Ah, Friday. Sweet beautiful Friday.

Tonight we are going to see Shanghai Knights. Don't laugh. Really, an unnamed co-worker has been talking about it for a month, so as a concession, some of us have made sure to keep our schedule clear just for that purpose. Anyway, that's that. And hopefully dinner if we get out of here on time. As for the rest of the weekend, well, I haven't really thought about it yet.

Work

Apparently I am leading a team that is getting trained by the NTSB all next week to learn how to read FAA radar so we can begin the tedious process of, well, finding stuff on the FAA radar. I don't know what's going to happen to all the other stuff I'm supposed to do (or update) and how I'm going to squeeze class in. Yesterday the education office said they would facilitate withdrawing us from our classes if we wanted to - I was momentarily tempted, but decided I need to stick it out, even though I didn't understand a single word of the last lecture and don't actually know when I'm going to find time to go to class, I imagine things will get more normal shortly. Or maybe I'm suffering some weird delusion.

Stop asking.

Irwin got in last night. Yes, I know this is the second time in a month he's visited - its out of convenience, he is on his way back from the career fair in Atlanta. To quell the questions that (scarily) multiple people keep asking me: We are friends. We used to be more than friends. There may have been some possibility to continue with this "more than friends" thing if he didn't FREAKIN' live in Seattle. So stop asking. Sorry, didn't mean to sound brash, but even my co-workers are asking now!
