Whew

Had my annual Personal Development Interview (preliminary to contract review) this afternoon. Insisted that I had been something of a slacker over the past year. Found out my time is almost fully booked for the next year (it was overbooked last year - much of the work didn't eventuate though).

On paper, it looks like I did a lot of really useful stuff. I look at the backlog of work sitting around around me (some of which I should be doing now rather than typing in LJ) and have difficulty believing I accomplished very much. Particularly when so much of it (rebuilding the company webpages) was rendered completely irrelevant by our sudden name and image change.

This week has been practically non-stop, and shows no signs of slowing. I think I'm going to be exhausted _before_ the 48 hour party starts. In fact, since I'm already exhausted, I'd say that's a certainty. Damn.

You know how you said you have a bad habit of selling yourself down? You are doing that now.
You deserve $200 000 a year. :Q) And a pet squirrel.

Huh? When did I say that?

I've spent a lot of the last several months at work sitting in front of the computer reading Roleplaying BBSs and Webcomics and LJ when I should have been in the lab. I'm paid quite well for the amount of work I actually do, I think.

My cat would eat a squirrel.

I wouldn't eat a squirrel. There doesn't seem much to them beyond fluffy tail.

You said it on a wednesday night. I distinctly rememeber it, which is unusual for me.
Squirrels take a lot of filetting.
