It's pouring out. Raining raining raining. We need the rain quite badly, of course. Supposedly this is a Nor'easter. (If you don't want to check the link, think hurricane but colder.) It doesn't feel like one...it's lacking the bone chilling cold, and the scary winds...the kind that meant taping the windows and making sure everything that could fly outside was inside or tied down. I miss those kinds of grey storms...they were thrilling but scary, and to go out and watch the water at the beach or the harbor and see the waves, and the churning...the foam and the boats. It just doesn't feel wintry enough for this to be a Nor'Easter.
I'm feeling sloppy today. I put clothes on, black jeans, purple shirt and a sweater. The sweater I hadn't worn since last summer, but it was in fact one of my favorites. It's big. Not so big that I can't really wear it to work (yet) but getting there. It certainly doesn't fit the way it did when I bought it two years ago. The shirt though, I bought earlier this summer. And it's big and baggy...and I didn't realize until after I'd left the house that it looked messy. Granted, I was rushing a bit this morning, but I only bought this shirt earlier this summer. And now I'm not sure it's neat enough for work. I can tuck it in and button my sweater if I want....it'll do. But Blech. My clothes just perpetually irritate me...nothing fits right. That used to be just a PMS thing....now it's a most of the time thing. Yesterday, I stopped to buy pantyhose on the way home...it's cooled off, so I kinda need to start wearing hose again or I'll be cold and my shoes will irritate me (not sandal weather really anymore.) I tried on a cute outfit, in a style that used to work, and it doesn't anymore. I was annoyed, too-it was on sale, and it had a jacket that was cut right...short torso and short arms. Feh. Clothes. Can't go naked all the time though.
Hrm...more irritating boss-ness to report. She's got me filling out paperwork incorrectly. And I know it's incorrect. The bottom of one of our consent forms has three parts to fill in. Pre Test Date (which you do when you do the test) Post test date (when you give the results) and the client ID, which comes from the lab slip...that number goes in like four different places on the paperwork. The first and third info you fill out when you do the form...the middle piece should be filled in on the date you actually give results. Instead, she's got me filling in the date that the person is scheduled to get results...which is wrong. If someone is scheduled to get results on 10/19, and doesn't show, that paper shouldn't say that they got results on 10/19...should it? This is a potentially bad situation. Suppose, for arguments sake that we had a client with positive results. That client then did something where he/she infected smeone else, and for some reason got prosecuted under the laws about infecting other people. Well, according to our records, (which could be traced since we do confidential not anonymous testing) that person knew his/her status...even if he/she never came to get results. (I see a problem here, do you?)
hrm...other random worky-things...
The pregnant boss thing-she was in crazy tears today because she'd misplaced some papers. This is going to be a long six months.
Oh, and does anyone happen to have the date for the high heel races? I can't seem to find out if they're 10/22 or 10/29....but I wanna go.
