hooray! pour vendredi

When I woke up this morning, I was disappointed to learn that our building was open for business. I had the pleasure of leaving work around noon yesterday and working from home, which is always relaxing. I got paid, yet I was cuddling with Luke and watching the Real World reunion while I worked. I think I was considerably more productive from my couch than I was earlier in the day on the ninth floor (snow is always distracting). Since I already had my laptop at home, I was crossing my fingers that I'd hear a snow closure bulletin when I called in this morning. How disappointing. Totally open. When I peeked outside I knew I was perfectly capable of making it to work on time as the roads were completely clear. Bummer.

Regardless of the initial disappointment at 6 o'clock this morning, my day has gotten progressively better. Since it's Friday, I leave work at noon (so how much complaining can I really get away with?). Also, all four of my bosses are out of the office today. When does that ever happen (answer: never)?? I just listened to a voicemail from the City of Richmond retracting their claim that we still owe them 2006 property taxes - in fact, they owe us $250! Awesome. Steve just texted me saying that he'll be home around 5 o'clock and, would I like to go see 27 Dresses tonight? Of course I would (best husband ever)!

The only downside to my relaxing afternoon working from home? There's ketchup underneath my down key (troublesome) and a bit of dog slobber on my screen (disgusting).
