a movie this evening.

What are you going to do?

6. I've already worked . . .
from 5 a.m. to noon today, and so I'm going to hang out with my cat this afternoon, then watch "Kundun" on DVD tonight. (I've seen Kundun previously in German, but just received the English DVD in this morning's post! :bounce: )

30. Well, I'm consolidation a mess of payrolls from
20 different locations that lend and borrow employees from one another...

In order to get a true reading of payroll expense, I have to go in and adjust the figure based on real time work...

Great so far Huh,

Then I have to take that data and put it in a format to make it easier for the Accounting Clerk at the companies (I am a self employeed accountant) to enter the restructured data into MAS-90....

Then I have a tax return and two data bases to jumble around and print so a Client can see how much money he raised in his last judicial race....

Then My Nephew is coming over.....

Never Mind, I'm going back to bed

28. Public Health
Have to get some letters written - one to Dr's in the state and the other seeking in kind support to Home Improvement stores to see if they can help with a Public Health Campaign that I'm trying to set up in one area of the state.

:shrug: Now work your motivational magic on me :)

34. Sounds like a lost cause...
JUST KIDDING!

They're gonna love ya kid, now just ahead and whip them out while you're at home... it'll be easy now that you're surrounded by all of this positive energy!

Then you can go about enjoy the rest of your day and plan on going in to work tomorrow already knowing the letters were mailed the prior day by noon.

Good Luck!

There's a little part of me that still wishes I could have another free day to walk my dog in the woods and hang out on the DU messageboard and do whatever I want, but the bigger part of me is glad to go back.

Have a great day off!

But I'll miss those posts where everyone is watching C-SPAN and commenting.

I get a 4-day weekend after today. SO this is kinda like a Friday for me, since I had to cover for a work mate Fri and Sat.

Heh, if I didn't have this 4 day coming you can bet yer ass I'd be staying home today. :D

Enjoy yer day off!

39. I'm not going to work today.
It could be because I'm on vacation. It could be because I don't actually have a job. It could be some weird combination of both of those.

I'm not at my own house, so aside from a couple of loads of my own laundry, I don't even have housework to do.
