boogiewoogiebuglegal...in other words, I'm on vacation until Monday, praise the deity of your choice [here]
So far, I've been spectacularly unproductive, but I figure, that's what vacation is, right? :D I've gotten some writing done on Chapter Nine (which is turning out to be a challenging, but fun, chapter) and I've been (apparently) an excellent lap for the cats, but that's been about it. I was going to make bread (which I like doing) but couldn't find the attachment for my mixer---so maybe I'll try to find that.
Or not.
This is the first time I've taken intentional time off (as opposed to, you know, being sick enough to stay home and/or almost be admitted to the hospital) since I transferred. I am really hoping I don't walk into a buzzsaw come Monday, because I've got one cow-irker who seems to be holding some unspecified grudge against my existence, and a supervisor who pretty much told me not to piss her off because she didn't want to hear about it while I was out. Mmmkay. Let's hear it for adults handling their shit like adults, shall we? And yet, I'm still on probation, so there's not a lot I can say until that's done.
But this is the situation---I have the time on the books, I *need* a bloody vacation, and yet...I'm worried even now that I'll be punished for not being there even though I did everything I could to make sure I wasn't leaving work for someone else to handle.
